Barron Trump has been hailed as 'a true gentleman' for shaking hands with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris at his father's inauguration.
Donald Trump was sworn in as the 47th President of the United States in the Capitol Rotunda.
He took his oath of office on a historic and sentimental pair of Bibles. One of the Bibles is the Lincoln Bible, the same Bible that the Civil War president placed his hand on when he took the oath of office in 1861.
The other Bible was a family heirloom passed down to President Trump by his mother.
The president's 18-year-old son gave the outgoing president and the deputy anchor firm handshakes after the swearing-in ceremony.
The gesture of peace has led fans to praise the New York University freshman as “a gentleman” and “well-behaved.”
'[Melania] I've never seen a more stylish 18 year old,” one person said.
'Smart young man. Knows her way around the room,” a second person said. “He is very impressive and clearly well raised,” said a third.

'I was very impressed by that gesture and by such a young person. It was very classy and mature to walk down the aisle and shake their hands. Good for Barron,” said another.
“One day I hope this honorable young man becomes president too,” a fifth person added.
Many people praised Melania for raising him well and for knowing how to treat others with respect.
“His mother taught him well,” said one. 'Such a stylish, well-behaved young man. As a mother I am moved. God bless him,” said another.
'What a good young man… That gesture just tells you everything. Well done Melania,” said a third.
Barron showed off a sleek new hairstyle as he attended his father's historic second inauguration on Monday.
The 18-year-old looked dapper in a long black overcoat, white shirt and purple tie as he attended a church ceremony at St John's Episcopal Church across from the White House on Monday morning.
The NYU-Stern student, who towers over his father and mother Melania at 6-foot-1, kept his expression neutral as he walked into the church and sat down in a pew next to his parents.
Barron's hairstyle was similar to the one usually sported by his older half-brother Donald Trump Jr., 47.
After being sworn in at a ceremony surrounded by tech titans and media moguls, Trump promised a “new golden age of America.”
“The decline is over,” he told about 600 allies, dignitaries and family members at the U.S. Capitol.
He used his inaugural address to balance the idea of an optimistic new dawn with his long-standing accusations that he was the target of a weaponized justice system and to promise a sweeping crackdown on illegal immigration.
As arctic temperatures pushed Washington, DC, outside, Trump was surrounded by Washington's political establishment, tech titans and MAGA allies for his inauguration at the Capitol.
It provided a visual illustration of how the former political outsider has conquered Washington in an extraordinary political comeback, becoming only the second president in history to win non-consecutive terms.
