Melania Trump has always loved New York City. After all, she’s a girl from Slovenia who wanted to be a model and ended up in the greatest city in the world for models…NYC. And, she lived there the majority of her life, having moved there in her mid-20’s.
In fact, when her revolting husband won the presidency, she took her sweet ass time moving to Washington, DC. There were rumors she was waiting for a better prenup, and that she was waiting for Barron to finish school. But she also loved NYC.
But now we have learned that Barron is starting school, and it won’t be on the tony Upper East Side. It will be in Florida. Home of retirees, alligators and the type of people who voted Ron DeSantis into office.
So it looks like Melania has finally realized that NYC just doesn’t want her, so South Florida it shall be.
For those of us – and there are many – who have always fantasized about Barron growing up as a never-Trumper, he is going to have to face a fairly high hurdle. Barron will be attending a school, next year, started by the Koch brothers and comes with a price the Koch brothers would find “fair.” According to People Magazine:
Oxbridge Academy, located in Palm Beach County, was founded in 2011 by billionaire William Koch, brother to Republican mega-donors Charles and David Koch and a previous fundraiser of Trump’s campaigns.
According to its website, tuition to attend Oxbridge’s high school in the 2021-2022 school year is $34,800.
Well, it’s only the best for Melania and always has been, apparently, this applies to Barron, too. Still, People Magazine is taking this a little further than we might go with it:
The announcement signals that former First Lady Melania Trump will spend the school year in south Florida, where she, Barron and her husband have been living at their members-only Mar-a-Lago Club.
Looking at it more closely, now, perhaps we could agree with that statement, it signals that they will be living in South Florida, where they “have been” living with Donald Trump – saying nothing about the future living plans with Trump. It sure seems to us that a divorce cannot possibly be that far off into the future, it is not like he can take away the Stormy thing, the Hollywood Access Tape thing…
We cannot even be sure that Barron feels all that much for dear old sperm donor. There has been nothing to indicate that Trump actually gives a shit about Barron. Maybe, just maybe, despite the fact that Barron will attend “Conservative Education HQ” he could become a never-Trumper anyway. After all:
A source previously told PEOPLE that Mrs. Trump tried to stay in or around the same city as her husband while still maintaining her own schedule, though she did occasionally travel alone around the U.S. and internationally.
Donald is fine with that as long as she is satisfied, leaves him alone, and makes appearances when needed,” the political source said. “Melania is happiest when she is with her own family members, including her son. She is not dumb, she just knows how to handle her life to make it as fulfilling for her as possible.”
“She is not dumb,” and making life as fulfilling as possible seems to involve staying away from Trump. Maybe Barron will learn something from mom.
We wish good luck to Barron at his new school. Although from the sounds of it, he probably won’t need it. Sounds like it is Melania who will need the luck, as she prepares for the humidity of South Florida, while missing her beloved NYC.
