Barron Trump, the youngest child of former President Donald Trump, has been appointed as one of the 41 at-large delegates from Florida for the Republican National Convention. His role as a delegate marks his entry into a more public political sphere following his high school graduation. He will join his siblings Eric Trump, Donald Trump Jr., and Tiffany Trump in the Florida delegation.

Florida's delegation also includes a number of former President Trump's top supporters and allies. These include Kimberly Guilfoyle, Michael Boulos, former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi, and longtime Trump ally Sergio Gor, among others. Eric Trump will serve as the delegation chair, with Kimberly Guilfoyle participating on the Platform Committee.

The inclusion of the Trump family members in the Florida delegation underscores the state GOP's backing of Donald Trump's 2024 presidential campaign, even before the formal nomination. Florida GOP chairman Evan Power has expressed his anticipation for a successful convention in Milwaukee, where the party is expected to officially nominate Donald Trump as its presidential candidate for the November general election. The Republican National Convention is scheduled to take place from July 15 to 18.
