Donald Trump labeled 'lousy dad' after he says Melania 'has a son'

[left-of-center2012]

President Donald Trump seemed to forget for a moment on Wednesday that Barron Trump was his son.

During an Oval Office gaggle with the press, Trump was asked about the crackdown on vaping after the government announced that deaths had been linked to the practice. The president said that he viewed vaping as a source of American jobs before mentioning First Lady Melania Trump, who was sitting beside him.

“That’s how the First Lady got involved,” Trump explained. “She’s got a son — together — that is a beautiful young man and she feels very, very strongly about it.”

The internet quickly erupted by mocking the president’s parenting skills.

“Trump obviously has no relationship with his youngest son. When is the last time Trump helped Barron with his homework? Or had a catch with him? Or took him fishing? Or had a putting contest with him on one of his courses? Or took him for a hike? Like never is my guess……”

1. lol, what isn't he lousy at?*

[LyndaG]

2. Poor kid

Wasn't "John Barron" Trump's imaginary friend?

[Harker]

13. I always figured the lad was named for the magazine

Barron's, though I'm not sure.

[Duppers]

16. Yep, tRump's alias.

[tanyev]

3. LOL, I'm sure Barron doesn't want Donnie to help him with his homework.

Trump doesn’t hike, fish, or play catch. And the only way Barron would ever get to have a putting contest with him is if he understands Donnie ALWAYS has to win.

4. I hope Barron

and Tiffany are friendly. She could be of some support.

Really, this just stinks. I feel very sorry for this child. Young man? I forget how old he is but he could be 30 and still be stung by this.

[JenniferJuniper]

7. He's only 13

And long after the old man is dead, he'll be stuck with the name.

[Harker]

14. He could change it to Edmund Dorf. n/t

[JenniferJuniper]

17. Alas, it will not fool anyone

poor child could live another 80 years and people will still point and stare.

The only good thing is that Trump won't live long enough to pull him directly into the "family business".

5. So, did Trump tell us something accidentally?

Did he just admit he’s not the father?

[randr]

11. It will take DNA profiles

to prove if any people he calls children are his. I'm guessing it's a long shot if he has any children

[malaise]

6. Well I would not want him to help that boy with his homework

[lastlib]

15. Imagine the history grade the poor kid would get....

...if AnusMouth helped him....

Barron: "Our Revolution was won when George Washington captured the airport at Valley Forge, despite his forces being massacred at Bowling Green...."

[RhodeIslandOne]

8. That kid needs help

Something is wrong, seriously, with him and Trump clearly has no feeling for him.

[lettucebe]

9. If Trump isn't involved that's a lucky break for Barron

poor rich kid!

[gulliver]

10. This one feels like a stretch.

He seems to have been talking about Melania's motivations. He's saying Melania's thinking "she's got a son." Trump commits so many obvious fouls that this just looks like one more, but I'd go "no call" on this one.

[zaj]

12. This is the left being stupid.

And (damnit, don't make me say it!) unfair to Trump.

He's crazy, me, hateful, selfish, narcissist and probably a horrible father. But that is totally unrelated to his remarks.

That's is? She cares because she has a son.

He didn't forget he has one. He was just framing the discussion around her.

Damn you people, don't make me defend Trump again! We have real crazy stuff to mock.
