Billionaire Elon Musk’s four-year-old son Xæa-xii has once again attracted the internet attention after a photo of him walking with President Donald Trump on the White House lawn went viral.
Images shared on social media show some hilarious moments between the two heading towards the ocean on the south grass.
In the photo, Donald Trump, wearing a dark blue suit, a red tie and a long overcoat, can be seen walking alongside a small X wearing a dark coat and beige pants. The child appears to be fine and willing to skip the toy with one hand.
Musk re-shared one of his X (formerly Twitter) photos and said, “It’s a happy photo.”

There were also some sarcastic comments. Elon Musk suggested that he holds a dominant position, similar to his “babysitter,” that he has relegated President Trump to a lesser role.
Honestly, Elon appears to be very in charge, so he made Trump a babysitter.

Sharing similar sentiments, the user commented: What a suitable rationale for the current political situation. ”
The US President has been relegated to a glorious babysitter serving the wealthiest man on the planet.
What a suitable rationale for the current political situation.

This interaction between X and Donald Trump comes weeks after X’s mother, Canadian musician and record producer Grimes, criticized former partner Elon Musk for taking his son to an oval office.
Grimes, who had an on-off relationship with Elon Musk since 2018, reportedly was discovered through social media that Tesla CEO took Xæa-xii to a briefing with Donald Trump. In response to comments on social media that praised children’s politeness, she criticized Elon Musk’s decision, claiming that X should not be in this public eye.
