@Ghostalmedia Maybe one member of that disfunctional family has some morals?

[-] xmunk@sh.itjust.works 37 points 5 months ago

It's way too early to tell. He was brought up in wealth and chances are he's a shitty person purely due to that but hey - he's young and he hasn't had a public persona.

There's a chance that Melania has instilled in him a deep and neverending hatred of his father. It shouldn't have been too difficult. In an effort to rebel against everything his father represents, he might accidentally become a good person.

[-] frezik@midwest.social 18 points 5 months ago

Maybe. Melania isn't exactly a good role model, either. Hating Donald is the minimum bar for being a decent human being.

Have you ever seen a picture of Barron smiling?

[-] NABDad@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

Yeah, but if the hated turns into a complete rejection of everything he stands for, there's a chance.

[-] Num10ck@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

or maybe its scripted so Barron is the 'rebel' of this media boy band.

[-] willie1foot@theblower.au 12 points 5 months ago

@Num10ck maybe, but I suspect Melania’s in control of Barron, so Donald and his mob may not have much say.
