Speaking out in support of Melania Trump, a former Republican politician acknowledged that he “understands” the incoming First Lady’s frustration.
A Republican has stepped up to support Melania Trump’s ferocious defense of her son, Barron Trump.
The soon-to-be First Lady is “prepared to chop off anyone at the knees who went after” her only son Barron, 18, according to Paul Robson, the former Republican mayor of Solon, who spoke to Cleveland.com.
The former politician claims that while the Trump family is a different story, some presidential children, such as those of the Clintons and Obamas, weren’t specifically targeted by the media.
He acknowledges that Eric Trump, Ivanka Trump, and Don Jr. “injected” themselves into their father’s administration, which helps to explain why they have been treated harshly by the media, but he maintains that Barron Trump’s scrutiny is unwarranted.
“Now that he is a strapping (reportedly) six-foot, nine-inch, 18-year-old New York University student, it will be harder to keep him from public view,” warned him.
When Melania voiced her annoyances about Christmas decorations in 2020 without realizing she was being filmed—a clip that was later shown on CNN—Robson says he and his wife sympathized with her.
Melania had attacked her then-friend with a direct profanity. “My wife and I were fully aware of her perspective,” he said.
People has learned from sources close to Melania Trump that she is incredibly committed to her son Barron, even going so far as to say she would live in Trump Tower to be close to him while he was attending New York University.
The source told the outlet, “Melania is concerned about the hate in the nation and how it affects her son, who is innocent of all of this.”
“They talk about life as it is and how they are in the spotlight,” according to the source. She makes an effort to normalize his existence. “If it’s even feasible,” they continued.
Melania recently acknowledged the special difficulties Barron faces as a student at New York University while expressing her great pride in him on Fox and Friends.
He can’t possibly be a typical student, in my opinion. “His college experience is very different from any other kid’s,” she said on the show.
She went on to highlight his fortitude, saying, “I’m really proud [of] how he’s handling [it].” He is extremely strong and aware of his unique position compared to other kids.
Melania offered words of encouragement to her only child as he sets out on this new journey: “Achieve your dreams. It’s your road. Because this is your life, pay attention to what you like and don’t like.
