In a presidential contest in which no demographic can be left behind, the Trump campaign has a unique resource to reach America’s youngest voters, according to a new report.
Far away from his father’s world of raucous rallies, Barron Trump is trying to build a social media campaign aimed at voters former President Donald Trump needs to reach in order to defeat Vice President Kamala Harris, according to the U.K.’s Daily Mail.
Bo Loudon, 17, an influencer and close friend of Barron Trump, is partnering with Barron to use their understanding of the social media landscape to connect with young voters.
The pair helped connect the former president with Kick influencer Adin Ross for a livestreamed interview that, according to The New York Times, had about 500,000 users watching.
The interview gave Trump “access to the millions of young, mostly male and right-leaning potential voters who follow Mr. Ross on social media,” the Times reported.
Trump himself sees Barron’s and Loudon’s “input as an asset,” the Daily Mail quoted what it said was an “insider” as saying.

“He has no issues turning to them for advice on a subject that many of his middle-aged campaign aides wouldn’t have much of a clue about,” the insider said.

One of them is too young to vote and the other only graduated high school just a couple of months ago.
But Donald Trump has a secret weapon in his bid to reach Gen Z voters – his youngest son Barron, 18, and the teen's influencer best friend Bo Loudon, 17.
The tech-savvy teens are busily briefing the 78-year-old former President behind the scenes on the new landscape of streamers and YouTube stars with millions of followers.
They are now acting as a de-facto social media outreach team, according to DailyMail.com sources, wooing online stars who older aides might have never heard of to the Trump cause.
It was Barron and Bo who lined up his 90-minute interview last week with Kick influencer Adin Ross which was watched live by 500,000 people – or 100 million total listeners if you believe the figures promoted on Trump's Truth Social account.
The duo have also pressed the Republican nominee to forge close links with their favorite content creators, from YouTuber turned boxer Jake Paul to billionaire business mogul Patrick Bet-David, host of the PBD podcast.
'Trump rates the boys and sees their input as an asset,' an insider told DailyMail.com.
'He has no issues turning to them for advice on a subject that many of his middle-aged campaign aides wouldn't have much of a clue about.'
Bo, an up-and-coming conservative influencer, is the son of TV personality Dr. Gina Loudon and her husband John William Loudon, a former Missouri GOP state senator.
The Loudons live in South Florida and are well-connected members of Mar-a-Lago, Trump's Palm Beach residence, where sources say Bo and Barron often slip away to have fun while the adults enjoy swish functions.
The 'inseparable' pals hang at the beach and private pool but are said to eschew typical teen pursuits like sports and concerts in favor of weighty debates on business and politics.
They are not immune to the sort of scrapes you might expect with boys their age, however, with a friend revealing to DailyMail.com that Bo once sparked a full-blown 911 emergency at Mar-a-Lago when he slipped and badly broke his arm.
The pair had just gone for a swim when the teenager tried to hop over a wall with wet feet and tumbled painfully onto a patch of concrete as Barron and his Secret Service entourage looked on in shock.
'It's funny to look back on but it was a very serious thing,' the friend added. 'An ambulance was called and he was taken to the hospital. He had to have surgery.' --->READ MORE HERE
