Videos of future first son Barron Trump speaking in a Slovenian accent as a young boy are spreading like wildfire on social media after his father’s massive electoral win earlier this month.
“I like my suitcase,” a 4-year-old Barron Trump said with an apparent Slovene accent in 2010 during a Larry King segment.
The video shows Barron Trump in his father’s office with both of his parents as he grabs a brown suitcase and asks his mom about going to school.
“I have to go to school now?” Barron Trump asks, again with an accent.
“You have lunch, and then you go to school,” Melania Trump responds.
“Now I’m gonna go?” Barron Trump asks again, speaking with the same accent as his mom.
“First you will have lunch, then you will go to school,” Melania tells her young son as he holds his brown briefcase.

Clips of the video have spread like wildfire across social media, most notably on TikTok, where users have filmed their own videos imitating Barron Trump, accompanied by the tag “sootcase,” as a play on how Barron Trump pronounced “suitcase.”
Social media users have reacted with shock over learning the eventual first son had a slight accent as a young boy, with many calling it “adorable,” “cute” and lauding Melania Trump for her close relationship with her young son. The videos had long floated on social media, but are only going viral after Donald Trump’s victory in the presidential election this month.
One user on TikTok said, “i can’t help but giggle every time i hear or see this video his Slovenian accent is so cuteness,” and another said, “he was adorable,” and another saying Melania Trump “seems like an amazingly sweet mom.”
Dozens of videos on TikTok have racked up hundreds of thousands of views each, and have even led to social media users creating song remixes of Barron Trump’s accent and social media commenters noting they never knew the first son had an accent as a young boy.
Melania Trump, who had a successful modeling career before she became first lady, was born in Novo Mesto, Yugoslavia – now Slovenia – and explained in the interview with Larry King in 2010 that her son has an accent because he spent the majority of time with his mom.
“He has an accent,” King noted in a live interview with Trump and his wife after footage of Barron speaking in an accent was aired.
“I think it’s great,” Donald Trump responded. “Anything he does is OK with me.”
“He speaks three languages, actually,” Melania Trump added.
“Smart one,” Donald Trump said.
In another clip, Donald Trump is seen telling his son to avoid drugs, alcohol and tattoos when he grows up.
“I want all As,” Donald Trump said in the clip. “And when you get older, no drugs. No alcohol. No cigarettes. And, you know what else? No tattoos. I don’t ever want to see tattoos on you.”

Footage of Barron Trump in 2009 is also going viral, showing the roughly 3-year-old boy with his mom attending a charity event where Entertainment Tonight held a short interview with the pair. Barron Trump declared his love of playing the drums while again pronouncing his words similar to his mom’s Slovene accent.
“I like to play drums,” he said, adding he wants drums “like on the television” for his birthday.
Barron Trump is now 18-years-old and attends New York University. The first son overwhelmingly stays out of the public spotlight when compared to his older siblings, such as Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, who frequently conduct media interviews and joined their father on the campaign trail.
Barron Trump, who notably stands at about 6-foot-9 and towers over his parents, was seen on stage when his father delivered his victory speech earlier this month after his massive victory over Vice President Kamala Harris. Trump wrapped up the election with 312 electoral votes to Harris’ 226, and won the popular vote.
“Every citizen, I will fight for you, for your family and your future. Every single day, I will be fighting for you. And with every breath in my body, I will not rest until we have delivered the strong, safe and prosperous America that our children deserve and that you deserve. This will truly be the golden age of America. That’s what we have to have. This is a magnificent victory for the American people that will allow us to make America great again,” Trump said in his victory speech, flanked by his family and other high-profile supporters such as tech billionaire Elon Musk and UFC CEO Dana White.
I love you Mr President for being such a wonderful father.
All of the Trump children are highly intelligent people and they have married highly intelligent spouses. Melania is a spectacular woman and is admired by many people from all over the globe. She has done an amazing job being a mom and working woman. I very much admire her and her dedication to our country speaking out about bringing our country together. Melania Trump will once again put radiance back in our White House!
I am expecting to watch a detailed video about this sweety pie creature called Barron Trump.
To be honest with you, to watch the Trump’s family life gives me the biggest pleasure.
Eric’s son in one of Trump rallies took the microphone into his hand and said: VOTE FOR GRANDPA. So did the public….. Barron started an independent campaign to bring the young voters aged between 18-30….. So voted great portion of the youngsters…. Kai’s speech at RNC is still fresh in our memories…..
Trump, Elon Musk, JD Vance and all of the rest of the fantastic fathers working in the political arena should introduce their young forces to the voters……
Those purely innocent beautiful angels will be our futures…..we need to get to know them…..
I personally feel so sorry for Hunter Biden and his sister who ended up with her diaries full of sad memories….
LET US PROTECT ALL OUR CHILDREN COMING FROM ALL WALKS OF LIFE , RACE, RELIGION AND CULTURE.
THEN ELON MUSK CAN TAKE US TO THE MARS…
The Trump family stacks up pretty well by all standards…
The most correct and most beautiful family in America is the Trump family!
