The “Art of the Surge” snippet drew a stream of comments from people claiming they have never heard Barron speak before.
“First time I’ve ever heard Barron talk,” read one comment on the video.
“Barron has his Dad’s speech cadence!” an X user said of the New York University student’s voice.
“Sounds like Timothée Chalamet,” another person said, likening Barron’s voice to the Hollywood actor’s.
“Barron is such a gentleman,” one person said of the teenager’s interactions with Trump’s guests on election night.
Trump has said Barron was extremely influential in getting him to do interviews on alternative media during his campaign, such as Joe Rogan’s popular podcast.
Trump’s appearances on “The Joe Rogan Experience,” “This Past Weekend with Theo Von,” “Flagrant” with comic Andrew Schulz, the “PBD Podcast” with businessman Patrick Bet-David and other podcasts have drawn tens of millions of views and streams online.
Vice President Kamala Harris largely avoided doing interviews during her campaign until embarking on a media blitz — with mostly friendly outlets — in the final weeks before Election Day.
