After the Trump campaign confirmed soon-to-be-graduate Barron Trump’s role as an RNC delegate, and his dad awkwardly forgot his age while reacting to the news, he’s turning down the role, according to his mom.

In a statement from former First Lady Melania Trump’s office, the 18-year-old’s “prior commitments” are blamed for his upcoming and unforeseen absence from the July convention.

“While Barron is honored to have been chosen as a delegate by the Florida Republican Party, he regretfully declines to participate due to prior commitments,” the statement reads.

    According to one report, on January 6 Melania was looking at rugs. Nice to see that Barron is following the footsteps of his smarter parent.

      I don’t know about “smarter” - she seems like a sack of bricks to me.

      Moderately less shitty…?

        Some of her trolls on Donnie were pretty genius.

        I mean, her First Lady crusade was fighting cyber bullying.

        Less shitty, in her own words “I don’t care, do you?”
