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.

    I personally feel you have him too much leniency. My first thought was to get angry because we constantly defy the founding men of the US (in not calling them fathers) and the idea of treating his slaves well and romantically dating a slave are the same talking points confederate apologists use.

    I know you pointed this out in your original comment but the only way you can treat a slave well is to free them and you can’t have consensual sex with someone considered your property.

    Considering Jefferson considered slavery morally questionable and deciding it was a necessary evil because of the political consequences (while making money off of slavery) he was either a hypocrite or a coward. Especially since John Adams was an abolitionist.

    Jefferson was a slaver regardless of his thoughts on it at the end of the day. Let’s call a spade a spade
