Donald Trump began his victory speech with his son Barron by his side. Standing at an impressive 6 feet 7 inches, Barron closely resembles his father and has been recognised as a key factor in helping Trump attract votes from young male supporters.
Several social media users praised Barron as the mastermind behind the Trump campaign’s podcast strategy during the election.
Recently speaking on the PBD podcast Lara Trump wife of Donald Trump’s third son Eric, praised Barron Trump as “really smart” and “entertaining,” highlighting his contribution to the campaign by consistently suggesting new ideas to help secure more votes for President-elect Donald Trump.
Lara said: “Barron Trump is so cool. He’s like the sleeper. He’s kind of stayed out of the spotlight intentionally. Barron makes us all look so little. He’s really smart, very entertaining, he’s his father’s son. There’s been many times where Barron will call Trump and say ‘Dad, I have an idea of how you can get more votes,’ he’s always throwing out ideas. We have to give Barron some serious credit.”
Earlier this week, Nigel Farage shared a photograph with Barron, praising the tall 18-year-old’s contribution to his father’s campaign success.
Reports indicate that when presented with potential podcast interviews by two Republican consultants, the President-elect sought Barron’s opinion before making decisions.
Barron recommended starting with Adin Ross, a 24-year-old internet personality known for streaming video games and conducting interviews with contentious figures, including Andrew Tate and Nick Fuentes.
The August interview with Ross proved highly successful, garnering millions of YouTube views. Ross demonstrated his appreciation by presenting Trump with substantial gifts, Daily Mail reported.
Trump welcomed Ross to his Mar-a-Lago residence for a podcast recording, noting this was a rare privilege. Despite their significant age gap, as evidenced by Trump’s comment “My suit is older than you,” the interview attracted over 2.6 million YouTube views.
Subsequently, Trump participated in interviews with various podcast personalities, including Logan Paul, Joe Rogan, Bussin’ with the Boys, and the Nelk Boys.
Earlier at a Madison Square Garden rally, Trump acknowledged Barron’s internet popularity. He said, “Barron is the king of the internet,’ Trump declared at his Madison Square Garden rally in New York two weeks ago. ‘People can’t get enough of him. The way people follow his every move — it’s truly something.”
