If you stayed up into the early hours of the morning on election day you might recall the moment President-elect Donald Trump took to the stage at his campaign’s HQ in West Palm Beach, Florida, stating he had ‘made history’ after being projected to win the battleground states of North Carolina, Georgia, and Pennsylvania.

He was joined by his entourage, including his 18-year-old son Barron and UFC’s Dana White, as well as a documentary crew which followed Trump during his presidential campaign.
Well, a clip from the documentary series Art of Surge has gone viral and it reveals the former 45th President’s youngest son’s accent…if you don’t recall the video of him from years ago talking with an eastern European accent, then it won’t be so shocking for you.
But I’ll detail the little history we know of Barron Trump’s speech.
You may remember a clip that has done the rounds in recent weeks of Barron as a four-year-old speaking with a Slovenian accent, taking after his mom, Melenia Trump.

He asks his mom: “I have to go to school now?”
Melania replies: “Yes, first you will have lunch and then you’ll go to school.”
Taking to social media, people applauded Melania for her hands-on approach to parenting. One user wrote: “Did Barron speak with a Slovenian accent even though he was born and raised in New York because of Melania? That’s pretty funny.”
While a second typed: “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.”
Now, footage has revealed that he has shaken that eastern European accent off and now sounds like your everyday American – okay, maybe your everyday American born into billions.
Speaking to a woman off-shot, he says: “Hello, how are you? It’s very nice to see you.”
In the footage, Trump speaks fondly of his son to White explaining how his supporters love him.
Trump can be heard saying: “I gave him a shout-out last night, the place went crazy: Bar-ron, Bar-ron.”
Barron then greets White: “Hello. How are you? It’s very nice to finally meet you.”
Trump can then be heard joking: “Can you make him into a fighter.”
Taking to Twitter, fans were surprised by how he sounded.
One user wrote: “Internet about to blow up over this one.”
Another added: “This might be the first time we have EVER heard Barron speak. Historic clip!!!”
While a third penned: “Damn he sounds like trump.”
