Trump’s Annoyed That Son Barron is So Tall Because Trump Wants to be the ‘Tallest in the Room’

Imagine a man so insecure that he needs to wear lifts (or that is the theory), imagine all the other things we’ve heard about over the years, the insecurities that most grow out of at the age of four or five. No one is allowed to be “bigger” in his presence, no one is allowed to joke with him. He has to have his cokes served a certain way. Now try to imagine having those insecurities hammered because the son he barely knows is 3-4 inches taller than him. Yes, according to Michael Wolff, Donald Trump is jealous that his son is so much taller than him.

But Wolff wrote about the jealousy two years ago in his book Siege: Trump Under Fire. and the quotes come from his interview with Lawrence O’Donnell at a point and time when Barron was barely taller than him! Now, Barron, the son he hardly knows – according to Wolff, is shooting up above him.

Keep in mind, of all the writers that have come out with Trump books, Wolff is probably seen as the least trustworthy, But he had this to say to Lawrence O’Donnell two years ago:

“I think there are many issues. But this is a major issue because he really doesn’t — he doesn’t get along with his son, he doesn’t communicate with his son, he doesn’t — his son is effectively not at all a part of his life, even though he lives with him.”

“You also report the incredibly peculiar detail that Donald Trump is reportedly jealous of his son’s height because at 12 years old he’s apparentl growing up.”

He’s is now 14-15 at this point, and he’s at least 3-4 inches taller than Trump. They will probably never be pictured together again… were they before?

“He’s jealous of everyone’s height. He never lets himself be in a photograph with someone taller than he is. Height is his — is one of his techniques. He uses his height — and, remember, Donald Trump is a very large man.”

“You talk about a Trump White House where — by the time you get to this passage of Kellyanne Conway and her husband actually sharing a feeling of hatred for Donald Trump, you’ve revealed all sorts of people working in the White House who have hatred for Donald Trump, including Don McGahn, most importantly possibly because he could be the most damaging witness against Donald Trump eventually,” O’Donnell said.

Perhaps that’s why Trump is often seen sitting in pictures. Does anyone else sit with guests for pictures? We doubt it, perhaps he’s trying to avoid having to take pictures with taller people.

According to the interview, Trump never needed a reason to avoid Barron, they barely talk, not liking each other and that has to be related to something deeper with Melania. Or even his last two wives, since Tiffany also barely seems to exist. So, the kid that he likes the least will be doing the most to bother him with his height.

Fitting.
