During Tuesday’s White House conference, Elon Musk’s four-year-old son, X Æ A-12, stole the spotlight.
Musk, 53, attended the event as President Trump signed an executive order aimed at cutting federal costs. However, X’s behavior became the focus, with online users claiming Trump appeared irritated.
Social media reactions suggested the child picked his nose and wiped it on the Resolute Desk, with one user joking, “Trump seethes as Musk’s kid eats his boogers.”
Some viewers speculated that X told Trump, “You’re not the president” or “I want you to shush.” A more extreme claim suggested he said, “Shut your f**king mouth.”
Grimes, X’s mother, criticized Musk for bringing their son, posting, “He should not be in public like this. I did not see this, thank u for alerting me.” The former couple, who dated for four years, share two other children—Techno Mechanicus, two, and Exa Dark Sideræl, three.
