Adin Ross reveals what pal Barron Trump is really like behind the scenes: 'He's the coolest guy'

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Barron Trump might just be the most mysterious figure in the Trump orbit.

Tall, private, and completely absent from social media, the youngest Trump has fascinated the public for the longest time. Kick streamer Adin Ross recently offered a rare peek behind the curtain into Barron's persona, the Irish Star reported.

Adin stopped by Logan Paul and Mike Majlak’s ‘Impaulsive’ podcast a few weeks ago and ended up dropping a few nuggets about the 19-year-old.

Adin Ross says Barron Trump is an 'amazing human being'

“Barron's a really cool guy. He's the coolest guy... I think he’s genuinely brilliant and an amazing heart, great soul. Barron is awesome. He’s an amazing human being," Adin Ross gushed. 

Even Logan and Mike were curious about whether Barron would ever drop by their podcast someday. Adin hesitated, but said Barron might just make some media appearances someday.

“He’s very, very smart,” Adin emphasized again.

According to Adin, Barron might’ve had a much bigger role in President Donald Trump’s media strategy than anyone realized. Barron convinced his father to do more podcast interviews, which Adin suggests was a game-changer during last year’s race.

“Because I was with Barron and President Trump, [Barron] was like, ‘Dad, this is who I’ve been talking about,’” Adin recalled. “And Trump looks at me and says, ‘All right, I’ll do it. I’ll do it.’”

According to Adin, Barron is “charming, well-spoken and smart."

As it turns out, one of Trump’s most viral interviews — the August 2024 sit-down with comedian Theo Von — was Barron’s brainchild.

Donald Trump himself confirmed this little power play during a recent chat with US troops in Qatar. 

“My son, Barron, said, ‘Dad, you’ve got to do an interview’ with somebody I hadn’t heard of. But my son knew very well,” the 78-year-old shared.

He didn’t know what to make of the mullet-wearing podcast host at first. “Who the hell is Theo Von?” Trump reportedly asked his son. But Barron made his case.

“He’s such a big guy. You’ve got to do an interview,” Barron told his dad, listing off the names Theo had interviewed in the past. “So he knew all the names,” Trump marveled.

The strategy paid off big time. The podcast connected Trump with younger male voters — Theo’s core fanbase — in a way no traditional TV interview ever could. 

The unlikely conversation covered everything from addiction and family dynamics to politics and personal struggles, undoubtedly helping Trump score points with Gen Z and millennials alike.

Barron Trump might be the glue between parents Melania and Donald 

Behind the scenes, it seems Barron Trump is more than just the tall, quiet kid. According to Mary Jordan, author of 'The Art of Her Deal: The Untold Story of Melania Trump', Barron might be the glue holding his famous parents together.

“Barron is critical here, too,” Jordan told The Times. “Melania is enormously close to Barron, and he is really into the fact that his father is president. Melania and Donald are now spending more time together and appearing as more of a couple than they have in the past. They’ve been in a bunker together, and they’ve come out of it closer.”

Melania herself gave a shoutout to her son during a speech at the White House’s Mother’s Day event earlier this month. “Motherhood: The life-changing event that makes women invincible and exposed at the same time. It’s remarkable, really, that my son’s life creates unimaginable, unpredictable concerns and thrills for me, even until this day,” she said.

President Trump wasn’t shy about praising her mothering chops either. “I especially want to thank one of the best moms that I know that I’ve ever seen. Sometimes she’s almost too good,” he said. “She’s so good with Barron that he’s grown up strong and nice, and he’s a good boy, he’s a good student, so I want to thank you. You’ve done a great job.”
