Former President Donald Trump’s granddaughter Kai provided a glimpse inside the family’s Mar-a-Lago election night watch party — celebrating “his last time running,” which made it “so special for him to win.”
Kai Trump, 17, has become an avid YouTube vlogger over the last month and shares tidbits of her life with her 136,000 subscribers. On Monday, she posted an election night vlog leading up to Donald Trump’s landslide win.
En route to the Florida resort, Kai Trump revealed that she listens to Abba’s “Money, Money, Money” every time she drives through the gates.
Once inside, Kai Trump panned the camera around the room, which was filled to the brim with close friends and family. They were all dressed to the nines and watched across four televisions — all airing a different network — as the returns rolled in.
Man of the hour Donald Trump popped in to take a picture with his family and invited a lingering Elon Musk to join.
“We have to get Elon with his boy. Gorgeous perfect boy,” Kai Trump captured her grandfather saying.
From the watch party, Kai Trump headed over to the Palm Beach Convention Center to see her friends, who made brief appearances on the vlog before she was ushered away in advance of the Trump victory.
“I think we got it in the bag,” she said shortly before she stopped filming for the evening.
She didn’t finish her vlog until almost a week after Election Day because they were just celebrating as a family away from the public eye, Kai Trump said.
“I’m extremely proud of him. I think he deserves it more than anyone in the whole entire world. And he really has worked his butt off every single day for the past, really, eight years,” she said in the vlog.
She also touched on how he has inspired her and helped foster her work ethic.
“When I grew up I just wanted to be like him, and just fight like him and don’t take any days off and just keep on working, work my butt off just like how he does, and it’s just truly incredible,” she said.
Kai Trump’s hopeful for her grandfather’s future presidency and is looking forward to his final term in the White House.
“It’s his last time running so it was so special for him to win because he really deserves this, and after what everyone has put him through, it made me tear up like after him winning Pennsylvania, I just started like tearing up, knowing that he made it and he finally just fought back and he won,” she said.
“He won the race and I’m really excited to see what he’s going to do for the next few years, I think he’s gonna kill it.”
