Donald Trump’s granddaughter Kai does hilarious impression of president-elect as she ‘intimidates’ YouTube golf star
Kai Trump has inherited her passion for golf from her grandfather Donald Trump, but that’s not the only thing she’s picked up from the president-elect.
Kai, the daughter of Donald Trump Jr. and his ex-wife Vanessa, joined the world of sporting influencers when she launched her own YouTube channel earlier this year, sharing an election night insight video and a day-in-the-life vlog among mainly golf content.
The 17-year-old teamed up with fellow golf content creator Grant Horvat in her latest video, leaving him impressed with her skills.
However, the teenager’s impressive golf swing wasn’t the only thing that caught the attention of her subscribers as she showed shades of her presidential granddad.
Standing on the 6th tee, Kai was explaining her upcoming tee shot when she whipped out a hilarious impression of the 47th-president-to-be.
‘Huge,’ she said in an uncanny impression of president-elect Trump’s accent, drawing out the word before replicating his infamous signature hand gestures.

Kai, who has committed to play collegiately at the University of Miami, went on to fire off a monster drive – one of many for the rising star during the nine-hole round.
She impressed Horvat, who early on the round quipped that the teenager ‘intimidates’ him with her skills around the fairways.
She beat the YouTuber by one shot, finishing at one-under through nine holes thanks to a clutch putt for birdie at the last.
Kai has long been tipped to best her grandad and become the most accomplished golfer of the Trump dynasty – something she now appears set to fulfil .
She has won the ladies club championship at her grandfather’s golf course in Palm Beach, Florida, and has played with some of the biggest stars in the game.
She credited the former president for helping her achieve her collegiate goal when announcing her commitment to the University of Miami.
‘I would like to thank my Grandpa for giving me access to great courses and tremendous support,’ she said.
‘I would also like to thank my entire family for always encouraging and pushing me to be the best person I can possibly be. I would like to thank my friends for always cheering me on,’ she continued.

Her foray into the space of golf content doesn’t come as a huge surprise as she has previously made guest appearances on other channels.
Kai previously appeared on Horvat’s own channel before she ventured into the world of YouTube with her own platform.
During her guest appearance with the Good Good co-founder, she was asked who often wins the matches between the two and she admitted that, although they are normally close, the former president usually gets over the line.
She said: ‘I watched half of it (the DeChambeau video) because I was working out. It was awesome. It was crazy.
‘Genuinely, he always gives me a run for my money. It’s pretty close.
‘It’s never really like game over and I’ve won on the 15th hole. He wins a lot of the time. I do have to say that. I’ve got to get better.’
She has also shared the course with her grandpa as a teammate rather than an opponent.
They formed part of a Pro-Am team ahead of the controversial LIV Golf tournament at Trump’s Doral course in Florida.

Kai played alongside uncle Eric Trump, Sergio Garcia, Brooks Koepka and supporting cast of secret service agents.
And the young talent won’t be too far from her family – and her grandfather’s golf courses – when she ultimately flies the nest with the University of Miami’s golf team hitting the fairways at The Biltmore, a golf club roughly nine miles from Trump’s Doral course in Miami.
Kai’s nearly 260-year drive and dedication to the sport helped earn her the Varsity Captain position at the Benjamin School, which Tiger Woods son, Charlie, also attends.
Kai claims on her Instagram page to be part of Callaway Next, ‘the next generation of Callaway Tour Pros.’
Her longest drive is said to be 275 yards. Only 14 players on the LPGA averaged longer in 2023.
She has played with big-hitting DeChambeau, Swedish professional Daniela Holmqvist, two-time world long drive champion Kyle Berkshire and other promising youngsters.
Kai has met Woods and his fellow major winners Dustin Johnson and Patrick Reed.
