Barron Trump has trended online after the US began its attack on Iran. Now, a website urges President Trump to send his youngest son to the region.
A website has gone viral online after it urged President Donald Trump to send his youngest son, Barron Trump, to war following recent strikes linked to the conflict with Iran.
While the page is not real political campaigning but satirical, it quickly caught attention and led to strong reactions across social media.
The website, called DraftBarronTrump.com, was created by former South Park writer Toby Morton after U.S. and Israeli airstrikes targeted Iran over the weekend.
“America is strong because its leaders are strong. President Trump proves that every day,” the website reads. “Naturally, his son Barron is more than ready to defend the country his father so boldly commands. Service is honor. Strength is inherited. Dog Bless Barron.”
Satirical website urges Trump to send Barron to war
The site’s “About Us” section features a declaration that reads, “When power is projected abroad, it is only right that strength exists at home.”
“If you’re looking for proven genes, inherited courage, and unquestionable resolve, look no further than the Trump family. Leadership starts somewhere,” it continued.
Moreover, the website includes a mock testimonial from Donald Trump.
“People come up to me, with tears in their eyes, and they say, ‘Sir, you’re the strongest. Send Barron off to war,’” it says. “I’ve always been strong. Very strong. Stronger than anyone expected. Some say the strongest ever. And strength matters. Believe me.”
The website is satirical, but still, many Americans have chosen to use Barron in order to show their anger with the Iran war.
Barron hashtag trends as the U.S. strikes Iran
Over the weekend, as the war in Iran began, the hashtag #SendBarron trended.
One user wrote: “Why not demonstrate that Trump family spirit of patriotism and sacrifice by sending Barron to fight Iran?”
“At least someone from the Trump family should demonstrate how patriotic they are by serving instead of grifting,” a second added.
Another post read: “#SendBarron. Would certainly send a message of solidarity with our troops, and gratitude for the sacrifices they make every day.”
One user stated: “If you vote for leaders who love war, maybe you or your children should at least be first in line to explain why it’s worth it.”
Some even criticized Trump’s involvement in escalating the war while remaining safe. One person commented, “POTUS is chilling at his own country club while starting WWIII #SendBarron.”
