‘It’s Not Easy’: Trump Provides Update on Son Barron After Trial Verdict

Former President Donald Trump said his youngest son, Barron, has struggled amid the fallout of the New York criminal trial.

In an interview with Phil McGraw, known as “Dr. Phil,” the former president answered questions about how the jury’s guilty verdict impacted his family.

“It’s not easy,” former President Trump said in response to a question about how his youngest son is handling the situation. “He’s a great kid, he’s a good student, he got accepted to different colleges. Some of those colleges all of a sudden, they’re rioting all over the place. But he’s a good boy. He’s a tall boy, very tall, and he’s a great kid. Good-looking kid. And, you know, he’s going to be at college,” he continued.

Referring to the allegations, the former president said that his son “doesn’t say it, and I think he doesn’t say it because he doesn’t want to hurt me, and he thinks it’s possibly a hurtful conversation.”

“But it has to affect my family, and I think that’s really very unfair. Because I have a very good family; I have good kids, I have a wonderful wife,” he added, again describing the case against him as consisting of “fake” allegations.

“It certainly is not a good thing. It affects me more than it would if it were just about me, I wish it would be just about me,” he added.

During an interview several days ago with Fox News, the former president made similar statements, particularly about his wife, former First Lady Melania Trump, after the conviction was handed down on May 30.

In that interview, the former president said that Mrs. Melania Trump is doing “fine” but added that the trial was “very hard for her.” He added, “It’s tougher, I think it’s probably in many ways, it’s tougher on my family than it is on me”

The former president was found guilty last week of 34 counts of falsifying business records. Prosecutors alleged he fraudulently misclassified payments to Stephanie Clifford, better known as adult entertainer Stormy Daniels.

He denied the allegations and pleaded not guilty, later vowing to appeal the guilty verdict that was handed down.
