It was during the delivering of the statement by Elon Musk as he honestly defended cuts to federal government programs. Meanwhile, Little X, originally known as ‘X Æ A-XII’ instructed someone off camera to ‘SHHH’ and ‘Shut Your Mouth’.
Some reporters present at the session laughed as X stuck his fingers in his father’s ears, while prompting the Tesla CEO to say, “I thought my son might enjoy this, but it’s that he is sticking his fingers in my ears and stuff.”
“So it’s been hard to hear sometimes. Hey! Stop that,” Musk told his son.
