Kai Trump is trying to enjoy his final months of high school before heading off to play golf at the University of Miami.
Being an 18-year-old high school student of course means going on dates that, admittedly, can be “really awkward” because of the Secret Service.
During an appearance on Logan Paul’s podcast, Trump gave a glimpse into what his dating life is like under the watchful eyes of his security team.

“To be honest with you, it’s really awkward when you’re sitting down, dating a guy, and they’re like two tables behind you. It’s a little weird,” Trump said.
However, she tried her best to live her life like an ordinary young woman.
“My thing is, I try my best not to let it bother me. I think, mostly, I’ve learned over the last year, I’ve had to learn that they follow me around, but just focus and pretend they’re not there. Obviously they’re there, but if you can try to not really focus on that and more on spending time with your friends and family, whatever it is, it makes it easier.”

Trump said the “first few months” after his grandfather’s second inauguration were “difficult.”
“It wasn’t easy having someone following you all the time, planning if you go out somewhere, you have to [tell them] I’m leaving in five minutes… But one day I said to myself: “Their only job is to protect me.” I’m going to focus on me and let them do their job. It made things so much easier. »
Trump even joked that the Secret Service would be “right behind me” when she attended college parties.
“They can’t stop anything. Their only goal is to protect me. If other people are around me drinking, underage, anything, they can’t stop that person. Anything they can do, if there’s a threat to me, they’ll take me out,” she said.
