Donald Trump told reporters on Sunday that while he plans on moving into the White House in January, his wife, Melania Trump, and youngest son, Barron Trump, will not join him right away.

Trump told reporters outside his golf resort in Bedminster, New Jersey, that his wife and son would join him “very soon” but after Barron Trump is “finished with school,” according to the President-elect pool report.

Earlier on Sunday, Trump spokesman Jason Miller said that Trump had not yet made official plans for Melania and Barron Trump moving, explaining that the Trumps “are concerned about pulling their 10-year-old son out of school in the middle of the year.”

  1. He’s saving the White House for his next wife.

  2. Wow, so who knew there would be personal consequences to winning. It’s almost as if he never thought he’d win…

  3. You are going to be the president of the united states. Pull your kid and put him in another school as a small token of understanding that the president must make “sacrifices” which this can hardly be labeled. Not to mention the millions of dollars in security that the taxpayer is left paying.

  4. Wow. Such parental concern. It’s as if millions of Americans don’t move their children during the school year due to job changes.

    I wonder if Melanoma doesn’t want to live in the fishbowl that is 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

    @progressivedem sacrifice is not in Dishonest Don’s vocabulary.

    What a wonderful opportunity for the Endorphin Ranger to try out a few bedrooms. Anyone who thinks that isn’t one of the inevitable consequences of this election is naive,at best.
