We reported that Donald Trump, the President-elect of the United States, was welcomed with loud cheers at Saturday’s Army-Navy match.
Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy, and Vice President-elect JDVance were all with him. It was a good reminder that Trump is not alone. He has a lot of talented people who are coming up to fight for the principles we all fight for, even after Trump leaves his office.
These three people also have good reasons to do their best for America, because they are parents of young children who they want a bright future for.
Vivek took his son Karthik and made him feel very welcome.

He brought him to the Travis Manion Foundation’s tailgate party. They are working to empower veterans and families to help develop character in the next generation.

The Foundation pays tribute to 1st Lieutenant Travis Manion of the WSMC who was shot and killed by a sniper as he tried to help wounded comrades.
Eight Medal of Honor recipients were also present. These heroes are the real deal.
Very special to kick off the Army-Navy game with my son & 8 Medal of Honor recipients who have served our country with courage. 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/pRsaKsI8iY

This is how you raise a child and teach him what’s most important.
Karthik was also able to spend time with Trump and it appears that Trump enjoyed this.

One of the things I love about our 47th President is how good he is with kids…actually. pic.twitter.com/hi9myxfHCx

Karthik distracted his father with JD Vance to get another cookie. Smart kid with his eyes on the prize.
My 4-year-old took advantage of JD’s & my conversation to quietly snag in his 3rd cookie. He was very proud of himself. pic.twitter.com/zl0sX5BBVG

Ramaswamy made a point of supporting Daniel Penny who Vance invited to the match.
Our family contributed to this man’s legal defense fund last year because he was wronged. We don’t regret it. Hope Daniel Penny has a bright future & good life ahead. pic.twitter.com/mv6ijrJJPf

He did what all little kids do — he made a silly face.
My favorite moment was when Pete Hegseth, the nominee for Secretary of Defense, was teaching him how to push up and his dad was encouraging him to fall to the ground.
Our next Secretary of Defense knows how to start recruiting them young. Karthik made a new friend today, @PeteHegseth pic.twitter.com/3Ly54mGAgx
