Before the marathon State of the Union speech by Donald Trump, a family photo shared by Ivanka Trump sparked online attention, mainly because of the appearance of her younger brother Barron Trump.
Trump delivered a 1 hour and 47 minute State of the Union address outlining his economic vision, immigration stance, and foreign policy views. However, social media focused less on the speech and more on Barron’s striking height, with estimates placing him between 6-foot-7 and 6-foot-9, making him noticeably taller than his family members.
Users also joked about his “short tie” in the photo and commented on his towering presence, while others noted his rare relaxed smile in public images. Barron, who attends NYU’s Stern School of Business Washington Campus, generally stays out of the political spotlight but continues to attract attention due to his height and limited public appearances.
