WASHINGTON, DC: Barron Trump's brief exchange with former president Joe Biden at the inauguration ceremony of his father Donald Trump on January 20 has reportedly gone viral across social media platforms.

Barron reached out across the aisle after Donald Trump took the oath of Office to shake hands with both Biden and former vice president, Kamala Harris.

According to a Ladbible report, the 82-year-old seemingly offered pleasantries to the towering teenager, but his polite smile dropped after receiving a response.



 

What did Barron Trump tell Joe Biden?

While the cameras present inside the Capitol Rotunda captured the interaction between Barron Trump and Joe Biden, their brief exchange was not picked up. As such, speculations ran high about the subject of their conversation.

In search of an explanation, Ladbible reached out to expert witness forensic lip reader Jeremy Freeman, who shared what he believed were the words exchanged between Biden and Barron.

Biden likely told Barron while shaking his hands, "It's good to see you man," to which the latter responded, "Exactly."

The reply's bizarre nature might have been why Biden looked slightly thrown off moments later.



 

According to the publication, Baron Trump looked mostly unimpressed throughout the event. Even his father's over-the-top declarations of renaming the Gulf of Mexico and colonizing Mars failed to interest the 18-year-old.
