Donald Trump showing off baby Barron Trump
An old video of US President-elect Donald Trump showing his youngest son,
Barron Trump
, as a baby has resurfaced on social media, gaining significant attention.
In the video, shared by a user named 'Defiant World' on the social media platform X,
Trump
is seen holding baby
Barron
in his arms and introducing him to the world. The video is captioned, "Trump showing baby Barron in 2007."
While introducing the baby, Trump says, "That's Barron. He's strong, he's smart, he's tough, he's vicious, he's violent. All of the ingredients you need to be an entrepreneur. And most importantly, hopefully, he is smart because smart is really the ingredient. So, Barron, good luck. You have a long way to go."
At the end of the video, Trump, as Barron holds the microphone, says, "Uh, oh, he won't give up the mic." Trump then kisses baby Barron and hands him over to someone else.
Barron Trump, currently 18 years old, is the youngest son of Donald Trump and his third wife,
Melania Trump
. He was born on March 20, 2006. With a height of six feet nine inches, he is the tallest member of the
Trump family
.
Now a first-year student at New York University's Stern School of Business, Barron has generally remained out of the public eye. While his older siblings took on public roles during Trump's presidency, Barron's activities have largely been private. However, he made a rare appearance at a
Trump rally
during the
2024 US presidential campaign
.
According to Lara Trump, the wife of Donald Trump's son
Eric Trump
, Barron played a key role in his father's presidential victory. Lara said that Barron often called Trump to suggest ideas for garnering more votes.
