Elon Musk’s son steals the show at White House press conference!

Elon Musk’s son, X Æ A-Xii, grabbed attention at the White House on Tuesday. While the billionaire was answering questions from the press alongside President Donald Trump, it was his four-year-old son who stole the show.

X mimics dad and causes a stir

As Musk responded to reporters, his son couldn’t resist making faces and hanging on to his dad. But the moment that caught everyone’s eye was when X picked his nose and wiped it on the iconic Resolute desk. The desk, a historic piece gifted to President Rutherford Hayes in 1880, has been used by nearly every president since.

Fans find X’s antics hilarious

Social media erupted with laughter at X’s behavior. “Only Elon Musk could make an Oval Office press conference feel like a family hangout,” one person tweeted, highlighting how the young boy casually disrupted the serious moment. Fans were amused by how X mimicked his dad during a discussion about democracy, which even caused Musk to pause.

Some were not amused

However, not everyone enjoyed X’s antics. One commenter was disgusted by the sight of X picking his nose and wiping it on the desk, saying, “There’s no way this kid isn’t annoying Trump.” Another remark noted that X looked bored, comparing him to Trump as they both appeared uninterested in Musk’s rambling.

Trump reacts positively to Musk’s son

Despite the distraction, President Trump didn’t seem bothered. In fact, he complimented X, calling him a “high IQ individual.” Musk, ever the professional, took most of the questions from the press, while his son continued to entertain.

During the conference, Musk was asked about critics accusing him of a “hostile takeover” of the government. Musk quickly shot back, saying, “The people voted for major government reform and that’s what they’re going to get.”

Musk reiterated his belief that the goal of Trump’s administration was to “restore democracy” by eliminating the so-called “unelected bureaucracy.”

Musk’s son continues to shine in the spotlight

This wasn’t the first time X Æ A-Xii joined his father at a major political event. Musk has previously brought X onstage at Trump’s inauguration and during live broadcasts on election night.

As Musk tackled tough questions from the press, his son provided a much-needed comic relief in the Oval Office. Fans and critics alike were glued to the scene, with X Æ A-Xii becoming an unlikely star.
