Donald Trump Jr. appears to be making a habit of mixing political fundraising with his love of hunting.
Last month, the president's oldest son went pheasant hunting with Rep. Steve King while in Iowa attending a fundraiser for the Republican lawmaker.Fast forward a month, and the Trump offspring once again campaigned with
a Republican lawmaker, and went hunting: This time, he headed to Kansas
to attend a Tuesday fundraiser for Kansas Secretary of State Kris
Kobach's campaign for governor, and then on Wednesday, the pair went
pheasant hunting.
"Great time with Kris Kobach today in Kansas," Trump Jr., donning hunting gear and carrying a rifle, wrote on Instagram
Wednesday. "After speaking to a sold out crowd of his supporters for
his run for KS Governor last night we were able to squeeze in a bit of
time afield before my flight back to NYC this am. We met through outdoor
friends before politics and it’s great to be able to help a where I
can. #kansas #ks #outdoors #upland."
Kobach
tweeted a photo from their outing, writing, "Showed @DonaldJTrumpJr
some Kansas pheasant hunting before he returned to New York City. Great
morning in the field! #2A #NRA #hunting."
The
presence of Trump Jr. at the fundraising dinner, held Tuesday in a
hotel in the Kansas City suburb of Overland Park, hammered home the
point that Kobach has a close relationship -- closer than other
Republicans in the race -- with President Donald Trump.
Kobach
serves as vice chairman of a presidential commission on election fraud.
His early campaign for governor has echoed many of themes the president
espouses.
"I
think he's actually given conservatives the ability to actually to feel
free to speak up again," Trump Jr. said of Kobach at the event, which
raised more than $100,000.
Kobach
told the Associated Press of Trump Jr., "I think the fact that he's
spending his time in Kansas shows that he views this race as an
important enough one to get a true conservative in the office."
