Curse Of The Crypto Nerd: Is Barron Trump Having Difficulty Blending In At NYU?
US President Donald Trump’s youngest child, Barron Trump, a rising star in the crypto realm, relocated to the White House a month ago after starting his second year at New York University’s D.C. campus.
Speculations have flared about his social life, with reports indicating he may be having trouble making connections. Kaya Walker, the former president of the NYU College Republicans, had previously labeled him an “oddity,” noting that he merely “attends class and then heads home.”
However, these speculations have recently been dispelled. Trump, during a recent golf outing with his granddaughter Kai, dismissed the rumors and affirmed that Barron was “doing well.”
Last week, Kaya Walker, president of the NYU College Republicans, commented on Barron Trump:
‘He’s somewhat of an oddity on campus. He attends class; he goes home.’
Today, she was compelled to resign.

The video of Trump golfing with Kai has garnered over 1.4 million views.
At the same time, criticisms have arisen regarding the timing of Trump’s golf outing, as it coincided with the ongoing US government shutdown entering its second week.
California Governor Gavin Newsom criticized the president for indulging in golf while suggesting cuts to Medicaid and ACA subsidies.
He closed YOUR government.
He escalated YOUR healthcare costs.
He raised YOUR taxes while slashing taxes for billionaires.
Now he’s off golfing. https://t.co/agyGPnMlIL

Amid all this, Barron’s name surfaced in discussions about a possible position on TikTok’s board, in line with Trump’s campaign promise to “protect” the network.
Jack Advent, Trump’s former social media strategist, proposed this notion, referencing Barron’s appeal as a youth icon. However, Barron has not yet made any comments regarding this.
Barron Trump, the 19-year-old son of President Donald Trump, is reportedly under consideration for a board role at TikTok’s new U.S. entity following his father’s deal separating the app from Chinese ownership.
