WASHINGTON, DC: President Donald Trump's granddaughter, Kai Trump, knows how to speak her mind when faced with tricky political questions. The 18-year-old shared her thoughts during a recent appearance on Logan Paul’s podcast.

Kai Trump says she stays out of politics but hopes Trump and Kamala Harris find common ground

During an appearance on Logan Paul’s channel 'Impaulsive', a short clip highlighted Kai Trump’s perspective on navigating the political landscape. The video, shared on Wednesday, January 7, on X (formerly Twitter), showed her discussing her approach to politics for about a minute.

When asked about the presidential election and former Vice President Kamala Harris, Kai was posed the question, "Was Kamala the Ops when your granddad was running?" "To be honest with you? I say I am unbothered completely," she replied. The host responded, "Love that completely."

Kai went on, "So I'm like, I would never run like, I don't want anything to do with politics because I feel like politics is such a dangerous thing." She added, "I think if both sides met in the middle, everyone would be so much more happier."

Kai also commented on the extremes in modern politics, "I think there's a lot of there's radical left. There's radical, right. There's a lot of people that get too extreme. And that's where social media really ties into it, because social media kind of makes your Instagram or your feed or whatever kind of either be really one way or the other."

She continued, "And there's not a lot of things on social media where you're very much in the middle, and I think that's kind of makes some people crazy, and some people buy into it too much. I think that's like the best way to say it. There's no bad blood, and I'm very much in the middle and kind of like it is what it is they ran against each other."
