If you don’t know who he is, Adin Ross is a popular streamer with Gen Z.
During the stream, Adin Ross surprised Trump with a few gifts, including a Rolex watch and a custom Cybertruck featuring the iconic image of Trump raising his fist in defiance after almost being assassinated.
President Trump’s reaction to the Cybertuck was gold.

Donald Trump credits his son, Barron, with getting him to do the livestream, which had over 500K viewers.
USA Today writes:
Donald Trump has been polling strongly among younger voters, and on Monday, he credited his 18-year-old son Barron Trump for his appearance on a streaming show popular with a segment of the Gen Z crowd: conservative males.
The White House aspirant can also now thank his son for the brand new gold Rolex and the Tesla Cybertruck he was gifted by the show’s host, Adin Ross.
The gifting of the Cybertruck was curious given that Trump has been hostile to electric vehicles on the campaign trail. The former president has ridiculed the environmentally courteous vehicles, saying they have very limited range making them impractical. Tesla’s website said the Cybertruck has a range of 340 miles.
At the start of the interview, as reported by Business Insider, Trump told Ross that his son “says hello” and that “he’s a big fan of yours.” Barron Trump reportedly gushed to his father about Ross: “Dad, he’s really big.”
Insiders said Trump’s chat with the 23-year-old Ross, who is followed by a largely male and conservative audience, lasted over an hour and drew between 400,000 to 580,000 viewers. The host guided the 78-year-old former president through the intricacies of livestreaming and Gen Z vernacular, including that viewers typing “W,” for wins, was a positive sign.
The appearance comes as Trump, according to polls, continues to fare well among the youngest voters in the country.
A poll released July 30, 2024, by Florida Atlantic University and Mainstreet Research showed Trump with a 45% to 36% lead over Vice President Kamala Harris among voters between the ages of 18 and 35. Overall the two were in a “statistical tie,” FAU and Mainstreet said, with each candidate polling 46% support from the survey’s respondents.
No word on whether Donald Trump will gift Barron Trump, the youngest of his five children and only child with Melania Trump, the Rolex watch and Tesla Cybertruck.
