Just days after the Trump cabal announced the youngest spawn was joining the latest grift, Melania Trump countermanded the directive and said Barron would not be a delegate to the Republican National Convention, the Daily Mail reports. “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 Office of Melania Trump said in a statement with no other details.
The news may be a blow to Trump, who told a Philadelphia radio show that he frequently gets political advice from his 18-year-old son with his third wife. “He’s really been a great student. And he does like politics. It’s sort of funny,” Trump said on Kayal and Company, a conservative talk show. He’ll tell me sometimes, ‘Dad, this is what you have to do.'”
