Kai Trump is trying to enjoy his last few months of high school before leaving to play golf at the University of Miami.
Of course, part of being an 18-year-old senior in high school is going on some dates, which admittedly can be “really awkward” because of the Secret Service.
During an appearance on Logan Paul’s podcast, Trump gave a glimpse into what her dating life looks like under the watchful eyes of her security team.

“To be honest with you, it’s really awkward when you’re sitting on a date with a guy and they’re like two tables behind you. It’s kind of weird,” Trump said.
However, she has done her best to live her life as an everyday young woman.
“My thing is, I try my best not to let it bother me. I think especially over the last year, I’ve learned that I’ve had to learn that they’re following me, but focus and pretend they’re not there. Obviously, they’re there, but if you can try not to really focus on it and more on enjoying the time with your friends and family, whatever it is, it makes it easier.”

Trump said the “first few months” after her grandfather’s second inauguration were “tough.”
“It wasn’t easy to have someone following you all the time, to plan if you’re going out somewhere, you have to [tell them] I’m leaving in five minutes… But once I just thought, ‘Their only job is to protect me. I want to focus on myself and make them do their job.’ It made it so much easier.”
Trump even joked that the Secret Service will be “right behind me” when she attends college parties.
“They can’t stop anything. Their only purpose is to protect me. If other people are around me drinking, underage, whatever, they can’t stop that person. All they can do, if there’s a threat to me, they’ll take me out,” she said.
