Donald Trump III channels grandfather with uncanny resemblance and signature pout at Capitol Hill hearing

WASHINGTON, DC: Sixteen-year-old Donald Trump III sparked a flurry this week after appearing at a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing for how closely he resembled his famous grandfather, President Donald Trump.

The teen, son of Donald Trump Jr and Vanessa Trump, was photographed seated in the gallery on Wednesday, July 9, as he watched Kimberly Guilfoyle testify during her nomination hearing to become US ambassador to Greece.

There was an undeniable resemblance between the teenager and his grandfather particularly noticeable when he mirrored Trump’s trademark expression, complete with the familiar pout, tight-lipped look, and intense gaze.

Dressed in a navy suit, white shirt, and patriotic red-and-blue tie, Trump III exuded a polished presence as he listened intently. 

Trump III is currently enrolled at the New York Military Academy, the same institution once attended by his grandfather. 

He is the eldest son of Don Jr and Vanessa Trump, who were married from 2005 until their high-profile divorce in 2018. Donald III shares the Trump name with four siblings - Kai, Tristan, Spencer, and Chloe.

Vanessa has recently confirmed her relationship with golf legend Tiger Woods. After months of speculation, the couple made their relationship public earlier this year.

Asked about the pairing, President Trump said, “Well, I love Tiger and I love Vanessa and they had a great relationship. Tiger actually called me a couple of months ago… he and I have a very special relationship. I played golf with him a couple of times over the last month and he’s a fantastic guy and a fantastic athlete and he told me about it.”

Kimberly Guilfoyle vows to strengthen US-Greece alliance in defence, energy and trade

In a testimony before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Guilfoyle described Greece as a “pillar of stability” in the Eastern Mediterranean and vowed to deepen bilateral cooperation across defence, energy, and economic sectors.

Guilfoyle pointed to Greece’s projected increase in defence spending up to 3% of GDP by 2025 and possibly 5% in future years and noted its procurement of advanced American systems, including F-35 fighter jets and Apache helicopters.

Guilfoyle highlighted the strong defense relationship between the United States and Greece, citing plans for collaborative naval frigate production as evidence of a shared long-term strategic vision.

Should her nomination as ambassador be approved, she highlighted that advancing Greece’s defense modernization and expanding bilateral military cooperation would be at the forefront of her agenda.

Guilfoyle also stressed the importance of energy security, describing Greece as a growing energy hub in the region.
