'Fox & Friends' host predicts: Donald Trump Jr will have 'a great political future'
Brian Kilmeade of “Fox & Friends” backed the US President’s first son to have a great political career in the future.
The co-host made the remark after finishing a conversation with Donald Trump Jr., in which he talked about Democrats being anti-capitalist.
As Trump Jr. signed off from the video conference on the show, Kilmeade observed, “Clearly, he’d have a great political future should he ever run.” He seemed impressed with what Trump Jr. said about Democrats.

However, following Kilmeade’s remark, co-host Ainsley Earhardt pointed out that Trump Jr. may not want to be involved in politics. “Is it worth it?” she asked.
Right before Kilmeade made his statement, Trump Jr. talked on the show lending his support to his father’s State of the Union speech before launching an attack on congressional Democrats.

“They need Americans to have to look to government for everything. That is what they’re pushing. That is what they want,” Trump Jr. told “Fox & Friends.”
He also claimed that Democrats don’t think of capitalism as “the greatest system ever established.” Trump Jr. further stated that capitalism has worked for America and has “put people on the moon.”
"The reality is there is nothing there. We are an incredible business. We focus on our existing assets. They are trying to make it very difficult for us to grow.”

He argued that the Republican Party wants to embrace capitalism but the Democratic party wants to move away toward socialism.
Trump Jr. also took time to criticize special counsel Robert Mueller and his investigation, which he termed as the “greatest witch hunt in American history.”
He stressed that there is nothing for Mueller to find out with his investigation that hasn’t been already put out in the open. Trump Jr. is disappointed that it has still not stopped Mueller and his team from their attack on Trump business.
“They have been doing it to me for two years on other issues. The reality is there is nothing there. We are an incredible business. We focus on our existing assets. They are trying to make it very difficult for us to grow.”
