B. Trump is seen as a potential candidate to continue Trump's political activities

Barron Trump, born in Florida on 20 March 2006, is Donald's fifth child and the first and only son of his wife Melania. As an adult, he took part in the presidential elections in November 2024, which D. Trump won.

Despite his young age, the young man stands out for his tall stature (two meters tall) and for the attention he has attracted from supporters of the 'Make America Great Again' (MAGA) movement. All the members of the Trump family are indeed quite tall, including Melania, but his father does not miss the opportunity to mention the young man's stature every time he appears on the podcast, highlighting his other assets.
Many Americans whisper that B. Trump has indeed been a great influence on his father and his popularity. The young man has repeatedly initiated discussions on social media about his father and possible political scenarios. Thanks to his ambitious nature and his strong words, Barron is considered by some Americans as a beacon of light for the greater political ambitions of the Trump family.

Indeed, Barron did not play a significant role in the past. However, as he has matured, his appearances at campaign events have become more frequent, sparking discussions about his future political role. 

Indeed, a part of the American population sees the young man as a potential candidate who could continue Trump's legacy in the coming decades. However, according to the US Constitution, a presidential candidate must be at least 35 years old. Therefore, Barron would only be eligible to run from 2044 onwards. Even though Trump is currently focusing on his education, it is believed that he could become a political figure and a custodian of political ambitions in the future.

T-shirts with the slogan "Barron Trump 2044" are available for sale online

American presidents must be US citizens, born in the US, have lived in the country for 14 years and be at least 35 years old. It seems that MAGA supporters are prepared to wait for the young man to grow up. To confirm their support, some of them have initiated the marketing of T-shirts with the slogan "Barron Trump for President 2044". Clothes bearing the slogan are now available on eBay[1].
D. Trump is also keen to stress that Barron is much loved. The current US President warns his other children to beware of the competition, as the youngster is, in his eyes, "worthy of a spanking". The father also points out that Trump contributed to the outcome of the US presidential election by giving Trump advice on how to win over the younger generation - what "arrows" to use, what words to use, etc.

It is known that 56% of male voters aged between 18 and 28 supported Trump, compared to 41% in 2020. During the last campaign, Jared Kushner, then in his 30s, was responsible for the online circulation. This year, it was the responsibility of Republican consultant Alex Bruesewitz, 27, who drew up a list of possible podcast appearances. However, D. Trump trusted his son more, so he referred Bruesewitz to the younger man for a "consultation". The son revised the list of podcasts on which D. Trump would appear by marking it with a "green pencil".

"Barron is very good at this stuff", said D. Trump, proud of his son.

Barron gave his father one more piece of advice before the election: his son was quick to direct his presidential candidate father to talk to hosts such as Logan Paul, Adin Ross, Theo Won and, of course, Joe Rogan. It was Trump's interview with comedian Theo Von that was viewed 15 million times. Meanwhile, Rogan's appearance on YouTube alone has received 50 million views, far more than the presidential debates and keynote speeches.

Unlike Trump, Kamala Harris declined an invitation to appear on J. Rogan's show. D. Trump said he knew that modern media was a great way to reach younger voters[2].

Although Barron was not in the limelight during his father's 2024 presidential campaign, after Donald's victory, the youngster appeared on stage for his father's victory speech, during which he expressed his gratitude to his children. Trump's other children are reportedly less prominent in the background of his political outlook. As a result, the burden of certain expectations will fall on Trump's shoulders.

Barron's keeps an eye on innovation and is interested in cryptocurrencies

B. Trump is also actively involved in cryptocurrencies. In 2024, he co-founded World Liberty Financial with his father and brothers. This initiative aims to create a decentralized lending and borrowing platform, revolutionizing the financial sector and moving away from traditional banking systems. The project team believes that Barron can contribute to the project's success. Moreover, according to Trump, Barron knows a lot about cryptocurrencies. 

Barron seems to be slowly diving into the family business. However, it is not yet obvious that the young man has political ambitions. Those who know Barron say that he is quiet, gentle, and considerate—the opposite of his combative father and his associates[3]

Barron has replaced three secondary schools

Since Trump's mother, Melania, came to the US from Slovenia, which was part of Yugoslavia at the time, the youngster speaks fluent English and Slovenian. However, Trump hastens to add that his son also speaks Chinese.

Barron was estimated to attend three secondary schools while his father traveled to the USA for work. Initially, his son attended a school in New York, then in May 2017 it was announced that Barron would attend St. John's School in New York. In July 2017, it was announced that Barron would attend St Andrew's School in Potomac, Maryland. After Trump's presidency ended in 2021, it was revealed that Barron would attend Oxbridge Academy in Palm Beach, Florida. B. Trump is a freshman at the Stern School of Business in New York.
