A rumored Barron Trump article defending Elon Musk on social media went viral, but the source of the article is a scam and has no connection to the then-president’s son.
The post, which was widely shared on X ( previously Twitter ), appeared to praise Musk’s leadership of the controversial task force aimed at reducing government spending. The richest man in the world was quoted as saying,” The richest man in the world is working for free to stop your government from robbing you blind.” Instead of complaining, why don’t you lay down, opened up, and say thank you”.
Pictures of the blog quickly spread across social media, with people reacting strongly—some enabling Barron’s supposed position, while others mocked him, posting comments like” Don’t remind us what to do, Barron”!

However, a closer look reveals that the post was never made by Barron Trump. Instead, it originated from an X account named” Barron Trump News” with the handle “@TrumpBarronNews”. The account clearly states that it is not associated with him in its bio.
Barron Trump’s representative declined to comment on the viral post, adding to the confusion because he has no proof of where he is on X.
Despite being proven false, the fake post continues to be circulated, provoking debate about the importance of prominent individuals in shaping public opinion.
