PALM BEACH, FLORIDA: At a recent private dinner at Mar-a-Lago, real estate mogul and former president Donald Trump and Melania Trump's son Barron Trump proved that he’s not just the son of a billionaire, but also a master of wit.

Inviting an eclectic mix of friends, including Patrick Bet-David, Adam Sosnick, Tom Ellsworth, Vincent Oshana, and Jesse Watters from 'Valuetainment', a current affairs podcast, Barron effortlessly stole the spotlight with his charm and humor.

During the evening, conversations flowed as freely as the wine, with many guests sharing their personal struggles with financial difficulties.

"Yeah, same here, I mean, I was born in the penthouse of a building all the way up top," he said, adding with a grin, “Life was hard,” per Irish Star.

He then playfully launched into a hilarious anecdote about his upbringing, quipping, “Who would ever eat food with a silver spoon? Mine was gold.”

This cheeky remark left guests both puzzled and thoroughly entertained.

Those at the dinner couldn’t help but praise Barron Trump, describing him as “witty, smart, and hilarious".

“Barron was sharp, funny, sarcastic, tough, quick, not weak," the guests later said in an episode of 'Valuetainment'.

“I've never laughed this hard. He ran the whole dinner with stories and entertainment. He gave honest life anecdotes about family—it was cracking me up. He was a kid, but he wasn’t snide or telling dirty jokes. He was an incredibly balanced, engaging, witty, funny guy. I came away liking him a lot.”
