Pam Stepnick, the mother of internet celebrities Logan and Jake Paul, asserts that former U.S. President Donald Trump “sees a lot of himself” in her sons. This perspective is detailed in her forthcoming memoir, F— The Pauls, which is scheduled for release on January 27, 2025. The memoir chronicles the Paul brothers’ journey from Ohio to international fame through platforms such as YouTube, boxing, and WWE.
Stepnick highlights Trump’s ongoing interest in her sons’ careers, illustrating a growing intersection between politics, entertainment, and digital culture. In one notable section, she recounts Logan’s visit to Mar-a-Lago for a podcast interview with Trump during his 2024 presidential campaign. She describes the invitation as a significant milestone, symbolizing the family’s rise from suburban Ohio to the national spotlight.
“When President Donald Trump was running for office in 2024, he invited Mike Majlak and Logan to Mar-a-Lago to interview him for their ‘ImPaulsive’ podcast,” Stepnick writes. “It was another one of those surreal moments for me. My kid is chatting casually with Donald Trump. Only in America could any of this happen.”
In her memoir, Stepnick reflects on her belief that Trump recognizes qualities in her sons that mirror his own, including ambition and an aptitude for self-promotion. “I could be wrong, but I think Donald Trump sees a lot of himself in my kids,” she states. “He always supports the fights and their work. He is also an entertainer and a businessman. Hate him or love him, he’s incredibly polarising.”
Stepnick emphasizes that the story of her family mirrors the quintessential American narrative, where individuals can rise from obscurity to prominence through creativity and determination.
Paul Family Invited to Trump’s 2025 Inauguration
In addition to her reflections on Trump’s admiration for her sons, Stepnick reveals that the Paul family has been invited to attend Trump’s second inauguration in January 2025. She describes this invitation as yet another defining moment in their transition from internet fame to significant political recognition.
Sitting in Washington D.C. alongside her sons, she was surrounded by global leaders, influencers, and creators. “When President Trump was re-elected, his office invited our family to the inauguration,” Stepnick recalls. “That cold day in January 2025, I sat with my sons and watched history unfold in front of me.”
The memoir also explores the delicate balance between family dynamics and the challenges of raising two of the internet’s most recognizable figures. As Stepnick navigates this landscape, she highlights how modern influence can reach the highest echelons of American culture.
With F— The Pauls, Stepnick aims not only to share her family’s journey but also to comment on the broader implications of fame in the digital age. As she reflects on their experiences, she acknowledges the unpredictable nature of their path and the remarkable opportunities it has afforded them.
As the memoir’s release date approaches, anticipation builds around the insights it promises to offer into the lives of the Paul brothers and their unique relationship with one of America’s most controversial figures.
