When Donald Trump ran for president in 2024 ahead of what would be his second term in the White House, a surprise advocate for him came in the form of his youngest child, Barron Trump. According to multiple outlets, including ABC News, Barron was instrumental in getting his dad to reach a younger male audience through podcast appearances.
Now, Radar has reported that Barron still has ties to some of the male role model influencers that he seemingly hoped would connect with his dad and vice versa on the campaign trail. Per the outlet, Barron has worked with “manosphere” influencer Justin Waller. The New Yorker reported that Barron formed a close bond with the influencer who also appeared in the eye opening Netflix documentary Louis Theroux: Inside the Manosphere.
The influencer helped Barron Trump with his style and love life.

According to Radar, Barron and Justin got close in the months leading up to the 2024 election. Justin even dined with Barron at Mar-a-Lago, Trump’s Florida resort that has remained a big part of the president’s life and social life in his second term in the White House. But not only did Barron seek out male influencers and podcast hosts to help gas up Trump during the election, but Justin was apparently instrumental in helping Barron.
Radar reported that Justin helped Barron with his image, both physical and otherwise. He even recommended the tailor who Barron turned to for the suit he wore to Trump’s second inauguration in January 2025. When Justin appeared in the Manosphere documentary, he called himself the third Tate brother in relation to Andrew and his brother, Tristan Tate.
As Barron”s dating coach of sorts, it’s not clear what sort of wisdom Justin imparted on him. But apparently, Barron would rather go to an influencer than his older brothers, Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. From the outside looking in, Justin is giving The Pickup Artist vibes, circa 2007, though.
Barron Trump is reportedly an Andrew Tate fan.
The Tate brothers were charged with numerous serious crimes, including human trafficking and rape, according to NPR. But Barron allegedly showed interest in what Andrew had to say. So much so that, according to The New York Times, Andrew even bragged about meeting with Barron multiple times.
Justin told the outlet that Barron spoke to Andrew in 2024 during a Zoom call. Tate is one of the more polarizing names in the manosphere world. It makes sense for his name to come up when it comes to Barron’s interest in some male figures in influencing. Maybe there was a time when Barron stood a chance of turning out differently than the way people see Trump. But not anymore.
Someone wrote on Reddit, of Barron, “Just like his dad, the same misogynistic behavior, thinks he can treat people, especially women, like his own personal property. I simply detest people who behave in this manner and to be associated with the Andrew Tate’s of the world is utterly loathsome, doesn’t make you an alpha male, anyone who willingly associates with a bottom feeder like Andrew Tate is no better than what he represents which is everything thing that’s wrong about us as a species.”
He helped Trump reach a younger male audience during his 2024 campaign.
Barron did help Trump during his 2024 campaign, even if it was more behind the scenes. The NYU student was reportedly instrumental in making sure Trump was heard and seen by a younger generation. But that also means that people continue to link Barronm to polarizing figures like the Tate brothers.
