Donald Trump says his wife Melania will be ‘active’ in his campaign and revealed the height of 17-year-old son Barron.
The former president, 77, said he relies on his first lady for advice and praised her compassion in a Fox News interview as voters arrived at the polls Tuesday morning for the New Hampshire primary.
“She also wants to make America great again,” he said of Melania.
“I rely on her for advice and everyone else. I think she will be very active in the sense of being active.”
Trump also admitted he was concerned about his family, who have been the target of “unfair” attacks since he entered the White House and began his run for president.
“They have each done a tremendous job in economic development and employment,” he said of his family.
He then talked about Barron and revealed that he is 6 feet tall. The teenager attended the funeral of his grandmother Amalija Knavs last week with his father.

“He’s a good kid, smart, a good athlete, a really good kid,” Trump said.
During his victory speech before the Iowa caucus, Trump also revealed that Barron prefers football to basketball and that he is so tall because he ate all of his late grandmother’s food.
Trump enters the New Hampshire primary with a 20-point lead over Nikki Haley, the last rival remaining in the race.
He is on track to repeat his landslide victory in Iowa and win the Republican nomination for president.
Trump has orchestrated a show of force since Ron DeSantis quit on Sunday, creating a huge wave of support and endorsements.
At rallies, he has brought former rivals, including Vivek Ramaswamy and Tim Scott, onto the stage in what one top campaign aide described as “Avengers Assemble.”
He now enters the Republican fray with a chance to repeat his landslide victory in the Iowa caucus, defeat his last opponent Haley and clinch the nomination.
Now that Republican candidates have suspended their campaigns, the Republican Party has lined up and anointed Trump as the only candidate who can defeat Biden in 2024.
The latest poll from DailyMail.com/JL Partners shows Trump with 57 percent support to Haley’s 37.

On the final day of the survey of 851 people, Trump had a 40-point lead over Haley among respondents asked by JL Partners.
Even if she sees a surge of support from unreported New Hampshire residents, she may still struggle to close the gap.
“DeSantis’ departure from the race has given Donald Trump rocket fuel,” James Johnson, co-founder of JL Partners, told DailyMail.com.

“He opened up an exceptional 40-point lead over Nikki Haley on our last day of fieldwork – all after DeSantis’ fall.
“This means that our latest poll, which takes into account all days of fieldwork, gives Trump a 20-point lead.
Add to that the fact that Haley voters lack enthusiasm, and Trump appears poised for a landslide victory. The smell of inevitability now surrounds Donald Trump. If this poll is correct, the primary ends tonight.”
