Chelsea Clinton, daughter of former president Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton, is a known critic of President Donald Trump. But one thing that the former first daughter can’t stand is people attacking the POTUS’s teenage son, Barron Trump.
After all, Chelsea Clinton knows what’s it is like being a president’s child. She was only 12 years old when her father Bill Clinton became President in 1993. Just like Barron Trump, she too became the subject of attacks from political commentators.
She does not want any child of a President to experience what she went through. “I do take it personally when people attack Sasha and Malia Obama, and even Barron Trump,” Chelsea Clinton said on “The Graham Norton Show” last year, according to Express.
“I mean, Barron was 11 when his father was elected, so just a year younger than I was when my father was elected,” Clinton said. “I was 11 when he announced, 12 when he won.”
While she is Donald Trump’s critic, Chelsea would fight for Barron’s right to privacy. “I mean, I disagree with President Trump on everything, but I would stand on the barricade to defend his son’s right to privacy and his son’s right to have the childhood that I think every kid deserves, whatever their address,” she added.
For her, it’s never okay to attack Donald Trump through his son. “And I just find it abhorrent that people who are arguably on the same side of the political spectrum as I am think it’s OK to make whatever point they’re trying to make about his father through making fun of his kid,” Chelsea Clinton said.
When her father became President, Chelsea Clinton was mocked for her appearance and perceived awkwardness. She recalled her schoolmates would tease her due to what they heard from mainstream media.
“It was a bit disorientating because it was sort of everyone,” Clinton said. “And yet, thankfully, I knew it was totally bonkers that these adults were making fun of a kid. Like, why did anyone think it was OK to make fun of an 11-year-old or a 12-year-old?”
Her twelve-year-old self couldn’t understand what was happening. “And it hurt me a lot, but it also bewildered me – I couldn’t understand it,” Clinton admitted.
