A newly released photo of former President Donald Trump in the Oval Office is generating significant attention—not only because he’s holding a model of Boom Aero’s supersonic jet, the Overture One, but also due to a surprising reflection in the background. The image, posted by Boom Aero CEO Blake Scholl, shows Trump proudly holding the jet model, a nod to potential plans for a supersonic Air Force One. The Overture One, dubbed the “son of the Concorde,” recently reached 844 mph in tests, and Boom Aero confirmed that both the real aircraft and its merchandise are made in America.
While aviation fans were excited about the Overture model, the internet quickly zeroed in on an unexpected detail: Elon Musk’s faint reflection in a mirror behind Trump. The tech mogul’s subtle appearance immediately ignited social media reactions, with users describing it as everything from “creepy” to a “jumpscare.” The viral moment sparked a mix of humor and speculation about Musk’s deepening involvement in government affairs.
Musk’s presence in the Oval Office isn’t merely symbolic—he’s been appointed co-lead of Trump’s newly created Department for Government Efficiency (DOGE). Trump, in characteristic style, joked that he chose Musk because he “couldn’t find anyone smarter.” With Musk now holding an official role and a supersonic jet possibly in the future of U.S. presidential travel, the Trump-Musk partnership appears to be moving at high speed—both literally and politically.
