Maybe they’re onto something. What if, instead of voting for people based on their ideals and record, we just passed leadership down through bloodline? Has anyone tried that before?
Based on primogeniture, wouldn’t that mean Don Jr is taking over? Then Eric? Clearly, the girls would be skipped…
So does this mean Barron is going to kill his brothers to ascend the throne?
Well, Don jr. will die from congenital gonnorea, and Eric is fated to drown in a bathroom after clogging a toilet with unshredded documents.
Tentatively excited for the American War Of The Roses.
It’s all complex and entertaining until some Welsh cattle rustler slips in and steals the whole thing.
Some cultures embraced the concept of ultimogeniture, under the premise that the youngest child would be raised with the full benefit of wiser parents and inherit younger, but generally not too young.
It’s apparently pretty effective when the culture encourages the youngest child to stay home as a caretaker for their parents, but in terms of kingdom inheritance can cause problems.
UK here just saying that if you want a monarchy, we’ve got a decent one (as monarchies go) that won’t try to financially rape the peasants to death, we’ve moved past that now.
What say you Americans, ready to become Canada 2: Empire Boogaloo?

I think we were a bit too hasty in declining George III’s declaration of love.

NGL, you had me in the first half
Is this website just full of deranged people like Reddit?

It’s worse. Much worse.
“He’s a guy you can have drinks with”… Uh no? He’s 18. You cannot have drinks with him unless your a piece of tra… Well that guy can, but that’s more like peer pressuring someone you really out age
Also decent chance he doesnt drink.
“The douche doesn’t fall far from the bag.”
The turd doesn’t fall far from the asshole
I wouldn’t expect the son of a sociopath to be terribly well-adjusted.
TWO sociopaths.
Weird, is something most people can be called, I’m more concerned with the other linked article in the story, citing a former behavioral specialist of barron’s recounting stories of animal, physical, and sexual abuse…
This is shit journalism. Yeah, his name is Trump so he’s probably an asshole, but he’s living his life, which has no impact on your life or mine. He’s a private citizen, and his alleged assholery is not a public matter.
What? His ‘living life’ that’s ‘not a public matter’ includes standing behind the president of the United States as he’s sworn in. He deserves the utmost public scrutiny, especially considering three of trumps other children already take an active role in his presidency. They meet world leaders, but you just want to avoid looking at whatever sketchy shit this one might be up to. He had the option to avoid the public and decided to be another gremlin like his clown ass brothers.
Next time don’t get on the stage if you don’t want the limelight.
You’re telling me your parents never dragged you around to stupid shit and expected you to pretend you weren’t pissed about being there?
Not at 18.
They did. They were also terrible and I moved out at 17.
Barron’s parents are without a doubt worse, he was 18 at the 2025 inauguration, and you still want to describe the situation as if he’s a small child getting dragged around by his legal guardians. He’s a little fascist under daddy fascists wing.
Rich parents exert a huge amount of control over their children via financial manipulation.
There’s been essentially no reporting on him, so where are you getting this “fascist” accusation from?
Prophecy has him as the final US President so he will always be part of the zeitgeist.
On campus, nobody really knows what’s up with that guy, other than that he’s not like any of the other students. “He’s sort of like an oddity on campus,” says Kaya Walker, the president of the NYU Republicans. “He goes to class, he goes home.”
That seems like a pretty kind assessment for what must be a super weird experience for everyone else on campus. A constant Secret Service presence seems like it must disrupt the other students’ lives, as well as the professors at the school. In fact, Walker quoted one of her own professors as saying “he doesn’t really belong here.”
I might be projecting here, but sounds to me like he just wants to be left alone. Like, no matter where he stands politically, being the son of the president alone (let alone this one) must be pretty difficult for an adolescent.
I say let’s leave him be and not judge him based on his family. If he if he joins the others, that’s different. But don’t treat him as an extension of his father, no matter how much of a dipshit that father may be.
I believe he tweeted something about the government stealing your money. He’s taken his stand.
That’s not really a stand on his father though. Just on government and taxes.
That’s pretty obvious what camp he’s in. Not just “fiscal conservative”, it’s burn down the government. You don’t need to extend past that to his father. Point is he’s openly taken his stand.
Yeah I agree. Even if he disagrees with his father, he can’t say it. The magats would be all over him.
I actually kind of feel bad for him, too. He’s in a difficult situation no matter what he thinks.
I know a kid who went to his last school. He said Barron was nice and well liked. He’s 18 so there’s little chance he isn’t having a rough time adjusting to adulthood especially considering being Trump’s son. Weird subject for a story though
Poor kid, he’s only 18 still, that’s gotta be a really tough way to grow up.
It didn’t help my kids growing up to have Trump in the Whitehouse either.
MAGAs are weird
The non-existent value of weirdly comparing his profile to a Greek statue aside, it’s not even a good comparison. He has a way more prominent nasal ridge, a higher, more angled and sharp jawline, lower cheek bones, and a much flatter brow/forehead. What exactly is meant to look similar here except that they are both white guys?
I see it more from the “Mythological” aspect. Less face simular and more both are legends and should be immortalized as statues.
Edit: To be clear I am not supporting the comparison. I am just explaining my take on the attempted symbolism of the image.
jerk off motion
I’d like to give him the benefit of the doubt, but his last name is Trump, so the odds of him being a cesspool of a human being are astronomically high.
Shit apples don’t fall far from the shit tree, Randy.
I love the fact that it’s turning out that he’s just like his brothers and fathers–empty.
Conservatives are unable to imagine things clearly and so have to look to the past to better understand what is being said. But they also don’t have the imagination to distinguish between what’s being imagined and what happened in the past. So the end result is conservatives don’t want to do anything new because they don’t and/or can’t understand it.
MAGA look to the past to celebrate the psychotic asocial Trump crotch goblin because they don’t know and can’t guess what he will become. They can’t say “he’s going to be great because of this!”
Instead we get screenshots showing two human heads and how close they are to being the same. The person behind each is so radically different that there is literally no real comparison. But they want the accolades and history to remember them and the only thing they know is old shit that has happened.
