Heartwarming photos of Trump with Musk's son 'Lil X' go viral

The snap has garnered more than 4 million views as of Saturday morning.

"I love this pic! Lil X looks so happy," wrote one user with a blush emoji on X.

Video and other pictures of Trump, 78, and Lil X, 4, show the two exiting a White House door with the tech billionaire's son dressed in a black coat with a USA pin and holding what appears to be a bag of candy.

Jumping and skipping with excitement, Lil X leads Trump out as they walk down a small ramp on the White House South Lawn toward Marine Force One. 

Trump, also in a black coat, then waves towards the cameras, prompting Lil X to look over to the press pool. As soon as he spots the cameras, he smiles and jumps with his hands in the air. 

"That's a happy picture," Musk wrote on X about a similar photo of the two at that moment.

The jump image drew comparisons to a viral image of Musk jumping at a Trump campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, in October.

At one point on Friday, Trump stops and gives an X sign with his hand and then points at Lil X.

In other images, President Trump can be seen carefully lifting Lil X onto the steps of Marine One.

They are then followed by Musk and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. Marine Force one then departed for Joint Base Andrews. 

"It's lovely to see [Lil] X feels that comfortable with President Trump," wrote another poster. "Day by day we see Elon and President together. You can fake that people say but X is playful with President trump. Kids don't know how to fake things or relationships. There is only love."

Another user chimed in: "This [is] what happens when you have a man in office that loves his family, loves his country! Get on board people!"

Lil X was seen playfully mimicking his father, flashing funny faces and picking his nose before Musk hoisted him on his shoulders.
