While Donald Trump’s son, Barron Trump, rarely makes public appearances and speeches, he has already become a favorite of the College Republicans Of America, who are keen on making Barron join them.
It is now widely known that Barron grew up with strict rules that were instructed by his father, Donald Trump. In a now-viral video, Trump is shown giving 5-year-old Barron instructions on how to lead his school life. Given the fact that his upbringing has been strict and conservatives have praised the way his father addressed him in the video, it is no wonder that this young boy of 18 is emerging as a top choice for a young Conservative politician.
As mentioned by Will Donahue, the president of the College Republicans Of America, they hail Barron Trump as the “future of the conservative movement.” These comments came after Kaya Walker, the president of CRA’s NYU chapter, referred to Barron as an “oddity” on the campus.
While speaking to Vanity Fair, Walker said, “He’s sort of like an oddity on campus. He goes to class, he goes home.” These words did not really go down well with the authorities of College Republicans Of America, who said that her comment “does not align with the values and principles upheld by our organization.” Following this, she had to resign from her position.
It is in response to these comments that the letter was signed by Will Donahue, who mentioned, “Barron Trump represents the future of the conservative movement, and we would be honored to have him join the College Republicans of America.”

This shows how, without really making much noise in the public, Barron Trump is already securing his place in politics. His mother, Melania Trump, had previously mentioned to Fox & Friends that Barron had helped his father during his presidential election in regards to pulling younger voters.
She said, “He brought in so many young people. “He knows his generation, because nowadays the young generation, they don’t sit in front of TV anymore.” Her words show how encouraging she is of her son and her confidence in his abilities. Donald Trump, on the other hand, has not made many comments on Barron. However, when he attended the Presidential Inauguration, Trump acknowledged his youngest son’s efforts during his campaign and introduced him, saying, “I have a very tall son.”

While there’s a clear difference in attitude between Melania and Donald Trump when referring to Barron Trump, they both seem to agree on his efforts in helping Trump’s presidential campaign. Moreover, given the fact that Melania had already mentioned how she and Donald had designated parental duties, it is not surprising that their way of acknowledging and praising their children are also different.
It now remains to be seen whether Barron Trump responds to the invitation made by the College Republicans of America, and if he does, what stance does he take? Till now, there has been no word from his side regarding this matter.
