PALM BEACH, FLORIDA: Kai Trump, granddaughter of President-elect Donald Trump, has recently shared a photograph that has garnered significant attention from both social media enthusiasts and political commentators.

Trump reportedly informed advisors that he would refrain from golfing at his own courses until after the election, following an incident where Secret Service agents intercepted a gunman at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach in September, Daily Beast reports.



 

It remains uncertain whether this is his first time golfing since that event.

The event was captured by his granddaughter, who also took the opportunity to pose for a photograph with Musk and his son, Lil X, on the golf course.

Elon Musk deepens ties with Donald Trump's family

Elon Musk has become one of Trump's most vocal supporters in the 2024 campaign, with Trump suggesting the possibility of a cabinet role for him. Currently, the Tesla CEO appears to be currying favor with the broader Trump family.

Musk spent election night with the first family at Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort, where he was also featured in an additional family photo posted by Kai.



 

Kai, the 17-year-old daughter of Donald Trump Jr, has recently emerged in the political arena. In July, she delivered a speech at the Republican National Convention, endorsing her grandfather, insisting he was both an “inspiration” and a “normal grandpa.”
