Despite being enrolled at NYU, Barron is reportedly almost invisible on campus. As TMZ described it, he “hardly exists” there, often slipping in and out of class quickly, shielded by his security detail.
Notably, during the presidential run, Barron encouraged his father to appear on podcasts popular with Gen Z and millennials. Lara Trump, his sister-in-law, noted, “Barron makes us all look so little. He's really smart, very entertaining, he's his father's son.”
“There have been many times I've been traveling over the course of the campaign with my father-in-law in the car. Barron will call and say, ‘Dad, I have an idea of how you can get more votes, you need to go to this baseball stadium’ or whatever.”
