The position as an at-large delegate for the Florida Republican Party will be the highest-profile political role thus far for Barron, former President Donald Trump’s youngest son.

It will soon be Barron Trump’s time to step into the political spotlight.

Trump, former President Donald Trump’s youngest child, who will graduate from high school next week and has largely been kept out of the political spotlight, was picked by the Republican Party of Florida on Wednesday night as one of the state’s at-large delegates to the Republican National Convention, according to a list of delegates obtained by NBC News.

In a family full of politically involved children, Barron Trump, who turned 18 in March, has retained much more of a private life than his older brothers, Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., both of whom will also be Florida at-large RNC delegates, along with Trump’s daughter Tiffany.

    You’re not all wrong, but if your takeaway is to not even vote, you’re a suicidal fool.

      If you took that as me saying I’m not going to vote, that says way more about your assumptions of people in my position than it does about me.

      I never once said I wasn’t going to vote (I literally just mentioned I have voted straight Democratic ticket for 25 years). I’m just pointing out that voting and “being involved” doesn’t defeat a system that is designed anti-democratically to begin with. Things like the Senate, the EC, first-past-the-post-voting, and so on literally make it an uphill battle.

      Once again, I never once said anything about not voting, those are words you chose to put in my mouth. Think about that for a bit, Mr. Projection.
