The Republican Party of Florida on Wednesday picked the youngest son of the former president to be an at-large state delegate to go to the Republican National Convention in July.
UPDATE: Barron Trump has now declined to be a Florida delegate due to previous commitments. “While Barron is honored to have been chosen as a delegate by the Florida Republican Party, he regretfully declines to participate due to prior commitments,” the Office of Melania Trump stated.
Original story follows:
President Donald Trump's son Barron has jumped into the political sphere, becoming a state delegate for Florida before he graduates from high school.

Other children in the Trump family were also chosen to be state delegates from the state of Florida, including Eric Trump as the delegation's chair. Donald Trump Jr. as well as well as Tiffany Boulos, daughter of Trump, will also be at-large delegates.
One Trump official told the outlet that Barron “is very interested in our nation’s political process" and would like to know more about it.
President Trump was recently permitted by NYC Judge Juan Merchan to attend Barron's high school graduation ceremony. Merchan had said he would consider the ask, after ordering Trump to be present at every day of the criminal trial against him.
Barron will graduate in next week's ceremony at Oxbridge Academy in West Palm Beach, Florida. Barron has not announced what he plans to do after he graduates.
The Republican National Convention will be in July in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where other state delegates are set to appear and nominate the Republican nominee for the 2024 election, presumably Donald Trump for 2024.
