A recent photo of President Donald Trump in the Oval Office has been grabbing attention across social media, but not for the reasons the president likely anticipated. Captured in the photograph, Trump appears cheerful as he holds a model of Boom Aeroâs Overture One, known as the worldâs fastest airliner.
This image hints at a significant upgrade for Trumpâs presidential transport, as it suggests that the aircraft made by Boom, affectionately termed the âson of the Concorde,â might soon replace his current jet. Earlier this year, Boomâs XB-1 model impressed many by surpassing the speed of sound, clocking an astonishing 844mph, breaking the sound barrier by 83mph.
Blake Scholl, the founder and CEO of Boom Aero, took to Twitter, expressing excitement over the representation. He enthusiastically announced: âBy popular demand, THIS very special Overture One model is now available for pre-order in the @boomaero Merch store! And these models are made in America!â
Responses poured in, with questions about the manufacturing location and readiness of the model jet. Scholl was quick to assure one curious user that the aircraft would indeed be crafted in the U.S., exclaiming, âOf course!â When another inquired about shipping dates, Scholl admitted, âJuly. We are trying to speed it up.â
However, what truly captivated the online community wasnât the aircraft model but rather an unexpected detail spotted in the photoâs backdrop.

However, what truly captivated the online community wasnât the aircraft model but rather an unexpected detail spotted in the photoâs backdrop.
In the background, the scene features familiar elements like portraits of past presidents, classic furniture, flags, and a bust. Yet, upon closer examination, something unexpected comes into focusâa reflected image glimpsed in a mirror shows none other than Elon Musk.

It took just one sharp-eyed individual to zoom in, capture the lucky snapshot, and share it online, sparking a flurry of reactions. Some users found Muskâs reflected presence unsettling enough to dub the instance âsinister.â
The comment section quickly turned lively. One onlooker found the reflection âso creepy.â Another quipped with humor, âMirror mirror on the wall, whoâs the actual president of them all,â alluding to Muskâs unexpected appearance. Others suggested jokes about Muskâs constant presence, with one calling out: â@elonmusk go home bro or at least stop photobombing the president.â
The revelation comes amidst Elon Muskâs recent role as co-lead of the Department for Government Efficiency (DOGE), a position President Trump said he landed after admitting Musk was âthe smartest choiceâ when he couldnât find anyone he deemed more qualified.
The photo has become a viral sensation, proving once again that sometimes itâs not the focal point that steals the show, but those lurking in the background, even when they may be iconic figures like Elon Musk, capturing the imagination and humor of social media users worldwide.
