Fans shocked by Barron Trump’s transformation after US election –

The online community is buzzing about Barron Trump, who took the spotlight from his father on election night, towering over the rest of the Trump family. Fans were stunned to see the youngest Trump sibling, now 18, standing at an impressive height — a transformation from the teen we last saw four years ago.

Standing at approximately 6-foot-9, Barron has outgrown even his father, who at 6-foot-3 is among the tallest U.S. presidents. While Donald Trump’s height was once a talking point, Barron has eclipsed his family, making Eric Trump, who is 6-foot-6, look “short” by comparison, as Trump once joked.

Born in 2006 to Donald and Melania Trump, Barron is the youngest of five siblings, with significant age gaps between him and his elder brothers and sisters, Donald Jr. (46), Ivanka (42), Eric (40), and Tiffany (30), who, at 5-foot-8, is the shortest in the family. By the age of 15, Barron was already taller than his parents, sparking curiosity about his rapid growth spurt.

Now a freshman at New York University, Barron’s achievements are not just physical. He recently enrolled in the Stern School of Business, which Trump was quick to highlight. “He’s a very smart guy with a high aptitude,” Trump told the Daily Mail. “He was accepted to a lot of colleges… It’s a great school.”

During Trump’s election night event at Mar-a-Lago, Barron, who had just cast his first-ever vote in support of his father, stood with the family on stage, visibly towering over everyone. Since Barron is rarely seen on the campaign trail, this reappearance, coupled with his height, left fans stunned.

Social media couldn’t get enough of Barron’s transformation. One Twitter user remarked, “Barron Trump may very well be just three normal height humans stacked on top of one another,” while another joked, “One way that it is definitely not 2016 all over again, is that Barron Trump is like 7 feet tall now.” The jokes even led some to suggest Barron trade business for basketball, with many predicting that he could be NBA material.

Trump humorously shared a similar sentiment. “I told him, ‘You’re gonna be a basketball player.’ But he said, ‘Actually, I like soccer, Dad.’” Trump noted, “At his height… I like basketball better, but you can’t talk them into everything.”
