Barron Trump, the youngest son of the 45th president, has recently taken his talents to New York University’s Stern School of Business, and, just like his father, he’s not shy about stirring up some drama on campus. Starting his academic journey has brought with it a mixed bag of affection and hostility from the student body. Who could have seen that coming? After all, being a Trump in Manhattan is a bit like being a cat at a dog show.
While Barron carries the last name that has become synonymous with both leadership and controversy, a recent article points out that he bears a striking resemblance to someone else far more famous — his mother, Melania Trump. Photos of Melania from her teenage years show a young woman who could easily pass for Barron’s twin when considering their features. The echoes of her beauty as a 16-year-old are certainly present in her son, which prompts the question: is Barron destined to become the next model or simply the next target of media scrutiny?

The similarity was highlighted by The Mirror, which dug up some old pictures taken by Slovenian photographer Stane Jerko back in 1987. Jerko has a knack for spotting beauty, reporting how a tall, slender girl with striking eyes captured his attention. It offers a nostalgic glimpse into the formative years of Melania, back when she was known by her maiden name, Melania Knauss, and probably causing a stir even then — though it didn’t come with the modern-day social media chaos.
Donald Trump himself has commented on the spitting image that Barron presents of his mother, stating that his youngest son’s temperament is a reflection of Melania’s calm nature. This takes the classic “like father, like son” sentiment and flips it on its head, reminding everyone that sometimes it’s mom who sets the tone. While the former president is often characterized as larger than life with his trademark light-hued hair, Barron opts for “distinguished” brown locks and heavy brows, which surely adds another layer for New York’s elite to dissect.
Adding to the spectacle is Melania Trump herself, who has just released a new book titled “Melania.” In her announcement, she seems poised to tell her side of the story, breaking her silence on everything from public misrepresentation to that infamous FBI raid on her Florida home. She emphasizes the importance of sharing the truth, which is undoubtedly a breath of fresh air for anyone tired of the relentless propaganda. After all, there’s nothing like a juicy memoir to set the record straight while simultaneously fending off the deep state’s invasive reach. Barron might be learning the ropes of business, but his family has already mastered the game of public perception.
