It's March 7th. Here's your entertainment news in two minutes. Donald Trump's 18-year-old granddaughter Kai is catching heat for a recent TikTok video filmed at the White House. She showed off helicopters there just days after news broke of six U.S. soldiers killed in an attack involving Iran. Critics slammed the post as insensitive and tone-deaf given the timing. The clip drew quit backlash online, with many calling Kai arrogant and out of touch for sharing it during such a somber moment. Some even question why she gets special access to film there when military families might not. Not everyone powered on though. Supporters jumped in to defend her, pointing out the helicopters are standard for transporting people, not actual war machines. They describe her as a proud American just enjoying her unique spot. Kai has made it clear she wants no part in politics. In a recent podcast chat, she called it too dangerous and pushed for folks from both sides to meet in the middle for real happiness. She sounds more like her mom than her grandpa, and even gently called out her dad Donald

Trump Jr. for going overboard on social media. Kai prefers staying neutral amid all the online extremes. D&N is sponsored by our partner. No earbuds, no headbands, no awkward sleeping positions, just a pillow that plays your sound. S-O-L-I, solelypillow.com.
