Barron Trump had a quick interaction with former President Joe Biden during his father's inauguration, and social media users begged to know exactly what happened between them.
The 18-year-old New York University student was joined by his mother, Melania Trump, and his siblings on Monday at President Donald Trump's 2025 inauguration in Washington, D.C.
After Donald was sworn in for a second term as president, Barron was seen shaking hands with the outgoing president and Vice President Kamala Harris in the US Capitol Rotunda.
Now, a TikTok video showing Barron's brief conversation with the 82-year-old former president has completely captivated the internet.
The clip showed Barron grabbing Biden's hand before leaning in and appearing to whisper something in Biden's ear.
While the Delaware native had a smile on his face before his interaction with Barron, after the teen made his mysterious comment, Biden replaced his cheerful expression with a solemn one — and people on the internet were eager to know what he said.
On TikTok, where the video has been viewed more than 500,000 times, some users in the comments section offered their assessment of what Barron could have possibly said to Biden to make him pull such a somber expression.
“Looks like he said 'You're done' lol,” one person claimed.

“You forgot to forgive yourself,” someone else suggested.
A third user wrote: 'I don't know what he said but I bet I want it on a shirt.'
“I'm not sure what he said but wiped the grin off his face,” another person commented.
However, others claimed that he actually leaned over to talk to Harris and did not whisper in Biden's ear.
The viral video comes after Barron was praised as “a true gentleman” for shaking hands with Biden and Harris at his father's inauguration.
The peace gesture also led to social media users claiming that the college freshman was “raised well” by his mother Melania.
'I was very impressed by that gesture and by such a young person. It was very classy and mature to walk down the aisle and shake their hands. Good for Barron,” someone said.
'What a good young man… That gesture just tells you everything. Well done Melania,” said another.

Barron showed off a sleek new hairstyle as he attended his father's historic second inauguration.
He looked dapper in a long black overcoat with a white shirt and purple tie as he attended a church ceremony Monday morning at St. John's Episcopal Church, across from the White House.
The NYU-Stern student, who towers over his mother and father at 6-foot-4, kept his expression neutral as he walked into the church and sat down in a pew next to his parents.

After Trump was sworn in at a ceremony surrounded by tech titans and media moguls, the president promised a “new golden age of America.”
“You are now witnessing the dawn of America's golden age,” he declared to loud applause in an arena in downtown Washington. “We won't tolerate that nonsense anymore.”
In the first hours of his second term, Trump immediately made good on his promise by signing an executive order to undo 78 of Biden's presidential actions.
He announced a regulatory freeze, which will prevent bureaucrats from issuing regulations until the Trump administration has full control of the government, and a freeze on all federal hiring except for military and a few other essential areas.
Trump ordered a requirement that federal employees return to full-time in-person work, a directive for every department and agency to address the cost of living, and announced the withdrawal from the Paris climate treaty.
He also signed a government order that restored freedom of expression and prevented censorship of freedom of expression, and an order that ended the “weaponization of the government against the political opponents of the previous government.”
