President Donald Trump's granddaughter, Kai Trump, is drawing comparisons to him following her appearance at the 2026 ESPYs, and the feedback hasn't been entirely positive.
Kai, 19, was photographed on the red carpet looking notably bronzed in a gold sequin dress featuring a modest thigh slit. While the outfit accentuated her figure without appearing overly tight, her styling appeared to echo the signature MAGA aesthetic. Her freshly honey-blonde hair was styled in soft curls, and she sported a heavily bronzed makeup look that matched her deeply tanned skin tone.
On X (formerly Twitter), numerous users weighed in on the college golfer's transformed appearance, with one commenting: "Looking just as orange as her...grandpa."

A second user joked, "The Trump look is all over," while another posted: "She can barely play golf, but let's invite her to the ESPYs. Get her out of here! ! ! Better yet, get her out of my country! ! Don't care how old she is, all Trumps must go! ! Plus that dress looks tacky AF."
Another observed, "She's becoming orange," as someone else concurred, "she's almost the same color as the [red] carpet." One additional commenter stated, "the fake tan looks terrible."

Despite the University of Miami student athlete facing criticism simply for her family connection to the POTUS, she continues to stand by him as a supporter. Kai recently stated in a video posted to her YouTube channel that Trump's troubled celebration marking America's 250th birthday this month, the Great American State Fair, was in fact a huge success.

It should be noted that footage from the Great American State Fair, staged at the National Mall in Washington, D. C., showed a few attendees on the festival grounds.
Additionally, the fair's duration was plagued by numerous problems, including having to shut down due to rainstorms, last-minute lineup cancellations, and various other complications.
Furthermore, on July 4 itself, a thunderstorm caused a 2-hour delay, requiring a mandatory evacuation of the National Mall. This resulted in Trump not appearing on stage until 11.15 p.m. , with the fireworks display not concluding until approximately 1 a.m. on July 5.

"When they were doing the flyovers over the White House earlier, there were so many people," Kai insisted in her video. "I mean, there must have been, like, half a million people. And then it sucks because then it started raining and lightning and everyone had to evacuate because of the lightning, so no one could come back until like 10 o'clock at night. But there were so many people there, I've never seen so many people."
She continued, "Really, really cool to see how many people showed up today for America's birthday."
