I’d like to give him the benefit of the doubt, but his last name is Trump, so the odds of him being a cesspool of a human being are astronomically high.
Shit apples don’t fall far from the shit tree, Randy.
I know a kid who went to his last school. He said Barron was nice and well liked. He’s 18 so there’s little chance he isn’t having a rough time adjusting to adulthood especially considering being Trump’s son. Weird subject for a story though
This is shit journalism. Yeah, his name is Trump so he’s probably an asshole, but he’s living his life, which has no impact on your life or mine. He’s a private citizen, and his alleged assholery is not a public matter.
I used to believe in the whole private citizen but then seeing News really blew it up like “Obama’s daughters eat provolone cheese instead of American cheese!”.
What? His ‘living life’ that’s ‘not a public matter’ includes standing behind the president of the United States as he’s sworn in. He deserves the utmost public scrutiny, especially considering three of trumps other children already take an active role in his presidency. They meet world leaders, but you just want to avoid looking at whatever sketchy shit this one might be up to. He had the option to avoid the public and decided to be another gremlin like his clown ass brothers.
Next time don’t get on the stage if you don’t want the limelight.
You’re telling me your parents never dragged you around to stupid shit and expected you to pretend you weren’t pissed about being there?
Not at 18.
They did. They were also terrible and I moved out at 17.
Barron’s parents are without a doubt worse, he was 18 at the 2025 inauguration, and you still want to describe the situation as if he’s a small child getting dragged around by his legal guardians. He’s a little fascist under daddy fascists wing.
Rich parents exert a huge amount of control over their children via financial manipulation.
There’s been essentially no reporting on him, so where are you getting this “fascist” accusation from?
Prophecy has him as the final US President so he will always be part of the zeitgeist.
Maybe they’re onto something. What if, instead of voting for people based on their ideals and record, we just passed leadership down through bloodline? Has anyone tried that before?
Based on primogeniture, wouldn’t that mean Don Jr is taking over? Then Eric? Clearly, the girls would be skipped…
So does this mean Barron is going to kill his brothers to ascend the throne?
Well, Don jr. will die from congenital gonnorea, and Eric is fated to drown in a bathroom after clogging a toilet with unshredded documents.
Tentatively excited for the American War Of The Roses.
It’s all complex and entertaining until some Welsh cattle rustler slips in and steals the whole thing.
Some cultures embraced the concept of ultimogeniture, under the premise that the youngest child would be raised with the full benefit of wiser parents and inherit younger, but generally not too young.
It’s apparently pretty effective when the culture encourages the youngest child to stay home as a caretaker for their parents, but in terms of kingdom inheritance can cause problems.
So does this mean Barron is going to kill his brothers to ascend the throne?
I mean, we can only hope…
That is on my 2026 bingo card, not 2025
UK here just saying that if you want a monarchy, we’ve got a decent one (as monarchies go) that won’t try to financially rape the peasants to death, we’ve moved past that now.
What say you Americans, ready to become Canada 2: Empire Boogaloo?

I think we were a bit too hasty in declining George III’s declaration of love.
My daughter goes to NYU although she isn’t in the business school which probably has more conservative assholes than she encounters in her line of study. She says everybody around her thinks it’s weird and basically debate how much shit to give him should they cross his path.
From what I gather, there are two camps.
Camp A thinks he’s a trump therefore they’ll call him a fucking Nazi to his face if given the chance.
Camp B thinks he’s not responsible for his father’s actions but he hasn’t done anything to distance himself from them so they’ll call him a fucking Nazi to his face if given the chance too
It’s a very nuanced debate, I don’t know which side I would support.
NGL, you had me in the first half
Is this website just full of deranged people like Reddit?
It’s worse. Much worse.
You’re seeing the US fall into fascism in real time, and this is what you’re concerned about?
Hey, y’all… let’s go back to the old internet rule of not feeding the trolls. There’s a small enough amount of people actively posting right now to stop those users in their tracks if we ignore them.
In the attention economy don’t give them attention.
I appreciate it, but my comment was just as much of a throwaway comment, intentionally so
Yes, it’s not you, it’s the whole world that is deranged
I like this comment because you can put it under anything.
It’s such a nothing comment; the only side it picks is that the commenter posting it is better than everyone else, and wants to invite argument for arguments sake.
Can’t put my finger on it, but it’s very “Twitter bot”-esque.
Account is only 2 hours older than the comment, so you’re probably spot on with the bot assessment
I wouldn’t expect the son of a sociopath to be terribly well-adjusted.
TWO sociopaths.
On campus, nobody really knows what’s up with that guy, other than that he’s not like any of the other students. “He’s sort of like an oddity on campus,” says Kaya Walker, the president of the NYU Republicans. “He goes to class, he goes home.”
That seems like a pretty kind assessment for what must be a super weird experience for everyone else on campus. A constant Secret Service presence seems like it must disrupt the other students’ lives, as well as the professors at the school. In fact, Walker quoted one of her own professors as saying “he doesn’t really belong here.”
I might be projecting here, but sounds to me like he just wants to be left alone. Like, no matter where he stands politically, being the son of the president alone (let alone this one) must be pretty difficult for an adolescent.
I say let’s leave him be and not judge him based on his family. If he if he joins the others, that’s different. But don’t treat him as an extension of his father, no matter how much of a dipshit that father may be.
I believe he tweeted something about the government stealing your money. He’s taken his stand.
That’s not really a stand on his father though. Just on government and taxes.
That’s pretty obvious what camp he’s in. Not just “fiscal conservative”, it’s burn down the government. You don’t need to extend past that to his father. Point is he’s openly taken his stand.
Yeah I agree. Even if he disagrees with his father, he can’t say it. The magats would be all over him.
I actually kind of feel bad for him, too. He’s in a difficult situation no matter what he thinks.
“He’s a guy you can have drinks with”… Uh no? He’s 18. You cannot have drinks with him unless your a piece of tra… Well that guy can, but that’s more like peer pressuring someone you really out age
I was very confused by your comment until I googled the drinking age in the US, and found it’s 21. I guess I assumed it was 18 like most countries
You are responsible enough for your own decisions at 18 that you can join the military and die for your country, but you can’t buy a drink for another 3 years.
That’s because in the 1980s when we looked into drunk driving deaths we found most involved 16-21 year olds. The nations that have better public transport or are more densely populated dont have these issues.
Hardly anyone who wants to drink at 18 doesn’t have access to alcohol.
Also decent chance he doesnt drink.
“The douche doesn’t fall far from the bag.”
The turd doesn’t fall far from the asshole
Weird, is something most people can be called, I’m more concerned with the other linked article in the story, citing a former behavioral specialist of barron’s recounting stories of animal, physical, and sexual abuse…
Yikes.
MAGAs are weird
Poor kid, he’s only 18 still, that’s gotta be a really tough way to grow up.
It didn’t help my kids growing up to have Trump in the Whitehouse either.
He is pretty rich kid, with close to zero possible problems in the future, and potential to become new US god-king after trump. Not that bad of a life.
One of the most horrific things I’ve seen is people on their death-beds, when they knew there was no more turning back and they had to say good-bye to everyone and everything they’d loved in this world.
The non-existent value of weirdly comparing his profile to a Greek statue aside, it’s not even a good comparison. He has a way more prominent nasal ridge, a higher, more angled and sharp jawline, lower cheek bones, and a much flatter brow/forehead. What exactly is meant to look similar here except that they are both white guys?
I see it more from the “Mythological” aspect. Less face simular and more both are legends and should be immortalized as statues.
Edit: To be clear I am not supporting the comparison. I am just explaining my take on the attempted symbolism of the image.
jerk off motion
I love the fact that it’s turning out that he’s just like his brothers and fathers–empty.
Kid never had a chance…
Neither did Trump for that matter, but here we are.
