Barron was around 10 when Trump first assumed the White House office. Currently, the 18-year-old is studying at the Stern School of Business at New York University.

The video depicts him maturing from a kid at the White House to an adult who eventually outgrows his father in height. At his current height of 6 feet 7 inches, Barron is taller than the rest of his relatives.

According to some experts, Barron helped his father win the 2024 presidential race by introducing him to well-known podcasts like The Joe Rogan Experience, which allowed millions of people to relate to Trump on a personal level.

This is not the first time that one of Barron's videos has gone viral. Last year, childhood videos of Barron circulated online, with several fans noting his Slovenian accent inherited from Melania.

"I don't think it's possible for him to be a normal student. His experience at college — it's very different to any other kid. He's very strong, and he knows that he's in a different position than other children," she stated on the Fox & Friends episode.

Early Life and Background

Born on March 20, 2006, Barron Trump is the only child of Donald and Melania Trump. He spent much of his early life away from the public eye, compared to his older siblings. At 6 feet 7 inches, Barron is taller than Donald Trump, who stands at 6 feet 3 inches.

Education and Schooling

He attended prestigious schools such as Columbia Grammar in New York and later St. Andrew's Episcopal School in Maryland.

Barron began studying at NYU's Stern School of Business in 2024, taking a different educational path than his siblings.

Move to the White House

Initially reluctant to leave New York City for Washington, D.C., Barron moved to the White House in 2017 at age 11.
He lived there until 2019 when the Trump family relocated to Mar-a-Lago in Florida.

Hobbies and Interests

Barron enjoys sports like football, basketball, and golf. Despite his passion for football, his father Donald Trump has expressed concerns about the risks associated with the game.

Linguistic Skills

Barron is bilingual, fluent in both English and Slovenian, his mother’s native language.
