According to body language expert Traci Brown, although Barron Trump seemingly played along and matched his father’s energy, flashing both smiles and thumbs up to the group of eager supporters, below the surface there was something less pleasant going on. Case in point: Barron begrudgingly standing up for the crowd at his father’s behest. “A closer look reveals that he didn’t stand till he’s called to do so. And he shows barely a smile, keeping his mouth closed. So he’s not really into showing full emotion, staying more reserved,” Brown explained. “Possibly really doesn’t want the spotlight,” she added.
It’s no secret that Donald has made his political aspirations a family affair. Alas, since his golden girl Ivanka Trump made her stance on her father’s future crystal clear and Melania Trump’s plans for the campaign trail are more unclear than ever, it appears he’s now set his sights on young Barron. In fact, in May, Donald claimed on Philadelphia’s Talk Radio’s “Kayal and Company” that Barron had actually already been low-key advising him. “He does like politics. It’s sort of funny,” he gushed. “He’ll tell me sometimes, ‘Dad, this is what you have to do.'” Perhaps time will really tell whether or not Barron actually prefers the political spotlight. In the meantime, we’ll just file this one under all of the strange things about Donald’s relationship with his youngest son Barron.
