A rare clip of Donald Trump’s youngest son has emerged showing him speaking when he was just four years old.

After staying out of the spotlight for most of his life, Barron Trump, 18, has emerged as an online sensation over the past few months.

Melania replies, “Yes, first you will have lunch and then you’ll go to school.

“You can do reading, writing, and arithmetic,” Mr Trump then chimes in.

The clip was quick to go viral, with the video being viewed nearly 10 million times (as at Friday noon AEDT).

One shocked user said: “Does Barron speak with a Slovenian accent even though he was born and raised in New York because of Melania? That’s pretty funny.”

Another said: “That’s so adorable. He sounds like his mum. You can tell she was a very involved mother.”

While another agreed: “She had all the money in the world to pass him off to a nanny, but she spent so much time with him that he sounded like her instead of anyone else in his life.”

Barron’s appearance on stage following Mr Trump’s election win earlier this month sent social media into overdrive, mostly about his impressive stature.

The teen, who stands at over 2 metres tall, was credited with playing a key role in getting the US President-elect back into the White House.

He encouraged his father to appear on The Joe Rogan Experience and Logan Paul’s “Impaulsive”, whose key demographic was crucial to Mr Trump’s election success.

MELANIA UNVEILS WHITE HOUSE PLANS

It comes after it was revealed Melania plans to split her time between New York, Florida and DC during Donald Trump’s second term in office “so she can be the hands-on mother to Barron that she is”.

“Melania will be the first lady, but only on her terms,” a Mar-a-Lago insider told The Post.

“She’ll do the big events. But no ladies’ tea and no — or very few — interviews.”

“She views winning as the main show, and the rest she’ll do as she pleases. She’s really in the driver’s seat as to her duties at the White House,” the source continued.

“Melania will be a part time first lady — while being a full-time mother and wife.”

The Trumps live at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, however, they still maintain their residence at Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, where 18-year-old Barron. He is currently studying in his first year at New York University.

“I could not say I’m an empty nester. I don’t feel that way,” Melania told Fox News in September.

“It was his decision to come here, that he wants to be in New York, study in New York, and live in his home and I respect that.

“He’s enjoying his college days. I hope he will have a great experience because his life is very different than any other 18-, 19-year-old child,” she added.

It comes as Donald Trump won total control in Washington DC on the day he returned to the Oval Office, and immediately put his power to the test with controversial appointments to his new administration.

Mr Trump tapped Florida senator Marco Rubio to be his Secretary of State, ex-Democrat Tulsi Gabbard to be his Director of National Intelligence and Dan Scavino to be his deputy chief of staff.
