the kid looked as if he had been sleeping and they had woken him up so that he would not miss out on his dads big acceptance speech. he is only 10 years old. What do you expect at 4 am in the morning east coast time?

During his father’s acceptance speech, Barron was a ten year-old drug out of his home to stand on a brightly lit stage at 2:00 am. I thought he looked sleepy and tired. At other appearances he’s looked bright and alert and paying attention to what was going on.

Whatever, it’s totally classless and shameless for anyone to start public speculation such as this about him.

I was referring to AndyJackson, His reasoning that Baron couldn’t have autism because he was going to such and such school. I did not say I thought that Baron had autism. I said it is POSSIBLE to have autism and have a high IQ and function well at such a school.

And it’s getting late tonight, too. My comment was intended for #1 rather than #51.

Exactly. Melanie probably had to wake him up to ask him to put on his suit and tie at 3:30 am. Telling him, Daddy won, you have to get dressed. Get your tie on. He did amazingly well all things considered. Smart, young kid. The Trump family has much to be proud of and Barron is at the top of the list.

People seem to think Barron is a teenager. He's not. He just turned 10 years old. He is a 5th grader. Barron is very tall for his age. He just turned 10 in March, meaning for the majority of Trumps campaign run Barron was just 9 years old. A fourth grader. He is very tall and poised and could possibly pass for a 13 year old in looks. People commenting on a 10 year old in a negative way is just weird. Very weird.

Barron is only 1-2 years older than Ted Cruz's daughter Caroline. And she is very young. People act like Barron is about to get his drivers permit when in fact he just turned 10.

[The video she shared pointed out some of Barron’s mannerisms during his father’s victory speech and at the RNC, calling them similar to children who are on the autism spectrum.]

How about it was 3 in the morning you idiot. The kid was exhausted.

Yep, the first time I ever saw Barron on TV was at Trump’s announcement of his canfidacy 7/2015, and I was really surprised at how tall he was at only nine years and a few months. He looked alert and interested that afternoon.

Nothing has happened lately. It is her account...and she is just trying to stir up the Clinton cult.

He is 5’10” tall. Kids in that sort of growth spurt NEED their sleep ! I understand why they woke him, so he wouldn’t miss such a important family moment, but expecting him to be alert for a 44 minute acceptance speech at 3AM would be unrealistic.

Met her at a fundraising gala for some cause in DC, about 20 years ago. Fat and slightly smelly.

She was with Cindy Crawford.... and all over her.

Like we both agreed, she is a real sick bitch.

I Googled it once, and she tweeted something offensive about Trump, and I’m pretty sure he responded in a like manner, so, she continued the offense.

Now, I’ve got to Google “Barron Trump height.” Wonder if it’ll bring it up as a suggestion.

O'Donnell was criticized in February after she joked at a comedy show that she'd rather have “autistic triplets” than her hard-to-manage teenagers.

She's an idiot. She doesn't know what she's talking about.

I've dealt with autistic individuals and it isn't as easy as she apparently thinks it is.

It was late, late at night when Barron was awakened to be with his family at his father’s acceptance speech. He was half asleep (as any 9 yr. old child would be) and stifling a yawn. I’ll be glad to see their lives settle down & hope they can be able to just relax in spite of the MSM antics.

He did look uncomfortable but what that told me is that he is not a spoiled rich brat.

He looked like any normal, sleep deprived, 10 year old who doesn't like wearing a suit coat and tie and is not used to it and being overwhelmed with all those famous and important people, who was trying to remember what mom and dad said about not doing anything on TV that would embarrass dad.

I wouldn't feel any more comfortable than he looked either.

My daughter, now an adult, was just recently told by her doctor that he is sure she's on the autism spectrum.

She's brilliant, sweet, good natured, but very socially awkward. She would have done well at a school like that.

FWIW, it wasn't till she was an adult that anyone suggested autism. Nobody really ever either noticed or remarked on it.
