People are convinced they've spotted Donald Trump's 'seething' reaction to Elon Musk's son X Æ A-12's behaviour during their recent White House visit.
The Tesla boss' four-year-old son who he shares with Canadian singer Grimes, named X for short, stole the show at Tuesday’s press conference (11 February) with Trump.
Musk, 53, was at the White House to witness the 78-year-old Republican leader sign an executive order requiring federal agencies to cooperate with the Department of Government Efficiency’s efforts to cut costs after facing pushback last week.

While Musk, who has had 12 children with three different women, answered questions from the press, his son X seemed to be quite the distraction as he pulled a number of faces and interrupted his father.
One moment, however, has taken the internet by absolute storm.
At one point during the press conference, the toddler could be seen picking his nose and wiping his bogies on the Resolute Desk - something people rushed to social media to share their reactions to.
One X user penned: "Trump seethes as President Musk's kid eats his boogers then paws his desk."
"That’s hilarious!" chirped a second.
A third chimed in: "Elon's kid is feasting on his boogers in front of Trump."
"I'm watching Elon Musk's son pick his nose, eat boogers and wipe them on the Resolute desk. There's no way this kid is not annoying Trump," piped up a fourth.
A fifth exclaimed: "OMG! Elon’s son just wiped a booger on the desk of the President of the United States!"
"Elon’s kid wiping his boogers on the resolute desk is a sight I didn’t really need to see," echoed another.
And a final X user added: "Watching Elon’s dig for booger sugar and wipe it on Trump’s desk is peak entertainment. I love this administration."
Grimes, whose real name is Claire Boucher, has since hit back at Musk for taking their son X to the Oval Office.
She took to social media to issue a statement on the matter, writing: "He should not be in public like this. I did not see this, thank u for alerting me. But I'm glad he was polite. Sigh."
Musk and Grimes welcomed X to the world back in May 2020.
The couple dated for four years before eventually deciding to part ways for good two years after X's birth in 2022.
They also share two other children together; Techno Mechanicus, two, as well as daughter Exa Dark Sideræl, three.
