Was it Donald Trump\u2019s youngest son, Barron Trump, who stole the spotlight at his father\u2019s inauguration? For many, the answer is a definitive yes.\n Now 18 years old, Barron began his freshman year at New York University\u2019s Stern School of Business in September 2024, where he is reportedly pursuing a degree in business and finance.\n At present, Barron resides at Trump Tower in Midtown Manhattan and commutes to campus for his classes. According to his mother, Melania Trump, it was entirely his choice. Speaking to Fox in September 2024, she shared, \u201cIt was [Barron\u2019s] decision to come here, that he wants to be in New York and study in New York and live in his home.\u201d\n However, an insider claims Melania prefers to keep a close eye on her son. \u201cLiving in a dorm in a college town isn\u2019t in the stars for him at this point,\u201d a source told People in December 2024. \u201cMelania feels it\u2019s better to be around him as much as possible.\u201d\n \n Voted for the first time – for his dad! #18yearsold #presidentialelection #proud pic.twitter.com\/kTzMFNn1AS\n \u2014 MELANIA TRUMP (@MELANIATRUMP) November 6, 2024\n Barron\u2019s poised demeanor at his father\u2019s inauguration caught the attention of body language expert Judy James, who described him as \u201cworking as a sweeper.\u201d She explained, \u201cThis means he tends to arrive and leave behind his parents, but instead of just walking off behind them as he did when he was younger, he spends time shaking hands and offering gracious-looking words.\u201d\n James elaborated, saying Barron\u2019s behavior \u201cdefines\u201d his growing presence and status without overshadowing his father. \u201cHe lets everyone know that he is becoming a force to be reckoned with in his own right, and because of his height and the increase in his confidence signals, it gives him a rather princely air, presence-wise.\u201d\n One notable moment was Barron\u2019s brief but striking interaction with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Lip reader Jeremy Freeman observed that Barron greeted Biden with a polite, \u201cG\u2019day to you, sir,\u201d before turning to Harris with, \u201cMa\u2019am, good day.\u201d Biden reportedly responded, \u201cIt\u2019s good to see you, man.\u201d\n \n Baron Trump walking over to Joe Biden to shake his hand.\n
