The Truth About Donald And Melania Trump's Only Son

love him or hate him president donald trump and his family have capitalized on the reality star turned politicians fame but while most of the trumps are making headlines one family member has managed to skirt the spotlight fourteen-year-old baron trump is the only son of president trump and the first lady and here's what america's first kid is all about barron trump is one of five children from donald's three marriages baron's older brothers donald jr and eric are the children of donald and his first wife ivana also from the first marriage is ivanka who works as an official assistant to the president while her husband jared kushner is a senior advisor barron's two older brothers often appear in the spotlight due to their leading roles in the trump organization and all three of the older kids made appearances during their father's campaign speaking at both the 2016 and the 2020 republican national conventions the siblings were also joined by their younger sister tiffany from donald's second marriage to marla maples who spoke in support of her father as well our generation is unified in the facing the future in uncertain times while baron may have been absent from the official podium we're certain he would have been speaking too if he were just a little older and it's not like he isn't familiar with being on tv baron made his tv debut at just two months old on the oprah winfrey show at that time oprah's longtime friend gail king interviewed donald and melania and effectively introduced little baron to the world when asked what it was like to have a baby again after so many years the then 59 year old donald said i think it's terrific and melania is a fantastic mother melania also told king that donald was a great father and that he spent time with baron every morning watching tv and reading newspapers the three then got to talking about the choice in name donald said it's a name i always loved but really never had the courage to use so daniel you're not opposed to changing diapers you just haven't had to do it but but you know how to do it i would be able to do it yeah after their chat king toured the stunning trump nursery which was decked out with a beautiful crib and lots of stuffed animals when baron was born in 2006 he became the recipient of some pretty lavish baby gifts from a-list stars fashion designer dennis basso sent the baby a white mink blanket and famed journalist barbara walters sent him a massive stuffed dog according to people even ellen degeneres sent the new baby a gold stroller with his own chandelier melania was later photographed pushing baron in the stroller around her penthouse other friends reportedly sent a number of onesies to baby baron many that featured donald's catchphrases from his celebrity apprentice days including quote you're fired but even now baron is still raking into spectacular presence it's not uncommon for international leaders and governments to bestow gifts upon the president and his family as a gesture of goodwill often seen as tools of international diplomacy the washington post reported that these items symbolize the friendship and journey shared between countries historically some of these gifts were even actual animals too according to reports president ronald reagan received a baby elephant from sri lanka president george h.w bush received a komodo dragon from indonesia and president richard nixon and his wife were gifted two pandas from china considering all of that it may not come as much of a shock to learn that baron received a horse from mongolia in 2019 as noted by the ap the nation has often gifted horses to its dignitaries baron's horse named victory will remain in mongolia the press secretary at the time said that the family was quote very grateful for the gift thank you very much did you see a picture of the horse beautiful thanks to his mother's homeland and native language baron speaks both slovenian and english fluently according to bustle additionally his mother told people magazine in 2009 that baron also speaks french making him a trilingual toddler at the time i have to go to school now yeah you will have lunch and then you go to sleep now i'm gonna go yeah first you will have lunch and then you go to school according to mary jordan author of the art of her deal baron continues to speak to his mother in slovenian to this day and apparently the two even share the language in the presence of the secret service jordan told cbs news there's a unit within the family unit and it's melania her mother her father and marin and they all speak slovenian their integrity compassion and intelligence reflects to this day on me and for my love of family and america fun fact reportedly no one in the secret service speaks slovenian but they may have picked up on a few phrases by this point jordan also revealed how baron and melania's conversations impact the president who unlike his son did not learn his wife's native language jordan said he has said it annoys him sometimes because he has no idea what they're saying maybe someday baron will catch up with his mom who reportedly speaks six languages herself like so many other american teenagers baron appears to be a total sneakerhead in fact he has made his signature kicks his most notable fashion statement since moving into the white house as for what his favorite brand appears to be footwear news reports he's a fan of the new balance 574 core baron has happily sported those sneakers on more than one occasion he was photographed in early 2020 wearing the sneakers in black and a couple of weeks earlier he was spotted wearing a different pair of the shoes with what appeared to be reflective detailing then during thanksgiving in 2019 baron again rocked an all-black edition of the shoe finally in march of 2019 he was seen wearing a camel colored version of the same style it's safe to say baron has found his footwear of choice first children are practically staples of the white house trump's predecessor president barack obama brought along his two young daughters sasha and malia when he took office and both kids and teens have lived at 1600 pennsylvania avenue during past administrations but when donald won the 2016 election melania made it clear that she and baron would not immediately be moving from their manhattan penthouse apparently she didn't want to interrupt baron in the middle of his school year according to the new york times while melania also worried about exposing baron to the scrutiny of the press the bear finally moved to washington dc in june of 2017. even so melania remained cautious of the decision according to people magazine she was reluctant to relocate not just because of baron's schooling but also due to her love of new york city and we love to live in washington we have a very busy life and it's exciting as well despite their differences in political views several former first children have jumped to barron's defense when he was targeted by haters criticism of baron's appearance and demeanor began as early as his father's inauguration according to people for one chelsea clinton quickly defended barron after the inauguration in 2017 tweeting barron trump deserves the chance every child does to be a kid it's high time the media and everyone leave barron trump alone and let him have the private childhood he deserves clinton wasn't the only first kid to defend barron either jenna bush hager told the outlet that the unwarranted criticism made her angry explaining the truth is obviously barron trump didn't ask his dad to run for president it wasn't his decision but barron's mother likely offers the most constant protection from negative press most notably when the late actor peter fonda tweeted that baron should be removed from his family in an attempt to bring attention to the immigration crisis in the united states melania reported fonda to the secret service according to people the tweet garnered significant outrage and was then deleted later stanford law professor pamela carlin made a derogatory comment about baron during his father's impeachment trial so while the president can name his son baron he can't make him a baron melania fired back tweeting the minor child deserves privacy and should be kept out of politics pamela carlin you should be ashamed of your very angry and obviously biased public pandering and using a child to do it carlin later apologized for her damaging remarks and it was wrong of me to do that i wish the president would apologize obviously for the things that he's done that's wrong but i do regret having said that baron has become the spitting image of his father as he's grown up but according to melania he resembles his father in other ways too so much so that she has a special nickname for him she revealed to parenting he is independent and opinionated and knows exactly what he wants he's a mixture of us and looks but his personality is why i call him little donald melania also noted that little donald admires his father's career in success she said he likes the way he talks the way he is they have beautiful respect and admiration for each other many children have lived in the white house over the years but for quite some time only daughters have resided at 1600 pennsylvania avenue obama had two girls as did george w bush and before that president bill clinton had a daughter as well in fact barron was the first boy to move into the white house in over 50 years according to cnn the last presidential son to reside there was john f kennedy jr whose father was assassinated in 1963 when he was just two years old when donald won the election in 2016 presidential expert and author kate anderson brower suggested to cnn that melania might benefit from speaking to former first ladies about their experiences raising kids in the white house that's what first lady hillary clinton did when she asked jackie kennedy for advice on being america's first mom donald trump isn't the first president to play golf in his downtime but he is certainly dedicated to the sport because i'm gonna be working for you i'm not gonna have time to go play golf but trump doesn't just play golf either he's the proud owner of 11 trump branded golf properties in the united states alone according to golf week of course it's not too surprising then that the president and his youngest son spend time on the links together regularly according to politico donald golfs frequently and is often joined by his family including baron and his siblings sources close to the president also claim that he uses his golf weekends to bond with baron a close friend told the outlet i've seen baron out there with him on a few occasions he's a good athlete in his own right and from the looks of it baron was hitting the golf course with his dad even before his family moved into the white house in 2014 melania posted a snap of the pair on her facebook page while they teed off at the trump golf property in scotland as he's grown into a teen baron's clear passion for soccer has been well documented in 2017 he was fortunate enough to meet players from the dc united team while they were visiting the white house and he chatted with forward patrick mullins and midfielders julian boucher and marcelo sarvis about the game the team then gave baron an official game ball which had been signed by the team shortly after their exchange mullins told the washington post baron was very knowledgeable about soccer knew about dc united and was interested to know more for a little kid to have a passion for the game and be knowledgeable and have a conversation with us makes me feel good about kids growing up playing the game in 2017 baron was also recruited for the u.s soccer development academy and even scored a position on dc united's under 12 team as noted by soccer america and in other news a year later even russian president vladimir putin appeared to know barron's into the game that will go to my son barron we have no question in fact melania here you go given that baron doesn't appear in public too often any changes in his looks are easily noticeable so when baron emerged from marine one with his parents in august of 2020 and howard over his six foot three father the internet went nuts with speculation immediately one twitter user asked does anyone know if he can play ball another said that the 14 year old baron should have been arriving at the nba draft instead of the white house baron's stature shouldn't be too much of a surprise though given both of his parents heights his dad is well over six feet tall and according to cbs news melania trump is 5 11. in case you forgot she was a model after all clearly baron has had a growth spurt on the world stage and who knows maybe he'll trade his soccer ball for a basketball someday wherever life takes him we're pretty sure that as much as he may prefer a little more privacy than the rest of his family we'll be keeping up with baron as his bright future unfolds check out one of our newest videos right here plus even more list videos about
