After the Trump campaign confirmed soon-to-be-graduate Barron Trump’s role as an RNC delegate, and his dad awkwardly forgot his age while reacting to the news, he’s turning down the role, according to his mom.
In a statement from former First Lady Melania Trump’s office, the 18-year-old’s “prior commitments” are blamed for his upcoming and unforeseen absence from the July convention.
“While Barron is honored to have been chosen as a delegate by the Florida Republican Party, he regretfully declines to participate due to prior commitments,” the statement reads.
I wonder how much of this change is the result of the whole world saying “Well, he’s 18 and getting into politics - the gloves are off now.” Wouldn’t surprise me if it was his mom’s doing. I don’t like her, but good on her if she pulled the plug on this.
Melania was shopping for rugs on January 6. She knows how to avoid the shitstorm.
