Eric Trump, son of US President Donald Trump, has said he would not rule out running for president once his father's term concludes. Speaking in an interview with Israel's Channel 13 on Sunday, he stressed that in politics“nothing should ever be dismissed.”

He noted that his personal trajectory has already taken surprising turns, including becoming a bestselling author. He said that if someone had asked him five years ago whether he would write a popular book, he would have considered the idea unbelievable.

Eric Trump appeared on the network to promote his new book titled“Under Siege,” which reflects on his family's political and public life. During the interview, he suggested that previous achievements have boosted his confidence in pursuing broader ambitions.

He added that he believes he could pursue the presidency if he chooses to, while cautioning that such decisions depend heavily on future developments in the political landscape. His remarks left open the possibility of another Trump family bid for the White House.

Political analysts say his comments will fuel speculation about succession planning within the Trump political brand, particularly as the family continues to wield significant influence over Republican voters in the United States.

Observers note that if Eric Trump enters the race in future cycles, he would likely benefit from strong name recognition and established party support. However, his prospects would hinge on policy credibility, campaign strategy, and voter sentiment beyond loyal Trump constituencies.
