The internet went on overdrive on Tuesday with users blasting President Donald Trump’s eldest son for dragging his 14-year-old half brother Barron into the 2020 presidential campaign. Barron is the son of first lady Melania Trump from the president’s third marriage, while junior’s mother is Ivana, from the president’s first marriage.
Donald Trump Jr. fired off a tweet suggesting that Barron would beat Joe Biden in a debate — and it didn’t go well.
“In all fairness, Joe Biden is not capable of debating Barron Trump let alone Donald Trump,” Trump, Jr. tweeted.
Twitter users quickly responded by blasting Trump Jr. for bringing a minor into a presidential race.

Your dad couldn't string three words together in even vaguely cohesive communication today in the Rose Garden. Stop projecting.

It's hard to write this. I'm a life-long Republican who worked at RNC and for 2 GOP Presidents. But our country is in such deep trouble – with lives at stake – that it's time for a change. I'm joining @43Biden in voting for @JoeBiden. I hope other like-minded GOP will join me.
