You might have heard about the recent event centered around Elon Musk’s young son and his memorable visit to the White House’s Oval Office. It’s safe to say it was an eventful day for those present, especially for former President Donald Trump, who experienced quite a bit of mischief involving the famous Resolute Desk.
During this visit, the young one managed to grab the spotlight with actions that were both amusing and eyebrow-raising. He confidently perched on the Resolute Desk, which is a historic piece of furniture used by U.S. Presidents over the years.
To everyone’s surprise, he even told Trump to be quiet, going so far as to assert that Trump was not the U.S. President. His boldness didn’t stop there. Amid chuckling and funny faces, he excused himself to go to the restroom as if the Oval Office was just another room in his home.
While his father, Elon Musk, seemed to turn a blind eye to the antics, the cameras captured each moment, quickly sending the footage viral all over the globe. The world got a good laugh, but Trump was left feeling a mix of amusement and dismay.
The situation took a more unpleasant turn when the young boy, unconcerned with Presidential decorum, picked his nose while Trump was addressing him and discreetly wiped the remains on the President’s desk. Trump, either out of patience or decorum, didn’t respond at the moment, but observers noted his displeasure.
The incident didn’t go unnoticed for long, as sources revealed that Trump promptly ordered to have the iconic Resolute Desk replaced. This decision led to speculation – was the desk irreparably tainted by this minor incident, or was it simply due for an update? Regardless of the reason, the desk that witnessed so many significant moments in history has become part of a new story.
For those who appreciate the history and stories surrounding presidential furniture, the tale of the Resolute Desk’s replacement is a reminder of how even the seemingly timeless can be subject to change. As for Elon Musk’s son, perhaps this story will serve both as a humorous anecdote to look back on and a lesson in White House etiquette.
