Elon Musk captured the attention of the crowd during a pre-inauguration rally for U.S. President-elect Donald Trump on January 19, 2025. The Tesla CEO and owner of X brought his four-year-old son, X, onstage, drawing warm applause and attention from attendees. Musk’s son, who has made several public appearances since Trump’s landslide victory, joined his father at the event, enthusiastically supporting the rally and drawing smiles from onlookers.
Musk shared a heartfelt moment with the crowd, describing his son as an “enthusiastic supporter” of the event and the movement. As Musk took the stage, X was seen bouncing with excitement, clearly enjoying the moment. “Sorry, little X just followed me on the stage here. He’s a very enthusiastic supporter, as you can see,” Musk said, as the crowd cheered them both on.
Trump’s Warm Reception for Musk and His Son
President-elect Trump praised Musk for his contributions, even bringing him on stage during the rally. Trump humorously acknowledged Musk’s SpaceX accomplishments, saying, “Did you see his rocket yesterday? It was captured. Ah, and X is with him, X. Come on, Elon. Say a couple of words.”
The event, held in Washington D.C., marked a prelude to Trump’s official inauguration inside the U.S. Capitol, a decision made due to the extreme cold weather. As SpaceX CEO Musk took the stage, he and his son stood proudly before the crowd.
Musk’s brief but powerful speech centered on his vision for the future. He pledged that under Trump’s leadership, America would “do great things” and spoke about the importance of transforming the federal bureaucracy. “What matters going forward is to actually make significant changes, cement those changes, and set the foundation for America to be strong for a century, for centuries, forever,” Musk declared.
