  • 5 years ago
Chelsea Clinton recently told a reporter to keep Barron Trump out of “jokes and analyses.”

Amid speculation over potential candidates for the next White House chief of staff, former first daughter Chelsea Clinton told a journalist to keep President Trump's youngest son, 12-year-old Barron Trump, out of "jokes and analyses."  She did so via Twitter and in response to Jonathan Chait of New York Magazine, who tweeted on Monday: "My darkhorse chief of staff pick: Barron Trump 1. Looks like Trump 2. Will not make Trump work 3. Cannot be tried as an adult."  Clinton shot back: "Please leave Barron Trump out of 'jokes' & analyses. He's a kid and private citizen and deserves to be left alone. Thank you." 
"This is not a joke about Barron Trump," Chait stated in his reaction to Clinton's tweet. "It is a joke about Donald Trump." This isn't the first time she's come to Barron's defense. "It's high time the media & everyone leave Barron Trump alone & let him have the private childhood he deserves," she tweeted in August of last year.
