Donald Trump praises Barron Trump as 'smart guy' on 19th birthday

 March 23, 2025

President Donald Trump praised his youngest son, Barron Trump, as a "smart guy" amid celebrations for the youngest Trump's 19th birthday.

During an exclusive interview on "The Ingraham Angle," President Trump praised his youngest son as extremely intelligent with a knack for technology that he made use of during his presidential campaign.

Trump told Fox News host Laura Ingraham that, "He can look at a computer. I try I turn it off. As I turn it off I turn off his laptop. I said, oh good. And I go back. Five minutes later, he's got his laptop. I say, how did you do that? None of your business, dad. No. He's got an unbelievable aptitude in technology."

Barron Trump is currently in his freshman year at New York University (NYU) in the Stern School of Business.

The youngest Trump is regarded by many as the most formidable of the Trump children with many already declaring him as the true successor to the Trump empire.

Heir To The Empire

Barron Trump, standing at an astounding 6'7", is the spitting image of his father while having the reserved and refined presentation of his supermodel mother, First Lady Melania Trump.

The youngest Trump has been on the radar for years as it was apparent he was destined for greatness at a young age. Now at just 19, Barron Trump has been credited with being the brainchild behind the Trump campaign's social media efforts.

During the inaugural parade at Capital One Arena, President Trump directly congratulated his youngest son telling the audience about the role he played in getting the Trump campaign an edge in social media.

It was Barron Trump who pushed for his father to make appearances on popular podcasts hosted by Joe Rogan, Theo Von, and others.

Trump's authentic hours-long interviews on different podcasts allowed Trump to break through the filter of the mainstream media and reach thousands of Americans to show his authentic self through hours-long live broadcasts.

Vice President Kamala Harris attempted to mimic this campaign strategy but failed to appear on major podcasts because of multiple demands concerning topics discussed, the length of interviews, and even appearing in the studio in the case of Joe Rogan's podcast.

Where Harris completely failed and further reinforced her image as an inauthentic empty suit, Trump enhanced his image and in many ways some credit the social media campaign with Trump's victory in the election.

Barron's Future

While Barron Trump may be a "smart guy" at just 19, he has a long way to go before he can step into leadership and play a greater role in the family business and the Trump political dynasty.

Barron is currently studying at the Stern School of Business at New York University and is reportedly already engaged in a luxury real estate venture. He will likely be focused on business in college and throughout his twenties.

However, things will get interesting when Barron Trump comes of political age as many see the potential for him to be a truly generational political figure in the next 15 to 20 years.
