Barron Trump backs out of RNC: Melania's team blames "prior commitments"
salon.com
After the Trump campaign confirmed soon-to-be-graduate Barron Trump’s role as an RNC delegate, and his dad awkwardly forgot his age while reacting to the news, he’s turning down the role, according to his mom.
In a statement from former First Lady Melania Trump’s office, the 18-year-old’s “prior commitments” are blamed for his upcoming and unforeseen absence from the July convention.
“While Barron is honored to have been chosen as a delegate by the Florida Republican Party, he regretfully declines to participate due to prior commitments,” the statement reads.
Fucking hilarious. Prior commitments on the four days your father, the former president, will be nominated for president again. What are these more important commitments?
Baron must really hate his dad. Also, I assume Melania does too, especially with him forgetting his son's age and once again publicly running through the affair he had 4 months after she gave birth. Even if he doesn't care about the kid, he should be able to calculate from the dates that keep coming up in his trial.
His dad probably only was around for him when he was needed as a prop in front of cameras. And maybe show up briefly to give him a gift card on his birthday.
He’s 18 now. Criminal conspiracy could land him in prison.
I hope he does decide to get into politics but as a Democrat. Wouldn't that just chap Trump ass.
Trump was a Democrat until he realized the Republicans were dumb enough to vote for him. He'd respect self interest.
Then enlist in the military.
I wonder how much of this change is the result of the whole world saying "Well, he's 18 and getting into politics - the gloves are off now." Wouldn't surprise me if it was his mom's doing. I don't like her, but good on her if she pulled the plug on this.
Melania was shopping for rugs on January 6. She knows how to avoid the shitstorm.
Actual rugs that go on the floor or different hair for that asshole husband of hers?
Like pretty much everything with Trump, the more you look the worse it gets.
He doesn't have a wig; what they did is called a hair transplant. They take the part of the scalp that's still growing hair and move it to the front of the front of the head. Trump's was so painful that he beat up first wife Ivana for suggesting it.

I'm with Melania here daddy trump probably hasn't got long left even if he wins its not worth subjecting him to the media circus for nothing.
According to one report, on January 6 Melania was looking at rugs. Nice to see that Barron is following the footsteps of his smarter parent.
I don't know about "smarter" - she seems like a sack of bricks to me.
Moderately less shitty...?
Less shitty, in her own words "I don't care, do you?"
Some of her trolls on Donnie were pretty genius.
I mean, her First Lady crusade was fighting cyber bullying.
This pleases me. Good on you baron. You have your whole life ahead of you, no need to ruin by following daddy's foot steps
I was an 18 year old boy once. Getting laid was pretty high priority. Hitching yourself to the regressives will alienate kids his age, fucking up the priority.
It's bad enough the poor kid was born into this family. I'll feel bad for him unless he embraces the bullshit. Hopefully his dad will die soon and he can try to be a good person.
“ My mommy said I didn’t have to”
Yes, this high school graduate has commitments that are more important than the older professionals that will be the delegates.
Nobody in the trump circle can do anything but lie.
Whatever Melania.
I don't know quite how you would do this, but I'd like a combination of this press release and the first press release announcing he would be a delegate set to the music of the song Dueling Banjos.
It works as an AI music voodoo (thank you autocorrect) featuring Barron as the banjo boy and Tootsie as Ned the piggy fuckee
rumm, Ned was the pig. This isn't Black Mirror. That had the British PM fucking a pig .. on TV.
Oh, right. Ned was squealing like a pig.
That still works while Stormy pegs Sleepy Don from behind.
Damn, now I gotta go watch Burt in Deliverance again.
Ps. Fun story about the making of the movie. So when the stunt crew was working on the waterfall scene they weren't sure whether they should use a stuffed dummy or a person. They decided to try both in 2 separate shots, with Burt himself going over the falls after the mannequin shot.
Afterwards the crew and director got together to see which shot was best, the dummy or Burt. Someone asked what the mannequin shot looked like and the director thought it was so-so. Then they asked about Burt's shot. The director said it looked like a dummy going over the falls.
"According to his mom" Jesus christ, MSM is really jacking this one off hard
It's literally what happened. It wasn't him who said it, it was the spokesperson for his mom.
Which is what makes this so funny. First the Trump team issues a press conference that it's happening then, apparently, Melania goes, "fuck no it isn't!" and releases her own press release about Barron having "prior commitments" on the day his dad gets officially nominated for president.
Just in case you were wondering how that marriage has been going.
I'm not a fan of her, but this was a smart move to keep her son out of this political media circus if she cares about him. I doubt Donald Trump gives a shit about him, he just wants more of his family in power because he runs politics like the mob.
I meant it more as "wow, I can't believe MSM is treating her like an official liason for her own son", more than a little (then quickly not) surprised they are treating her as a news source, and how many people pay attention to what comes out her mouth
Edit- I'm trying to reply to you buddy, keeps putting it after my original comment 🤷♂️😁
