Ahead of his father's inauguration on January 20, a video has gone viral on social media, showcasing different stages in his life.

Barron was around ten years old when Trump first assumed the White House. The18-year-old is currently studying the Stern School of Business at New York University.
Last year, Barron's childhood videos went viral online and several fans were startled to see that he had a Slovenian accent from Melania.
It depicts him maturing from a young kid at the White House to an adult who eventually outgrows his father in height. With his current height of 6 feet 7 inches, Barron is taller than the rest of his relatives.
