1. I actually don't think he's fair game unless he joins

the campaign or talks MAGA nonsense which for some reason I don’t believe he will.

[riversedge]

3. He seems the shy type--then again his mother has kept close

tabs on him. We shall see. He is be off to college soon--. I say leave him alone--. He has a lot of growing up to do in the real world.

[TwilightZone]

4. Agreed.

Unless he becomes an active part of the campaign, I see no reason why he should be targeted for anything.

2. It means he's an adult, but I don't think he's "fair game" unless

he gets involved with the campaign in some way. It's not his fault he has a terrible father.

5. I've never seen a photo of him smiling. Not even a fake "say-cheese!" smile.

10. Google is your friend.

Maybe you have never had teenage boys. They are not known to do a lot of smiling when they are around their parents.

[Oopsie Daisy]

19. Awww. Thank you. (I really had no idea that Google was my friend!)

Now I can say that I've seen one photo of him smiling.

6. My advise to him: Run, move to a different country and have a great life away from the insanity.

7. What a terrible burden to have tfg as your Dad. I would change my name.

[Traildogbob]

8. Sad

Daddy can’t afford a gift or 18th party for him.
Send money to Truth Social in care of Donald J. Trump/Barrons Birth day fund drive.
Every penny will be directed by aunty Lara to be used wisely.

9. The tweeter asked a good question.

What is meant by this?

[intheflow]

15. That he can be criticized like the rest of Trump's brood.

It doesn’t mean open hunting season with a gun.

[former9thward]

16. It sounds more serious than you are making it.

[intheflow]

18. Why?

Is the left known for making and carrying out physical threats? Have you never seen a thread bashing the older spawn where someone included Barron that someone else didn’t comment that Barron was a minor and thus shouldn’t be mocked? He’s no longer a minor so it’s open mocking season. If it meant physical violence, why note his age? Like killing him is okay now because he’s a legal adult? No.

[former9thward]

24. For someone to be obsessing about a teenage boy is sick to me.

Doing a countdown to the day when he becomes "legal" is very weird.

I remember when posters were blasting RWers when they made fun of Obama's daughters when they were in college.

[intheflow]

25. This take says more about you than the poster.

He never indicated he was counting the days until Barron turned 18. More likely, he read somewhere that it was his birthday and then was like, “Hey, he’s an adult now! Let’s trash him!” Either way, a stupid, petty post, but have you visited the 21st Century? A lot of what we are exposed to on social media is stupid and petty. SOP.

Edited to add: the person posing the question is a RWNJ “reporter” for the Washington Times and other equally questionable “news” sources. This man was stirring the pot and now he’s led you the believe this pot needs stirring. It doesn’t, tho.

11. As the son of a narcissistic father I

give him a lot of leeway. Also eighteen is still not a fully-formed adult. Leave him be until and when he actually starts spouting MAGA garbage or gives evidence that he's the proverbial apple that fell from Donald's rotten tree. If and when he goes that route then he's fair game.

[Botany]

12. I think Barron has some cognitive issues and even with or without those problems he should be left alone

He should never be thought of as “fair game.”

[BannonsLiver]

21. If he starts flapping his gums about immigrants and MAGA he is fair game.

Believe that.

[Frances]

29. Agree

I think he has learning difficulties
And should be left alone unless he does something really wrong

[Dear_Prudence]

13. Ron and Patti

Ron Reagan is the 'lifelong atheist, not afraid of burning in hell' and Patti Davis, the children of Ronald Reagan, both charted their own courses. If Barron was exposed to Mr. Rogers as a child, perhaps he will have developed some humanity and a moral compass. Maybe Dad being broke will help loosen the ties that bind the rest of the family to TRump Senior. Barron is 18, but I pity him and would give him the benefit of the doubt.

[TSExile]

14. Look at Mary.

Look how awesome Barron's cousin Mary turned out to be. May he turn out like her and not the rest of the family.

[GopherGal]

27. But Mary was the child of the black sheep of the family...

Barron is the child of sociopath Fred's Golden Child.
He's much more in danger of being the apple that didn't fall far enough from the rotten odiferous tree.

[leftyladyfrommo]

17. I heard he is autistic and brilliant in math

And science.

[Polly Hennessey]

20. If this is true than perhaps for the first time, we will

have a Trump that actually contributes to society. Oops, forgot Mary. She is a bonus Trump.

[BannonsLiver]

22. As long as he keeps his mouth shut there's no problem

But if he starts yammering about MAGA and immigrants and the woke mind virus all bets are off.

[republianmushroom]

23. This young man is having to pack a heck of a load.

[Deep State Witch]

26. Counting the Days

Until Melanoma files for divorce.

[elleng]

28. Whatever, I've read he's fluent in a number of languages.

[Oneironaut]

30. Why does he look like the guy from American Psycho?

[samplegirl]

31. Hard enough to have a fraud and a failure

For your dad!
