I’m not saying he’s off limits. I just think it’s a little weird how some posters are champing at the bit to start tearing into him.
Barron Trump Is Picked to Be Delegate at the Republican Convention

I wasn’t one of the people who lost their shit over David Hogg. Address your concerns to the people who did.
Well, unless he’s involved in the campaign or somehow is a part of dads administration I won’t be going out of my way to mention him.
I will admit I never liked David Hogg. There's something about him that makes me not trust him, instinctually. I'm not sure how honest he is.
Of the 100,000 things trump has done since January of 2017, this may be the one I have the least problem with. It’s a good experience for the young man. No issues whatsoever.
I don’t have any issues with him. I understand his passion for gun control, especially after what he and his friends experienced. I think the harshest criticism I’ve leveled against him was that there was a point where he was close to transitioning from “guy who’s trying to effect positive change in society” to “guy who really enjoys the spotlight.”
LOL, what 18 year old looks forward to going to Milwaukee for 4 days in order to be a delegate?
I think all of Trump’s kids (so far) have been successful human beings.
I completely agree with your last sentence. There was also an early interview where it seemed like his "live response" was redone to get it right.
even if we don't call them grifters and con artists...
they all just got handed executive jobs at their dad's company
i guess that's some people's definition of successful
Most wouldn’t, but a lot of kids his age are interested in politics. I think a lot of these pro-Palestinian protestors on college campuses would jump at the chance to be a delegate.
18-year-old me would have thought it would be pretty cool. 54-year-old me has little patience for crowds and would have no interest in being a delegate.
All of Trump's kids work for their daddy. None of them have had to have a job where their dad wasn't their boss.
If Biden got the age of one of his kids wrong there'd be three threads on it.
For a guy with one of the best brains ever, Trump sure does seem to get confused a lot.
What did Joseph Welch say to Senator McCarthy back in the day…”Senator, have you no decency?”
The GOP has made another such statement to the public.

yeah...i think my anti-trump bonefides are pretty strong...but this is really no big deal
i'm in my early 40s and i have to think about it for a second to come up with my wife's age
Melania says no. Barron has a prior commitment he must keep, and cannot attend the convention . Weird that nobody checked Barron’s schedule ahead of the announcement that he’d be a delegate.

Barron Trump, 18, won't be serving as a Florida delegate to the Republican convention after all
Former President Donald Trump’s youngest son, Barron Trump, won’t be serving as a Florida delegate to the Republican National Convention after all.

Correct. And we all know how stupid it is to criticize either of them for this. I’ll bet I’ve messed up one of my kid’s age multiple time over the last 20+ years. Now add 25 more years to my age and I doubt I can get any of the three boys’ ages correct on the first try.
Well, plus you do a lot of drugs, apparently.
I criticize Trump for being an absentee parent and showing them off as props only when needed, or convenient alibis.
Smoke weed every night and occasionally alcohol.
I can think of a million other things to criticize Trump about. Just saying it’s not all that uncommon to be off on your kid’s age by a year. Especially shortly after their birthday. I’m actually surprised he was within a year of his actual age.
Sure. I’m saying he sucks as a parent for dozens of reasons, and this is an example. He clearly wanted to trot his kid out as a prop, but #3 said no. Not knowing his age goes to an overall pattern of being a terrible, uninvolved, absentee parent.
