Donald Trump introduced his 18-year-old son Barron at a political rally for the first time during the criminally convicted former presidents return to the campaign trail on Tuesday night.
Barron, who sat in the front row, stood up and waved to the crowd and pumped his fist after his father introduced him and other members of the Trump family during his rambling 90-minute remarks from his Doral resort in Miami.
Trump joked that his youngest son is more popular than his sons Donald Trump Jr and Eric Trump.
Thats the first time hes done it, Trump said from the stage. He might be more popular than Don and Eric
Welcome to the scene, Barron, I dont know. He had such a nice, easy life. Now its a little bit changed. Special guy, right?

Also, I'm autistic and perfectly capable of telling people to buzz off when they try to make me do something I don't believe in. Being blunt and having a strong sense of justice are common autistic traits. Even if he was autistic, let's not pretend that means he doesn't have agency in his own life.

(5,156 posts)It's offensive to neurodivergent people to diagnose celebrities on the basis of stereotyped traits. You can't diagnose autism on the basis of whether someone speaks or not, or by specific characteristics of speech.

Barron can love his father but not really have any interest in politics or choose a completely different path than a Trumpian one.

Is his mother no longer able to protect him from his father?
Has Donald buried his wife on one of his golf courses? No, not that wife. His latest wife.
