An unexpected new star is rising in the president-elect’s family.

Since then, she has become an outspoken supporter of her grandfather and the feeling is definitely mutual.

Kai’s Instagram includes a number of pictures of her and Trump enjoying their mutual passion for golfing.

Trump’s broad smile was a hit with followers.

“He’s genuinely happy and I love to see it!”

Another agreed, “President Trump always has the biggest smile with his grandchildren.”

Tiffany, raised in California by mom Marla Maples, spent even less time with her dad.

Nor does Trump often show that beaming grin at the sight of his wife Melania.

The married Trump children also show more affection toward their spouses than their dad does toward wife Melania Trump.

Indeed, the grandparent-grandchild relationship can be easier to maintain than the parent-child one.
