During the recent inauguration ceremony on Monday, attention wasn’t solely focused on the major political figures. One moment that caught everyone by surprise was when Barron Trump had a brief yet captivating interaction with Joe Biden.
Towering at an impressive 6-foot-9, Barron Trump bent down to greet the departing president, but what really stirred excitement across social media was the soft-spoken exchange that followed.
Barron Trump has once again found himself in the spotlight. This time, it was during his father’s inauguration on January 20, 2025, where he shared an unexpected moment with former President Joe Biden.
Standing at 18 years old, Barron is currently a student at New York University. He was only 10 when his father, Donald Trump, first took the presidential oath. Accompanying his mother, Melania Trump, and older half-siblings, Barron attended the significant event in Washington, D.C.
At 6-foot-9, the commanding presence of Barron Trump certainly couldn’t be missed as he absorbed the cheers and vibrant energy during his father’s inauguration as the 47th president, while standing in the U.S. Capitol Rotunda surrounded by enthusiastic Republican supporters.
“This is my incredibly tall son,” Donald Trump announced, introducing Barron—the sole child he shares with Melania—to the audience, who responded with loud applause.
“Understanding the youth, he knew we could win their vote. We managed to capture the youth by a significant margin of 36 points. He encouraged me: ‘Dad, go to this event or that one.’ We followed through on many of his recommendations. He respects and relates to them. He has a good grasp on connecting,” Trump praised further.
Barron, who participated in his first election in November 2024, responded to the crowd with waves and a bright smile, as the applause washed over him.
