Barron Trump, the youngest son of former President Donald Trump, has opted not to serve as a delegate at the upcoming Republican National Convention, despite being selected by the Florida Republican Party. According to a statement released by the office of Melania Trump, Barron expressed gratitude for the nomination but cited prior commitments as his reason for declining the role.
Barron, who celebrated his 18th birthday in March, was one of several members of the Trump family nominated to be delegates at the convention, slated to take place in Milwaukee this July. His siblings, Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump, and Tiffany Trump, will also serve as delegates.
The news of Barron's decision first came to light through a report by The Daily Mail. During the convention, Donald Trump is expected to announce his running mate, as he has been actively discussing potential candidates in both public and private settings.
In a recent radio interview with Kayal and Company, Donald Trump shared insights into his relationship with Barron, noting his son's interest in politics and occasional advice on political matters. "He’s a great guy, quite tall, and very good-looking. He's been an excellent student and enjoys politics," Trump said. He also mentioned Barron's upcoming transition from high school to college, noting that current events have influenced his college choices.
