Barron Trump Goes Viral for Looking Just Like a Young Donald Trump

Barron Trump recently made waves online for his striking resemblance to his father, former President Donald Trump. A fan account on X (formerly Twitter) posted a side-by-side photo of the 18-year-old and a young Donald, sparking a flurry of reactions and comments about the family’s “strong genes.”

Though Barron has largely stayed out of the public eye, he’s been making more appearances lately. On Election Day, he was spotted alongside UFC president Dana White — a moment that drew attention not just for the company he kept but also for his deep voice and calm, confident presence. His father even gave him a shoutout at a campaign rally, crediting Barron with helping him connect with Gen Z by suggesting popular social media influencers.

Now 19, Barron is a student at NYU’s Stern School of Business, where he’s said to be well-liked on campus. While he keeps a low profile, insiders say he’s been bonding with classmates through online gaming.

Barron hasn’t shown any public interest in following his father into politics or real estate—at least not yet—but his recent visibility and uncanny resemblance to his dad have sparked fresh interest in the next generation of the Trump legacy.
