Donald Trump Jr.

Donald Trump Jr. is hard to assess on his own terms, because the family name precedes everything he does — and that is exactly what interests me. Born into maximum scrutiny, he chose to lean into the spotlight rather than retreat from it, running the family business with his brother while building a loud parallel career as an author and broadcaster. I doubt history will ever separate him from his father's legacy, and perhaps he does not want it to. My honest take: he is less an entrepreneur than a case study in inherited celebrity — how a second generation negotiates a brand it did not create and cannot escape.
