Elon’s Son Humiliates Trump in Oval Office, Tells Trump: ‘I Want You to Shush Your F**king Mouth’ and ‘You’re Not the President’

This is incredible.

Elon Musk has become so ubiquitous a presence at the White House that now even his son X Æ A-Xii (who is nicknamed “X”) is coming to Oval Office pressers.

But today’s event, during which Musk spoke at length about plans for the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, was a little different. In fact, little X left a present for Donald Trump right on the Resolute Desk, the 145-year-old gift from Queen Victoria to then-president Rutherford B. Hayes.

In fact, a couple of presents.

As much as Trump and his dad have talked about mining for mineral resources, the little tyke must have picked up a little of the conversation. He did a little digging of his own in front of the cameras — for booger nuggets. He went middle knuckle deep for a hunk of nose gold and wiped it right on the president’s desk.

But the second present X left for Donald was perhaps the more treasured by the rest of the country: A shot of him, on video, whispering to the Commander-in-Chief, “I want you to shush your mouth.”

That caption says it all: X Musk is all of us. In fact, there’s not a single (legally appropriate) thing I’d rather do, given a meeting with Donald Trump, than tell him to shut up and wipe a booger on his desk.

There was plenty of speculation about what X said, with some commenters on social media even imagining him adding a curse word in the middle of the phrase there. But I feel like the video shows it pretty clearly.

This video, however, is just a little less clear in what the toddler says. The general consensus online is that X is saying “You’re not the president, you need to go away.” I’ll let you judge:

No matter what that little guy is saying, it’s hilarious. Trump looks utterly powerless, as people tend to be around kids in public. The kiddo was pleasant the rest of the time, even asking very politely to use the restroom.

And it gets better, little X tells Trump he’s not the president:

But what must have been going through Trump’s mind? He’s got five kids. I know he must have spent at least a little bit of time with them. He has to know that kids just repeat what they’ve heard.

And if little X Musk has been hearing “Shush your mouth” and “You’re not the president, go away” around the house, Trump has GOT to be wondering who was saying it to him. Was it his dad? Does Elon have his sights set even higher than head of a fake Cabinet Department?

Reactions from social media were pretty funny, too.

Whoops! I guess X didn’t leave the entire treasure chest on the desk. He may have consumed a few trunk doubloons as a horrified Trump looked on.

X’s mother, pop star Grimes, only found out that her boy was at the White House via a tweet response from a user on another topic. She was pleased that X had been a good boy:

Possibly the funniest part of the whole thing is that some were speculating that he was talking to his dad instead of Trump. This, despite the fact that he was facing Trump directly.

I can’t help but believe he’s talking right to Donald, though. He is seen in the full-length video standing very near to his dad, making faces and mugging for the camera. Then, when he wanted to say something, he moved over closer to Trump and said it straight in Trump’s direction.

If only we all got a chance like this.
