Donald Trump Jr. is reportedly "miserable" and can't wait for the next four years to end.

A friend of President Trump's two adult sons told People that Trump Jr. and Eric Trump "never wanted this."

“Don can’t do any deals, because he’ll be overly scrutinized. He just goes to work every day and is miserable," a source in their circle added.

Trump Jr. is facing backlash after news surfaced earlier this month that he took a meeting last year with a Russian lawyer.

Last week, Trump Jr. released a chain of emails detailing his conversations about setting up a meeting with a Russian lawyer, who he was told had compromising information on then-Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.

Trump Jr. has since appeared on Fox News, where he said he likely would have "done things a little differently" in retrospect.

President Trump has defended his eldest son, saying most politicians would have taken similar meetings.

A family friend especially close to Trump Jr. and Eric Trump told People the loyalty within their family is "insane."

“They would never speak against their dad," the family friend said.

The source in the brothers' circle added: “You can’t bite the hand that feeds you, but [Trump Jr.] can’t wait for these four years to be over.”

You and me both

Hope he doesn't think things are gonna go back to the way they were once it is over

Melania
Barron
Tiffany
now Junior

Wonder how long and what it'll take for Jared, Ivanka, and Eric to hop off the Trump bandwagon.

Melania would've been gone already if she didn't depend on his money

I wonder if he used to think;
"I can't wait for this stupid Presidential campaign to be over. No way Dad will win. I'll just play along and support him and I'll be there for him when he fails"

*fast forward to election night*

Trump TV was the original plan, and you can tell that's what Jr and co were all set to do.

They could make money off stupid hicks for 4-8 years while Clinton ran things and did all the work. All they'd have to do is sit on their asses and sling shit from the side.

Gavi hates PC culture and the way some "lefties" conduct themselves, but he's never struck me as a Trump supporter.

It won't get any easier from here, kid.

Never underestimate the idiocy of politicians. Or especially voters.

I can't imagine any of the Trump family wanted this. Malania was the wife of a billionaire and had minimal responsibilities. Now she is the highly-scrutinized first lady. Thanks wanted to run her businesses and clothes lines. Now she has this image of being the "voice of reason" in the Trump circle being thrust onto her.

They were billionaires living the billionaire life. The presidency is a downgrade.

To be fair there are quite a few things that are huge issues in America that Australia does right. And if we do away with net neutrality we won't even have that on Australia.

But Trump's kids share his deplorable last name. Therefore we must ignore any of their individual opinions and dump criticism all over them too because they absolutely must be perfect clones of their father. He's in their genes somewhere waiting to strike!

You know, because everyone thinks and acts like a complete carbon copy of their parents heuhuehue.

The only problem is that none of his family has really ever done anything against Trump. They might express displeasure in Trump being president, but at the end of the day they will bow down and follow their father to his grave rather than live as their own person.

So they're like a bunch of other people stuck in a scenario with a crazy relative in a position of authority with a negative image in the public eye. He's done provocative things, but that doesn't mean it's enough for his family to completely cut ties with him. That would be so unrealistic. It's not their obligation to become "sleeper agents" who turn on their own father. That's feelgood movie shit. Just because they don't outright rebel against him doesn't mean they agree with everything he does.

Most people in that scenario just ride out the storm the best they can and acknowledge that "yup, our parent's nuts ". They might occasionally try to simmer down their relative's lunacy, but you're not going to hear about that in the news. It happens behind private doors...like stuff does in most families.

I never said they had to cut ties with him. But they don't have to support everything he does either.

Trump Jr does seem a lot like his father tbh. I'm only judging that on a completely superficial level but he looks like he would fit right into American Psycho.
