On February 4, 2025, the youngest child of President Donald Trump, Barron Trump, was spotted on the campus of New York University. This marked his first public appearance since his father's inauguration. Although he seemed to act normally, online users zeroed in on his appearance, with some making unkind remarks.

During his time in New York, Barron donned a cream sweater layered over a white polo shirt. He paired this with black pants, black-and-white Adidas sneakers, and carried a backpack. Instagram users quickly shared their opinions about the teen, with one person teasing, "He's got baby hands awwww."
In response to that comment, another user quipped, "Just like daddy." Many echoed this sentiment, with a third adding, "He has tiny hands too ☝️," while another chimed in, "[He's] got his daddy's hands."
"He's got small hands like his dad," remarked another individual, while yet another netizen joked, writing, "Little hands 😂." Another teased, "Look at those lady hands lol. [sic]"

On Barron’s first day back at school, he was accompanied by a security team that escorted him from Trump Tower. He and his mother, First Lady Melania Trump, primarily live in the building rather than the White House.
The 18-year-old, who is studying at the Stern School of Business, traveled in a convoy of five SUVs to Greenwich Village. The area was secured by the New York Police Department (NYPD) and the Secret Service as Barron made his way onto campus.

In a previous interview, Melania shared that her main priorities are being a mother, first lady, and wife. She anticipates that her son will visit her and bring friends along now that he’s in college. Melania explained that parents guide their children until they’re 18 or 19, then give them the freedom to soar.

The devoted mom revealed that she respects Barron’s choices—whether it’s a yes or no, what he wants to pursue, where he wishes to go, or what he dreams of becoming. She also acknowledged that her son isn’t living a typical college experience, as he must always be cautious about whom he trusts and connects with.
These are rules Barron understands well, having grown up quickly. The First Lady mentioned that from the age of 10, her son stood out from other kids. She described him as a smart and remarkable young man, expressing immense pride in him.

Donald’s wife believes her son will share his aspirations with her because they maintain strong communication and a close bond. Before becoming first lady, Melania admitted she didn’t expect Barron to have a conventional college life due to his unique circumstances.

However, she expressed pride in his resilience and how he handles challenges. She added, "He knows he's in [a] different position than other children, and I just say, 'Make your dreams come true. This is your road, this is your life. Make sure that you listen [to] yourself and your likes and dislikes.'"
The caring parent also shared that Barron enjoys his new school. However, while attending his father’s inauguration in January 2025, Melania’s son once again captured attention. Many noted his striking resemblance to his father, while others commented on his height.

One person said, "Barron Trump [is] literally the tallest in the room by a solid 5 inches," and another added, "Man, Barron Trump towers over everyone! There is not a single person in the room that comes close to his height!"
"This isn't the first presidential inauguration Barron Trump has attended. In 2017, he stood beside his mother as she held the Bible for her husband during his swearing-in ceremony as the 45th President of the US."
