Donald Trump Jr. Joins Venture Firm 1789 Capital

Donald Trump Jr. has joined 1789 Capital, a venture capital firm focused on investing in conservative businesses, marking a significant step in his post-presidential family career. Trump Jr. announced this move at a Rockbridge Network conference in Las Vegas, where he emphasized his intention to support the MAGA movement from the outside rather than taking an official role in his father's administration. 1789 Capital, valued at approximately $150 million, aims to invest in what it calls a 'parallel economy' that aligns with conservative values, amidst concerns over perceived liberal biases in mainstream media and tech. This venture underscores the ongoing synergy between the Trump family and conservative economic initiatives, with Trump Jr. expected to play a vital role in raising capital for the firm. Notably, he has no plans to join the Trump administration and will continue to engage in political activities through his podcast and supporting Republican candidates.
