Barron Trump received widespread praise for his maturity and graciousness during his father’s second inauguration. At 18, Barron, a student at New York University, was seen shaking hands with President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, despite the contentious campaign between his father and the outgoing administration. Social media users lauded his conduct, with many commenting on his poise, class, and potential future leadership. Some users speculated that Barron, who is multilingual and well-raised by his parents, could one day become president.
Barron appeared at the event wearing a long black coat, white shirt, and purple tie, with a slicked-back hairstyle. He joined his parents, Donald and Melania Trump, for a church ceremony before the inauguration. His calm demeanor and dignified appearance stood out, with commentators noting his maturity for his age and exceptional upbringing.
Meanwhile, President Trump enjoyed an early success as former Florida Senator Marco Rubio was confirmed as the new Secretary of State with bipartisan support. Rubio’s confirmation signals a shift in foreign policy, particularly regarding China and the Ukraine conflict. Trump also began signing a series of executive orders aimed at fulfilling campaign promises, including addressing energy policy, border security, and government reforms.
