President-elect Donald Trump has described his youngest child, 18-year-old Barron, as a “beautiful boy,” a “good looking kid,” a “good looking guy” and “my very tall son.” The latter attribute—Trump ventured a guess that Barron is 6′8 during an appearance on Megyn Kelly’s radio show in 2023—can come in handy when trying to find the NYU freshman, who towers over even his 6′3 father. During a pre-inauguration reception at The Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Virginia on Sunday, Trump addressed the crowd and thanked the supporters in attendance, reserving particular gratitude for his family. When he called out to acknowledge Barron, Trump revealed an easy way to find his NBA-sized heir. “Where’s Barron? Barron’s not hard to find,” he told the crowd, in a video captured and posted to Instagram by conservative social media personality Jonas Viereck. “Barron, stand up, Barron.” Trump then joked to the crowd: “If Barron stands up you’ll see him.”
