Yesterday was Trump’s official inauguration ceremony where he became the 47th U.S. President after he won the battle for presidency in November 2024.
While Trump himself made many bold announcements of various questionable intentions, the president wasn’t the only one to make headlines during and after the ceremony. His youngest, Barron Trump went viral online for a mysterious exchange with Former President Joe Biden.
The president made multiple promises
The inauguration on 20 January saw Trump make a lot of bold promises, a couple of which were sending the U.S. to Mars and renaming the Gulf of Mexico.
However, this wasn’t the only thing to make headlines after yesterday.
Elon Musk also caused an uproar
The president’s friend and owner of Tesla, SpaceX and the social media app X (formerly known as Twitter), Elon Musk, also caused a ruckus with a specifically alarming hand gesture that he made in reaction to the news about colonizing Mars.
Barron Trump was also featured in conversation
The president’s youngest son, Barron Trump, was also a feature of the online conversation during the inauguration, with many being surprised at how tall the 18-year-old is.
Standing at 6 feet and 7 inches, his height wasn’t the only thing that caught the public’s eye.
Barron had an interaction with Joe Biden
Aside from seeming unimpressed with the declaration that his father plans on sending the U.S. to Mars, Barron Trump went viral for his mysterious exchange with Former President Joe Biden.
The two exchanged a handshake in which Barron appeared to say something to Biden.
The men greeted each other
Barron approached Biden to shake hands, with the latter appearing to offer pleasantries to the young man. Barron is then seen leaning over to say something to the former president.
The reason this moment went viral was because it was obvious that whatever Barron said caused Biden’s smile to drop.
People wondered what he said
Following the exchange going viral across social media and on TikTok, many wondered what the youngest member of the Trump family could have said to Joe Biden.
Under the video, one person wrote, “I so want to know what he said!!!!! Cause the look on Biden’s face says it all.”
People started speculating what it was
Another person under the video also commented, “Not sure what he said but wiped the smirk right off his face.”
Users started speculating what Barron’s words could have been, with many claiming they see him saying ‘you’re done’. This would be quite the shocking comment if it were true.
A lip reader put in his two cents
While many speculated over the exchange online, an expert lip reader shared what he thinks went down between the two.
Speaking to LADBible, expert witness forensic lip reader Jeremy Freeman added his two cents on what he believes Barron could have said to the former president.
Freeman believes Barron said ‘exactly’
The expert lip reader shared that he read Biden’s words to be ‘it’s good to see you man’ and Barron’s response as ‘exactly’.
I don’t know about you, but ‘exactly’ seems like a bizarre choice of words in response to such a pleasantry.
It’s understandable why Biden was confused
If it’s true that the 18-year-old responded with ‘exactly’ to a comment about how he’s doing then it makes sense now why Biden’s smile quickly turned into a confused facial expression.
And if you’re wondering what Barron could have possibly meant by this, well I’m not sure I understand it myself.
