The vlog opens with Kai, daughter of Donald Trump Jr., getting her makeup done in preparation for the evening. Sitting in a makeup chair, Kai shares her initial thoughts on the monumental event, expressing a mix of nerves and excitement. “I am here in my house getting ready for the election night at Mar-a-Lago and the convention center,” she explains. “I think today we’re going with straight hair. Jessica’s going to do my amazing makeup… I am still trying to pick a dress out.”
Throughout the video, Kai’s casual approach offers viewers a personal, family-oriented perspective on the highly publicized evening. She discusses her plans for the night, including a family dinner with her grandfather just hours before he would go on to make headlines worldwide. “I’m going to see my grandpa, have family dinner with him, just, like, spend time with them,” she says. “And then I think I’m going to head over to the convention center… just see my friends and like, close family that have supported me and my grandpa over time.”
For Kai, the evening wasn’t just about politics; it was a moment to connect with her grandfather, whom she hadn’t seen in a while due to his busy campaign schedule. “I haven’t seen my grandpa in a while because he’s been campaigning,” she shares. “I’m super excited to see him again. He’s called me almost every other day.”
The video also includes lighthearted moments of the teenager singing along to popular songs with friends in the car, revealing a typical side of teenage life that her viewers could relate to. In between these lighter scenes, Kai candidly shares her growing anxiety as election results begin to trickle in. “I’m a little nervous,” she admits. “Actually, that’s an understatement. I’m very nervous. The past five days I have been so nervous… I feel like I’ve had butterflies in my stomach for so long, and I really hope we find out [the results] soon.”
As the night progresses and electoral votes are announced in her grandfather’s favor, Kai’s demeanor shifts from anxious to hopeful. Her joy is evident as she describes her pride and admiration for her grandfather. “I’m extremely proud of him,” she says with emotion. “I think he deserves it more than anyone in the whole world. And he really has worked his butt off every single day for the past really eight years or more.”
She continues, “He’s such an incredible person and such a unique person. And he just fights every single day for America over and over and over again. And he’ll never give up.”
The vlog ends with a reflection on the significance of the evening. For Kai, Nov. 5 wasn’t just another day—it was, as she calls it, a “special night.” Her words underscore the emotional stakes of the evening for the Trump family, as well as the resilience and dedication they felt had led to this victory.
In recent weeks, Kai has shared other moments of her life with her followers on social media, including a series of photos and videos from a golf outing with her grandfather. This election night vlog serves as a unique addition, providing insight into what it feels like to be part of such a significant political moment from a family member’s perspective.
