During a recent appearance on the “Moms for America” podcast, Donald Trump spoke about his wife, Melania Trump, whom he praised for her parenting skills with the couple’s son, Barron Trump. “She’s great. She’s doing a tremendous job with my son, who is a fantastic guy,” he said. The former president also pointed out Barron’s height as well as some other impressive things about the teenager. “He’s a tall guy, very tall … I’d say 6’8.” He’s a great young man. Very good student. And I think he’s doing a good job, Barron. I think he’s doing a very good job.”
Since the interview, however, the Mar-a-Lago owner has faced backlash from fans who criticized him for focusing on Barron’s height while also accusing him of not having a relationship with the teenager. “I have never seen him engaged in any activity with Barron whatsoever other than walking into a dinner with him and Melania. Not even golf,” one user wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter. “He talks about his son like he’s an intern in the State Dept,” another person criticized.
Donald’s recent interview comes only a few months after he opened up about his family life and college plans for the youngest Trump. “He’s a good student, a great student, actually. We are thinking about him going to Wharton. Those are the things we are talking about right now,” the former president explained on “The Megyn Kelly Show.”
