Barron, to his parents dislike, has been smoking cigarettes. Trying to dissuade his son from smoking, father Donald Trump asked Barron if he would smoke less if the price of cigarettes were to increase. To this question Barron told his father, "yes". In the meantime, equally distraught mother Melania asked her son if he would smoke less if his allowance was reduced. To this question, Barron answered, "no, that would make me smoke more". That night, Donald (excitedly) told his wife Melania that he was going to raise the real price of cigarettes through a federal cigarette tax because Barron had told him that if the price of cigarettes went up, he would smoke less. However, Donald's excitement soon turned to concern when Melania told her husband of Barron's stated response to a cut in allowance. "Not only is Barron smoking, but now he's lying too!", Melania IS BARRON LYING TO HIS PARENTS?
