Barron Trump was denied bank account because of “Cancel Mob”: Melania

Former President Donald Trump's youngest son, Barron Trump, was denied a new bank account because of a political “cancel mob,” while his mother Melania claimed she had “serious concerns about civil rights violations.”

The former first lady said her son, now 18, was told he couldn't open the account at her preferred financial institution in the weeks after the Trumps left the White House in early 2021.

“I was shocked and dismayed to learn that my long-time bank had decided to close my account and deny my son the opportunity to open a new one,” Melania wrote in her new memoir, “Melania.”

“This decision appeared to be based on political discrimination and raised serious concerns about civil rights violations.”

Melania did not mention the name of the bank she was referring to.

But she said the “disturbing” snub was part of a “cancel culture poison” the family experienced after the Capitol riots on Jan. 6, which followed her husband's 2020 election defeat, she wrote.

The former first lady also claimed in her new book, released Tuesday, that the apparent cancel culture her family experienced began to escalate “uncontrollably” — even preventing her from doing charity work and closing business deals.

“The 'cancel mob' now includes corporations, traditional media, influential social media personalities and cultural institutions,” Melania wrote. “This discouraging trend reflects the current sociopolitical landscape in the United States.”

“The cancellation continues – a stance from companies large and small that continues to surprise me,” she continued.

“It is ironic that my business acumen is criticized while other former government officials are praised for similar efforts, such as multi-million dollar security media deals. This inequality can only be explained by prejudices related to my last name and my political affiliation.”

The revelation about her son's bank account came after the former first lady told Fox News on Tuesday that the 6-foot-1 teenager was doing “great” since starting at New York University this fall.

“He loves his classes and his professors,” Melania said. “He is doing well, doing well and enjoying being back in New York City.”

Donald and Melania's only son is expected to commute from Trump Tower in Midtown to attend classes in Greenwich Village.
