Don Trump Jr. doesn't want 'morons' around him if he runs for office in 2028

Donald Trump Jr. is leaving open the door to running for office in 2028.

During a "Trump Country" campaign event in Ankney ahead of Iowa's caucuses on Monday, the former president's son was asked about his plans for running in 2028.

"Listen, you never know. I don't want to say no because then if you decide to do it like, oh my god, he's a major liar," Trump replied. "You know, people, the reality is this, like, I never needed this. Right? But I believe in it."

He told a story about spending summers in Czechoslovakia after his mother "escaped" communism.

"You know, I got it, so I'm an unlikely person to understand these things, but just sort of by dumb luck, it fell into there. So, you know, I've become pretty passionate about it," he continued.

Trump said that he used to go to "cool person parties" before his father ran for president.

"You know, once you take this stance, they'll go after you that way," he explained. "So, I guess the answer is I will continue to fight no matter what. The question is, do you want the day job of actually doing it when I look at some of these morons in Congress?"

Trump speculated that he could do more for the conservative cause as a private citizen.

"I almost feel like I can do more outside of that. I don't have to play by the rules," he said, adding, "Again, I'm not Hunter Biden. I actually have to play by the rules."
