Barron Trump, the son of the president-elect, is using one strategy to make friends at New York University as sources claim he “hardly exists.”

The 18-year-old, who is following in the footsteps of his siblings Ivanka and Eric by studying at Stern Business School, is said to be struggling to connect with his peers and spends a lot of time off campus.

Since starting at NYU, reports have emerged about his experience, including his refusal of selfie requests from classmates and being constantly surrounded by Secret Service agents. “He hardly exists,” a student told TMZ.
