Just last month, the pint-sized scene-stealer grabbed attention during a White House event where Trump signed an executive order implementing the Department of Government Efficiency's (DOGE) workforce optimization initiative.



 

Introducing Lil X to the room, Trump affectionately quipped, “This is X, and he’s a great guy- a high IQ individual.”

But it was Lil X’s innocent antics that stole the show.



 

Videos of the youngster casually picking his nose, and then wiping it on Trump’s Oval Office desk, quickly spread across social media, much to the internet’s amusement.
