Trump to visit brother hospitalized in New York

President Trump will be visiting his younger brother, Robert Trump, in a New York hospital on Friday, a senior administration official confirmed to reporters. The reason for the hospitalization is unclear, but he is said to be very ill.

“He has a very good relationship with his brother and his brother is very special to him,” a senior administration official said of the president’s relationship with his brother.

Robert Trump is about two years younger than the president.

Over the summer, Robert Trump requested a temporary restraining order in an attempt to stop a book by Trump niece Mary Trump from being published. Her memoir, which is about President Trump, was published in July.

This is a developing story and will be updated.
