The position as an at-large delegate for the Florida Republican Party will be the highest-profile political role thus far for Barron, former President Donald Trump’s youngest son.

It will soon be Barron Trump’s time to step into the political spotlight.

Trump, former President Donald Trump’s youngest child, who will graduate from high school next week and has largely been kept out of the political spotlight, was picked by the Republican Party of Florida on Wednesday night as one of the state’s at-large delegates to the Republican National Convention, according to a list of delegates obtained by NBC News.

In a family full of politically involved children, Barron Trump, who turned 18 in March, has retained much more of a private life than his older brothers, Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., both of whom will also be Florida at-large RNC delegates, along with Trump’s daughter Tiffany.

        When children are talking about world politics do you get down on your knees and listen to their simple, half-understood analysis or do you say “thats nice, now go do your homework.”

          That depends on if you’re an asshole or not.

          The third option is you talk to children and listen to them and explain and teach.

            That wasn’t one of the options you were given but nice try. That’s reserved for my own actual children, not jackasses who have the simplistic worldview of a child. Have you ever tried “explaining and teaching” online?
