Donald Trump Jr. told teenage boys to keep away from his daughter Kai, 17, after she was ‘swarmed’ by fans following her speech at the Republican National Convention.
The eldest granddaughter of the former president stole the show at Wednesday night’s programming when she took stage for brief remarks about the ‘real’ side of her grandfather Donald Trump.
Fox News host Laura Ingraham said Kai is now ‘unleashed’ on the world and has been surrounded by boys and fans ever since her remarks – a fact her father didn’t seem too happy to hear.
‘I’m being told, by the way, that your daughter has been just swarmed in this arena by teenage boys,’ Ingraham said on Thursday.
Don Jr. cut in with: ‘Get away you little b*****ds and stay away.’
Donald Trump Jr. wants to ward off teenage boys ‘swarming’ daughter Kai, 17, after her first remarks on a national stage Wednesday
Kai Trump took her first step into the world of politics with her brief remarks to thousands of GOP delegates and party members and MAGA fanatics.
It was the first time a Trump grandchild came on stage to make remarks for the former president.
‘He always encourages me to be the most successful person I can be,’ Kai said of her grandfather. ‘Obviously he sets the bar pretty high. But who knows, maybe one day I’ll catch him.’
The remark led to speculation she could take the Trump political dynasty into a third generation.
She told Fox News on Thursday she was ‘nervous’ for the remarks, but Trump was ‘proud.’
Speaking at Fiserv Forum on Wednesday, the avid golfer described how she and her grandfather discuss their game. When they play he tries to ‘get inside my head’ but forgets that ‘I’m a Trump too,’ Kai said to laughter.
She went on: ‘The media makes my grandpa seem like a different person, but I know him for who he is. He’s very caring and loving.’
‘He truly wants the best for this country and he will fight every single day to make America great again.’
The day after her speech, Kai’s father talked about warding off male attention now that she’s in the spotlight.
‘You have unleashed the male – she had the big fan club,’ Ingraham said to Don Jr. ‘She’s trending on the internet more than you. She’s eclipsing her father at this point?’
‘They had to shut down a part of the arena because so many people were following her. So you’ve introduced her to the world now.’
The oldest Trump child replied: ‘Perhaps I’ll regret picking up that phone and saying, ‘sure you can speak there.’ But I had to do that for her because she needed to do that for her grandpa.’

Kai took the stage after being introduced by her father.
‘Before I begin my remarks, I’m going to do something a little uncharacteristic – a Trump is going to give up the microphone. Doesn’t happen often, you may never see it again,’ he said.
‘But I got a call Monday morning from a young lady who said ‘Dad, I want to speak at the RNC because I want America to know what my grandpa is actually like’. So for the first time ever on the stage, first time ever giving a speech, I want to bring out my eldest daughter and the eldest granddaughter of your favorite president, Kai Madison Trump.’
