“He knows his generation”
“I’m very proud of him for his knowledge, even about politics and giving advice to his father,” Melania said during an appearance on the Fox News show Fox & Friends last month. “He brought in so many young people. He knows his generation because, nowadays, the young generation, they don’t sit in front of the TV anymore. They’re all on tablets, phones, podcasts, and streamers.
“He was very vocal, and he gave advice to his father. It was incredible how he contributed to the campaign’s success because he knew exactly who his father needed to connect with.”
Where does Barron Trump study?
Born in New York City on 20 March 2006, Barron is Melania’s only son and Donald Trump’s fifth child. In September 2024, he began his first year at the Stern School of Business at New York University.
Unlike many students, Barron is not living in the NYU dorms. Instead, he resides at Trump Tower in Midtown Manhattan.
Will Barron live in the White House?
Speaking on Fox & Friends last week, Melania confirmed that Barron will continue living in New York but will have a room at the White House. This arrangement will allow him to visit with friends whenever he wishes.
“Yes [he can bring his friends with him]whatever he would like to do,” Melania said. “I feel that we have our children until they’re about 18 or 19 years old. We teach them, guide them, and then give them the wings to fly. I always respect Barron’s ‘yes’ and ‘no’—what he likes to do and where he wants to be.”
