Melania And Barron Trump To Move To White House After End Of School Year, President-Elect Says
BEDMINSTER, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) -- President-elect Donald Trump said Sunday that his wife, Melania, and their son, Barron, will move to the White House "right after he finishes school" next year.
An aide to the president-elect had suggested earlier that the Trumps were reluctant to move their 10-year-old son from Trump Tower in New York to Washington during the school year. Spokesman Jason Miller had said that there was ``obviously a sensitivity'' about pulling Barron out of school to go to Washington.
Trump will be inaugurated as the nation's 45th president on Jan. 20. Most American schools finish the school year in the late spring or early summer.
Trump made the remark Sunday at his golf course in Bedminster, New Jersey as he was escorting Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach from a meeting.
It was only one of a string of sessions Trump has been having with prospects for posts in his administration.
A New York Post report had earlier said Melania and Barron Trump would not be moving to Washington after the inauguration.
