The tall teen was pictured leaning over the voting booth donning a dark suit and shiny shoes.

“Voted for the first time – for his dad!” Melania captioned the picture, which she posted to X on Tuesday night.

She added hashtags saying “18 years old,” “presidential election,” and “proud.”

Barron, a freshman at New York University, is Trump’s youngest son.

It’s unclear whether he voted in New York City or Florida.

Trump supporters shared their reactions to the family moment in the comments of Melania’s post.

“Priceless. Thank you for sharing Barron voting for his father,” one fan wrote.

“Way to go Barron!!! My 18 year old daughter voted for the 1st time, too!!! In Ohio…for Trump!!! She was so excited!!!” another shared.

“That suit. The lines. Flawless. What a sharp young man!” a third added.

At a rally last week in North Carolina, Trump shared some words of wisdom from Barron as he entered the final days on the campaign trail in the fight against Kamala Harris.

“I have a guy who’s home with the first lady. He’s very smart,” Trump said about Barron.

“He’s 18 years old. And he gives me good advice,” the former president continued.

Trump said the college student told his dad, “Take it easy now.”

“‘You just take it easy, Dad, alright? You don’t have to go too much here,'” Trump recalled.

The life of Barron Trump

Barron Trump is the youngest son of former President Donald Trump and former First Lady Melania Trump.

The U.S. Sun takes a look back at Barron Trump’s life.

Barron was born on March 20, 2006, to parents Melania and Donald Trump.

Barron was seen with his dad when the real estate tycoon was awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2007.

During his childhood, Barron was also pictured with his parents at the US Open Tennis championships.

Barron went viral when he sleepily struggled to keep his eyes open as Trump gave a victory speech following the 2016 presidential election.

Barron attended school in New York before continuing his studies in Maryland in May 2017.

He would often be pictured in and around the White House grounds during his father’s presidency.

In January 2021, Donald Trump departed Washington DC, after losing the 2020 presidential election. The family relocated to Florida.

Barron continued his studies at the Oxbridge Academy in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Barron turned 18 on March 20, 2024.

He graduated from the Oxbridge Academy on May 17, 2024.

On September 4, 2024, Barron started college and was pictured at New York University in Manhattan.

Throughout Donald Trump’s campaign, Barron was frequently reported to be a driving force behind Trump’s appearances on podcasts and YouTube channels aimed at young men.

He is listed as the DeFi visionary (short for decentralized finance) for Donald Trump’s new cryptocurrency venture, World Liberty Financial.

He added that the college student is “very wise.”

Barron is studying at NYU’s Stern School of Business, where his peers told The U.S. Sun in September that he’s just like any other college student.

“The Secret Service – they give him a little bit of a space and breathing room,” NYU student Rohan said at the time.

“Obviously he’s very known. Not even just from his status. Also just physically, you can tell [who he is] he’s clearly really tall,” Aaruush added.

Barron is 6 foot 9 inches tall.

He’s the only son of Donald and Melania.

Melania was seen accompanying Donald to the polls on Tuesday morning.

The former first couple cast their votes at a polling location in Palm Beach, Florida, near Trump’s private beach club and residence in Mar-a-Lago.
