Donald Trump’s daughter-in-law Lara Trump has said his son Barron deserves ‘serious credit’ for his father’s election win.
Lara, 42, who is married to Eric Trump, had been speaking with Patrick Bet-David on his podcast when she made the comments concerning her younger brother-in-law.
She told Bet-David: ‘Barron Trump is so cool. He’s like the sleeper. He’s kind of stayed out of the spotlight intentionally.
‘Barron makes us all look so little. He’s really smart, very entertaining, he’s his father’s son.
‘He is going to do really incredibly things, there have been many times I’ve been traveling over the course of the campaign with my father-in-law in the car
‘Barron will call and say “Dad, I have an idea of how you can get more votes, you need to go to this baseball stadium” or whatever.
‘He’s always throwing out ideas. We have to give Barron some serious credit.’
Barron is rarely seen publicly, but is credited with helping his dad earn the ‘bro vote’ by getting him to engage in some podcast interviews.

He is credited with spearheading the so-called ‘Bro Vote’ movement that secured his father’s unprecedented election victory by acting as his unofficial podcast adviser.
The college freshman was ‘very involved’ in selecting which podcasts the former president would appear on.
He was the one who urged him to sit down with video game streamer Adin Ross as well as with Joe Rogan, who hosts the most popular podcast in the world.
Besides appearing on podcasts, Trump also won over the hyper-masculine vote by attending football games, UFC fights and tapping into young men’s interests in alternative banking by launching his own cryptocurrency business.
According to analysis by CIRCLE, Trump managed to secure 56 percent of the vote of young men this election.
That was an increase of 15 percent, when 41 percent backed the president-elect in 2020.
Barron was reportedly a driving force behind the crypto decision, as well.
Bet-David has previously spoken about the teenager also after an interaction he had with him.
After filming a podcast with boxer Ryan Garcia, Bet-David said he was impressed with how the teenager handled himself.
He said: ‘The more I spend time with Baron Trump, the more impressed I am with him. Most interesting 18-year-old I’ve met.’
Bet-David said that Barron had walked him to his vehicle after finishing the podcast, saying: ‘He stays there, and he walks us. He says, ‘Let me walk you to your car.”

He said he was astonished that ‘the son of a billionaire, who’s a president’ would offer to walk him to his car.
‘He’s working [in] customer service,’ he said. ‘He walks us to our car, and he’s standing there until we get in the car to leave.’
The businessman claimed Barron then began gushing over his father and said he would ‘never come close’ to his achievements in life.
He claimed Barron told him: ‘Look no matter what I do, no matter what my brothers do, no matter how much money we make, our success will never come close to what our father had to do, cause he really had the hard life.’
‘Not us, we had an easy life,’ he added, according to Bet David, who said the interaction left him feeling that Barron was a ‘stud of a kid.’

The teenager has just started at the Stern School of Business at New York University and is being touted by some as the next Trump to lead the country.
The slogan ‘Barron Trump President 2044’ is so well-established already that you can buy badges inscribed with the message on eBay.
Following Trump’s election win, the teenager was spotted alongside members of his family inside Mar-a-Lago.
His father rarely divulges any pieces of personal information about his youngest son, but did so recently.
Asked by Bet-David if he was ‘good with the lades in school’, the president-elect responded: ‘I’m not sure he’s – I don’t think he’s had a girlfriend yet.’
Trump continued: ”I don’t think so. Every once in a while…he’s a good looking guy, as he spoke about his 6-foot-9 son.
