President Donald Trump had nothing but praise for his youngest son, Barron, describing him as a “smart guy” with an impressive knack for technology.
Speaking to Laura Ingraham on Fox News the night before Barron’s 19th birthday, Trump marveled at his son’s natural ability with computers and highlighted their strong bond, as reported by The New York Post.

The president didn’t stop there.
He acknowledged the intelligence and hard work of all five of his children—Eric, Don Jr., Ivanka, Tiffany, and Barron—stressing how fortunate he is to have raised kids who not only attended top-tier universities but also love their country and put in the effort to succeed.
“I’m lucky. Look, you have to be a little bit lucky too. They are very smart and they’re good kids. And they work hard, and they love our country and they’re proud of their father. And we have a very good relationship.”
Though still young, Barron has already made his mark. During the 2024 presidential campaign, he played a crucial role in helping his father reach younger voters.

His advice on which podcasts to appear on proved invaluable in engaging the under-30 demographic—a group that establishment politicians often struggle to connect with.
Now, as a freshman at New York University’s Stern School of Business, Barron is charting his own course in the business world.
Last year, after graduating from Florida’s elite Oxbridge Academy, he set his sights on following in his father’s footsteps with a venture in high-end real estate.
In July 2024, Barron co-founded Trump, Fulcher & Roxburgh Capital Inc., an investment firm focused on luxury real estate.

Originally incorporated in Wyoming, the company is expected to relaunch in spring 2025 with its principal address at Mar-a-Lago—a strategic move that signals his ambitions.
The firm has already outlined plans to develop high-end properties, including golf courses and luxury real estate across Utah, Arizona, and Idaho.
With business acumen seemingly running in the family, Barron is poised to carve out his own legacy in the Trump dynasty.
As Barron celebrates his 19th birthday, it’s clear he’s not just the tallest member of the Trump family—he’s also a rising force in the world of business and politics.
