“He calls me in the middle of the school day to ask how my golf game is going and tells me all about his, but then I have to remind him that I’m at school and have to call him back later,” Trump’s granddaughter told a raucous crowd in Milwaukee.
“I was shocked to hear on Saturday that he had been shot and just wanted to know if he was OK,” she said, describing the events following the assassination attempt on the former president.
“A lot of people gave my grandpa hell and he’s still standing,” the teenager added.
“Grandpa, you are such an inspiration and I love you,” Kai said. “The media makes my grandpa seem like a different person. But I know him for who he is. He is very caring and loving. He truly wants the best for this country. And he will fight every day to make America great again. Thank you.”
