As Donald Trump delivered his farewell speech in Washington, D.C., each of his adult children were present, but younger son Barron Trump was conspicuously absent, The Daily Mail [1] reports.
Reports say that the teen, the only son of Trump and former First Lady Melania Trump, flew on Air Force One with his parents to Florida. But he wasn’t seen on the tarmac standing with his siblings to listen to his father’s speech. And People [1] reports the youngest Trump wasn’t seen leaving the White House with his parents Wednesday morning as they traveled to Joint Base Andrews in Maryland to board Air Force One.
Right before boarding Air Force One, Trump, who had spent months baselessly claiming the election was rigged, addressed the crowd, to laud President Joe Biden.
“This week, we inaugurate a new administration and pray for its success in keeping America safe and prosperous. We extend our best wishes, and we also want them to have luck — a very important word.”
He could have been decent about all of this and never mentioned voter fraud. Because it didn’t happen. That’s not the path he took. Always cruel, Trump resorted to even greater cruelty, egging his supporters on until they committed horrific acts of violence, pardoning creeps like Steve Bannon, and continually spreading lies and misinformation that finally led to a permanent Twitter ban.
Hopefully, young Barron will turn out to be a better person than his father is, but corruption rules the day with this family so I’m not holding my breath here.
So obviously Barron’s whereabouts were ahem, up in the air, but folks on Twitter couldn’t help but wonder about his whereabouts. Some even compared him to Home Alone’s Kevin McAllister.

Did Trump and Melania forget to take Barron with them when they left for Mar a Lago today? He did not board Marine One or Air Force One. pic.twitter.com/AyrNS6iqzV [4]

Is Barron still in the White House like some sort of Home Alone situation

I don’t care where Barron Trump is, as long as he grows up happy, and gay, and marries a beautiful Mexican man.

They had to leave Barron with her parents because Donald does not like anyone taller than him to be in the shot.

Did anyone ever find Barron and ship him off to his parents in Florida?
