Where’s Barron? Trump’s Son Misses RNC After Rally Debut
Barron Trump was the only one of Donald Trump’s five children not in attendance at his father’s closing-night speech at the Republican National Convention on Thursday.
The 18-year-old’s mysterious absence was expected, with his mother Melania Trump’s office issuing a statement back in May that he would not be in attendance—despite the fact that the Republican Party of Florida had picked him to serve as one of the state’s at-large delegates at the convention.
“While Barron is honored to have been chosen… he regretfully declines to participate due to prior commitments,” Melania’s office said.
