Eric Trump made a promise: he wouldn’t rule out his father running for a third term, or even consider a 2028 run of his own. He said this on the “Pod Force One” podcast, discussing “how we’ve gotten really good at fighting” and the Trump family’s future in politics.
In the interview, the Trump scion talked about several key points that grab listeners:
- 2028 politics: Eric said the “Trump 2028 cap” could be about Donald or could be about Eric or Donald Jr. He added that the Republican Party has turned into a “party of fighters,” and he admires how his dad “taught people how to fight.”
- Family legacy: He hinted that all his siblings could end up in politics. “Everyone probably has a future in politics, frankly,” he said.
- Cryptocurrency windfall: Reporters are looking at the Trump family’s crypto business. Some estimates say the family made more than $800 million in sales from cryptocurrency this year—a figure first reported by Reuters. Democrats are already talking about investigations should they regain control of the House in 2026.
- Banking challenges: Eric recalled the family being “debanked” by major banks (Bank of America, Chase) as they moved into crypto. He framed it as a necessary step because “we didn’t have a choice.”
- Security and celebrations: He linked political attacks to unexpected benefits, pointing to his dad’s famous, stoic mugshot at Fulton County Jail—a moment that helped energize African‑American voters. He also reminded listeners that Donald Trump survived two assassination attempts in 2024, one of which left him with a gunshot wound in the ear.
- Unresolved questions: After the 2024 shooting, several family members expressed frustration over the investigation into the attacker’s motives. Eric said he “remains pissed off” and hasn’t had the answers he wants.
- Future Trump campaign slogans: Eric revealed that his team played around with red hats that read “2028” and came up with the phrase “Rewrite the rules” as a potential campaign slogan.
The conversation fits into a larger story about the Trump family’s continued political ambition and the questions surrounding their business interests. Fans and critics alike are watching closely as the family gears up for what they hope will be another strong bid in 2028.
