It was a spectacular swearing-in of Donald Trump, from Melania Trump’s style statement to the fact that, after many, many years, the US has a vice president with facial hair.
However, one person who stole the limelight was Melania and Donald Trump’s only son, Barron Trump.

Barron reportedly advised Trump to connect with Gen Z voters, who are crucial in modern political campaigns.
Barron convinced his father to appear on the highly popular Joe Rogan podcast, which has been a major success, with over 50 million views.
“He knew the youth vote. We won the youth vote by 36 points. He was saying – ‘Dad, you have to go out and do this one or that one’. We did a lot of them. He respects them all, he understood them very well,” Trump said.

Barron Trump was born on March 6, 2006, and Donald Trump chose Barron’s name. In an old interview on The Oprah Winfrey Show, Trump said, “It’s a name I’ve always loved but I never had the courage to use. I gave the idea to Melania and then I was going to take it away at the very end and she said, ‘You can’t take it away! I’ve been calling him Barron while he’s been in my stomach and you just can’t take it away!. ”

Where Did He Study?
Barron grew up in the White House during Trump’s first term as president of the United States of America, but he’s mostly lived outside of the spotlight. He was just 10 when his father was sworn in at the US Capitol for the first time in January 2017. In fact, Barron remained in NYC to finish out the school year. He was enrolled at Columbia Grammar and Preparatory School on Manhattan’s Upper West Side and the St. Andrew’s Episcopal School in Potomac, Maryland.
