Trump's youngest son Barron has retreated from public life; Melania: I respect his decision

Odaily News: Barron Trump, the youngest son of U.S. President Donald Trump, has withdrawn from the public eye and "gone into seclusion" over fears of being targeted for assassination. The 20-year-old Barron has just completed his sophomore year at New York University. After three assassination attempts on his father within two years, he is extremely eager to maintain a low profile. A source said: "The kid is pretty reclusive." It is reported that Barron dislikes being seen in public within the White House grounds and always moves "quickly," heading directly to his private residence.

Recently, an Iranian media outlet aired footage allegedly tracking Barron's whereabouts, showing his university location, escort vehicles, and Secret Service posts, claiming his movements are "under full surveillance." The video also stated that a $10 million bounty has been placed on the 20-year-old Barron. Barron's fears stem not only from his father's experiences. Last September, MAGA podcaster Charlie Kirk was shot during a debate at the University of Utah, and Barron, a fan of Kirk, was deeply shaken by the incident.

Melania once revealed Barron's reluctance to appear publicly in a documentary named after herself. While discussing with Secret Service agents whether family members would participate in Trump's inaugural parade and walk along Pennsylvania Avenue, Melania said: "I know Barron won't go out, and I respect his decision."

It is reported that Barron has invested in cryptocurrency and appears to prefer playing a behind-the-scenes role. (First Financial)
