The current state of US politics, with its accompanying dramas and side-stories that read like the script of an award-winning Hollywood blockbuster, makes the future very difficult, if not impossible to predict.

Given his speculated ties to the notorious Epstein files – which still have not been released – there are those willing to predict Trump might be fortunate to even reach the end of his second presidential term, let alone be able to lay the groundwork for a Republican dynasty that would stretch far beyond his presidential expiry date of January, 2029.

Trump, of course, likely yet envisages a future wherein the political vehicle that he set into motion continues to mow down all in its path. Indeed, the person sitting at the helm of such a vehicle may even share his name.

It’s long been speculated that one of the POTUS’ children might look to take up the reins when he eventually sets them down. The likes of Donald Trump Jr. and Ivanka Trump were heavily involved in their father’s first term in the Oval Office, though neither have expressed a strong desire to make their own inroads into politics as yet.

During a recent interview with Fox News’ Laura Ingraham – wherein the two of them toured the White House – Trump was asked which of his children might follow in his political footsteps
