Former President Donald Trump often gets criticized for his antics. He is certainly a polarizing public figure, taunting opponents. However, Trump is not a bad father.
Piers Morgan in NY Post says, “I’ve been around him many times when he was with his five children — Don Jr., Ivanka, Eric, Tiffany and Barron — and he’s a proud, loving dad, and that feeling is reciprocated by each of them.”
Both Barron and Trump’s youngest son, now 18, must have felt bad when the judge in Trump’s criminal trial suggested that he could be jailed if he tries to skip a day in court, even if it’s to be at Barron’s graduation from Oxbridge Academy in Palm Beach on May 17.
Barron, who’s had to grow up in the eye of the storm of his controversial father’s political and presidential career surely deserves to have his father on his big day. Piers Morgan feels, “It must have been so hard for him to be the son of the world’s most talked-about and divisive figure of the 21st century.”
Justice Juan Merchan, who is overseeing the trial warned Trump that if tries to skip any days in his court, he may be tossed into a prison cell. Merchan hasn’t yet rejected Trump’s request to go to the graduation, but he did say that “it really depends on how we’re doing on time and where we are in the trial.”
As Trump said outside court: “It looks like the judge will not let me go to the graduation of my son who’s worked very, very hard and he is a great student and very proud of the fact he did so well and has been looking forward for years to graduation with his mother and father there.”
