Donald Trump Jr. on Thursday pushed back against reports suggesting he is seriously considering a future presidential run, accusing Reuters of misrepresenting his comments.
He added, “I’ve always said, while I’ll never 100% rule it out down the line, I have zero interest in running for office in ’28 or anytime soon.”
Fake News @Reuters should retract this BS. They put a comma where there should have been a period to change the context of what i said.

And FWIW, I've always said, while I'll never 100% rule it out down the line, I have ZERO interest in running for office in 28 or anytime soon. https://t.co/3ZAGqFx0t4
When he was asked at the Qatar Economic Forum about future political ambitions, he said, “Well, oh boy. It’s an honor to be asked. You never know… maybe one day. That calling is there.”
Trump Jr., currently focused on his business ventures, added he remains a vocal advocate for the MAGA movement. “I think my father has truly changed the Republican Party – it’s the America First party now.”
