Barron Trump Brags About His Father and How Much Money They Make, ‘My Dad Really Had a Hard Life’

This is insane.

Look, I understand that when you want clout in conservative circles, you just go around saying nice things about Donald Trump. You talk about how much you admire him, and you point out that we never had another president who went from business to politics, how he always says what he means, all that good stuff.

Everyone knows you’re full of crap, but that’s how you get it done.

What you don’t necessarily have to do is go on and on about Trump’s kids. Ivanka actually is relatively successful on her own, and Trump’s oldest boys will say enough good stuff about themselves that you don’t have to bother.

In other words, you just don’t have to kiss their butts to make Trump happy.

But it certainly does make Donald happy when people say nice things about Barron. He’s the one kid that actually looks like him, which he loves. And there’s already been plenty of talk about Barron eventually entering the world of politics himself. The former president would absolutely swoon if he could leave a legacy of one of his kids being president someday too.

Enter Patrick Bet-David, the conservative pundit behind the highly successful PBD podcast.

He was smart enough to pick up on this new way to Trump’s heart. And what better way to flatter the former POTUS than by quoting his own SON flattering him to begin with?

Speaking at the 2024 Sales Leadership Summit, Bet-David told the crowd that, following a broadcast with another guest the previous day, Barron Trump had stayed behind after it was over and offered to walk him to his car.

“We’re doing a podcast with Ryan Garcia, he stays there, he walks – he says, ‘Let me walk you to your car,'” Bet-David said. “The son of a billionaire who’s a president says ‘Let me walk you to your car.’ He’s working customer service. He walks us to our car and he’s standing there until we get in the car to leave.”

This already sounds dubious to me, but go on, Patrick:

“He says, ‘Look, no matter what I do, no matter what my brothers do, no matter how much money we make, our success will never come close to what our father had to do. Cause he really had the hard life, not us, we have an easy life.’ He JUST turned 18, are you kidding me? Like, what a freaking stud of a kid to say something like that, right?”

Okay, let me stop you there, PBD. Not only do I not believe even one second of that happened, but even if it had, are you seriously putting a kid on a pedestal for politely walking you to your car and saying a nice thing about his dad?

In what world is walking someone to their car considered “working customer service” or anything beyond just being nice? Something like that is only said by a person who thinks it’s other people’s JOB to escort them to their vehicle — or hold the door for them, or any number of everyday common courtesies that the rest of us do all the time for random strangers.

But there’s not a chance the story’s real, in my opinion.

I just can’t see any Trump, let alone the sullen youngest Trump, who’s been accused of being cruel to animals, classmates, and even his nanny, going out of his way to (a) walk someone to their car or (b) say a bunch of nice things about their dad, unbidden.

Remember, this is the kid who just joked about how disgusting it would be to have been born with a silver spoon in his mouth, since his was gold instead. And that was in a room full of podcasters.

I just don’t see a Trump kid doing this. The closest this story comes to sounding like something that actually happened is when Bet-David quotes Barron as only mentioning how successful he and his brothers are, leaving out the fact that Ivanka is the most successful Trump kid, financially speaking, and Tiffany is the only Trump child to have gotten an advanced legal degree.

Personally, I might still be a little miffed if I was Barron. After all, his dad just got done going on the PBD podcast and basically calling him a virgin who’s never had a girlfriend. I would be embarrassed to even be NEAR the host of a show that allowed someone to say that about me while I wasn’t there to tell the truth of the situation myself.

Watch Bet-David kiss Barron’s butt, and by extension, his dad’s:
