Barron Trump, the youngest son of former President Donald Trump, recently dipped his toe into the real estate pool, only to shimmy back just a few months later. Last year, he and a couple of pals set up shop in Wyoming under the impressive-sounding name Trump, Fulcher & Roxburgh Capital Inc. Unfortunately, the venture floundered and was officially dissolved in November, likely because the media was treating it like a shark tank full of politically motivated piranhas.
It seems Wyoming’s Secretary of State, Chuck Gray, is left scratching his head—perhaps while polishing his cowboy hat—hoping that Barron’s entrepreneurial spirit kicks back into gear. Gray believes Wyoming can wrestle away that title of “most business-friendly state” from Delaware. The good folks in Wyoming are enthusiastic about rolling out the welcome mat for anyone who enjoys America’s values as much as they do, and seeing Barron back in the game would be a feather in their cap.

The teenage Trump was definitely no slouch during his brief stint in business. While seeking to develop upscale properties in Idaho, Utah, and Arizona, it seems he had more ideas than a kid in a candy store. His partner mentioned that the elder Trump lent his son some advice but, let’s be real, he wasn’t writing checks. One can only speculate if the sudden flurry of media attention, coupled with potential conflict-of-interest allegations, made young Barron think twice about his entrepreneurial dreams.
Rolling into this new landscape is an eye-catching notion: making Wyoming the new liberal-free business paradise. Secretary Gray has firmly set his sights on weaning American companies off Delaware’s so-called woke policies. He envisions a robust, patriotic reinvention of the state filled with businesses that align with the common-sense values that resonate with the heartland. The man even tried to convince Elon Musk to ditch California for Wyoming, but alas, Texas snatched that trophy away. Still, Gray is resting his boots on the idea that Donald Trump’s brand will inject some seriously conservative juice into Wyoming’s economy.
As for Barron, sources suggest he might have inherited more than just a last name. He reportedly wants to follow in his father’s footsteps, eyeing the business world with the laser focus of a kid in a schoolyard ready to make a deal. But don’t confuse ambition with recklessness; it’s been noted that Melania Trump is ensuring he treads carefully, keeping that protective motherly glare fixed on her budding entrepreneur. With her vigilance, it seems Barron might just navigate the choppy waters of business with a little more finesse next time around, a result of parental guidance in a world full of potential pitfalls just waiting for a celebrity misstep.
