The Trump sons' international business pursuits raise eyebrows as they leverage their father's name for lucrative deals across three continents.
In a whirlwind of business activities that stretches across Europe, the United States, and the Middle East, Donald Trump’s older sons, Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., have engaged in a series of moneymaking ventures that capitalize on their father’s fame and influence.
