Could Donald Trump Jr. one day follow his dad’s lead all the way to the Oval Office’s high back chair?
I know — some of you say No to legacy families.
Fair enough.
But the guy seems to have a lot of what Republican voters like.
Jr. sure appears to be carving out quite a nice space for himself.
Case in point: His new book debuted at Number 1 on The New York Times Best Sellers list Wednesday.
And what a perfect title: Triggered.
As noted by The Daily Caller, the book beat out Fox News host Brian Kilmeade’s Sam Houston and the Alamo Avengers, as well as 35-million-seller Mitch Albom’s Finding Chika.

DTJ dedicated the book to the scoundrels Hillary Clinton derisively labeled in 2016.
In the afternoon, in light of the releases’s success, he tweeted a great big Thank You:
I dedicated #Triggered to the Deplorables and you guys made it #1… let’s do it again at the voting booth in November. You are the best!!! #MAGA pic.twitter.com/10sOkG2Tcf

The book surely got an uptick from his eyeball-grabbing appearance on The View:

And on Tuesday, the Commander-in-Chief’s son — and Executive Vice President of the Trump Organization — tweeted a video of a “USA”-chanting throng jazzed to meet him on his book tour.
This is the awesome crowd at my book signing for Triggered in Scottsdale Arizona yesterday. Thank you all for showing up for hanging out & waiting it was incredible to be with all of you guys. Some waited for over five hours and didn’t leave. You guys are the best. So awesome. pic.twitter.com/Snh1YQR8im

Could that one day transform into a campaign crowd?
Whether it could or not, surely the question leaves many across the aisle…Triggered.
