This isn’t the first time an interaction between Trump and Musk’s son has captured attention. Last month, during a visit to the White House, X stole the spotlight in the Oval Office, where Trump introduced him as "a great guy—a high IQ individual."

A viral video from that appearance showed X engaging in playful antics, including picking his nose and wiping it on the desk, which caused a stir online.
