A lip reader has revealed what he believes what Barron Trump said to Joe Biden during their exchange at Donald Trump’s inauguration ceremony.
Yesterday saw Trump officially become the 47th U.S. President after defeating Democrat nominee Kamala Harris last November.
The inauguration kicked off the next four years of Trump’s America in a predictable fashion, with the president making bold declarations about renaming the Gulf of Mexico and send the USA to Mars. ‘First buddy’ Elon Musk also made headlines for his bizarre reaction to the Mars news before making a decisively dodgy looking salute on stage not once, but twice.
Another person to make headlines was the president’s youngest son Barron, who attended alongside his mother and older half-siblings.
Other than shocking people with his height – standing at 6 feet, 7 inches tall, Barron surpasses certainly Gary Barlow’s massive son in size terms – and appearing unimpressed by the prospect of a Mars colonisation, the 18-year-old also made headlines after his interaction with ex-President Biden.
What happened between Barron Trump and Joe Biden?
The exchange sees the two men shake hands, with Biden seemingly offering pleasantries to the youngest member of the Trump children. Barron then leans over to say something in response, which wipes the polite smile off the former President’s face.
Have a look at the exchange, which has since gone viral across social media, below:

The TikTok clip, which has since been viewed hundreds of thousands of times, has captured the attention of viewers worldwide and it seems they all have the same question – what could Barron have said in order to cause such a change in facial expression?
What did Barron Trump say to Joe Biden?
“I so want to know what he said!!!!! Cause the look on Biden’s face says it all,” one user commented, while a second added: “Not sure what he said but wiped the smirk right off his face.”
It didn’t take long for people to come up with wild speculations either, with several commenters claiming the teenager uttered the words ‘you’re done’ to the 82-year-old.
Which would be a pretty scathing comment to take if true.
However, a lip reader has since come up with another explanation for what could’ve occurred during the exchange.
Offering an explanation for what transpired between the two men, expert witness forensic lip reader Jeremy Freeman told LADbible what he believes Biden said: “It’s good to see you man,” to which Barron responded with a slightly bizarre ‘Exactly’.
Responding ‘exactly’ to someone asking how you’re doing would be a pretty strange choice of words, which could in turn explain why Biden looked so confused just moments after.
As for what Barron’s supposed ‘exactly’ response could mean, your guess is as good as mine.
All the executive orders Donald Trump has signed so far
Policy recognising only ‘two genders’
The president signed an order which will make it an official policy that there are only ‘two genders’.
The policy reads: “Agencies will cease pretending that men can be women and women can be men when enforcing laws that protect against sex discrimination.
“These sexes are not changeable and are grounded in fundamental and incontrovertible reality.”
The order will also bring to an end ‘wasteful’ government programmes which promote diversity and inclusivity, as well as ‘defending women from gender ideology extremism’.
Free speech
The president accused the previous administration of ‘trampling free speech rights by censoring Americans’ speech’ and vowed to restore freedom of speech.
The order states it will ‘ensure that no Federal Government officer, employee, or agent engages in or facilitates any conduct that would unconstitutionally abridge the free speech of any American citizen’ and will ‘end censorship of protected speech’.
Leaving the World Health Organisation
The president accused the organisation of fumbling the COVID-19 pandemic and said the US would no longer be ‘ripped off’ by it.
While signing a document to have the US leave the health agency, Trump said: “World Health ripped us off, everybody rips off the United States. It’s not going to happen anymore.”
TikTok ban
As expected, Trump signed an executive order which hits pause on the US’ ban of the popular app, allowing time for an ‘appropriate course forward’.
“I guess I have a warm spot for TikTok that I didn’t have originally,” he said.
January 6 pardons
Trump’s loss in the 2020 election led to the insurrection at the Capitol on January 6, 2021, in turn resulting in the arrests of a number of Trump supporters.
And as anticipated, the president has wasted no time in issuing pardons for offenders. Trump said he’s pardoned around 1,500 people and issued six commutations.
Immigration
Trump has issued a slew of immigration-related policies during his first day back in the White House as he declared illegal immigration at the US-Mexico border a national emergency.
Trump has already gotten started on reversing several Biden-era immigration orders and has plans to send US troops to help immigration agents and restrict refugees.
The president has also got the wheels in motion to prevent children of immigrants in the US illegally from having citizenship.
Speaking at his inauguration, he said: “All illegal entry will immediately be halted, and we will begin the process of returning millions and millions of criminal aliens back to the places from which they came.”
Restoring the death penalty
Calling capital punishment an ‘essential tool for deterring and punishing those who would commit the most heinous crimes’, Trump signed an order which will ensure states have enough lethal injection drugs for executions.
“The Attorney General shall pursue the death penalty for all crimes of a severity demanding its use,” the order says.
Renaming the Gulf of Mexico
Following through on his promise during a press conference earlier this month, Trump has now ordered the Gulf of Mexico to be called the Gulf of America.
“President Trump is bringing common sense to government and renewing the pillars of American Civilization,” the executive order said.
Despite the order, it won’t change how it is named globally.
Energy policy
Trump has vowed to ‘unleash American energy’, promising to export US energy globally as he signed the order amid what he describes as a ‘national energy emergency’.
“America is blessed with an abundance of energy and natural resources that have historically powered our Nation’s economic prosperity. In recent years, burdensome and ideologically motivated regulations have impeded the development of these resources, limited the generation of reliable and affordable electricity, reduced job creation, and inflicted high energy costs upon our citizens,” the order states.
The order will also reverse Biden’s ban on drilling in Alaska as Trump declared America ‘will be a rich nation again’.
Cost of living
In the order, Trump vowed to issue ’emergency price relief’ to Americans aimed at lowering housing prices and availability and creating ’employment opportunities for American workers’.
Trump will also ‘eliminate harmful, coercive “climate” policies that increase the costs of food and fuel’.
Drug cartels
Trump has said drug cartels will now be classified as terrorist organisations.
“International cartels constitute a national-security threat beyond that posed by traditional organised crime,” the orders says.
Federal workers
Federal employees have now been classified as political hires – a move which in theory would make them easier to fire.
Trump also declared a federal hiring freeze which will reduce the size of federal government.
