A lip reader has shared his thoughts on a viral video of Barron Trump and Joe Biden after viewers were left desperate to know what the new president's son said.

The exchange between Barron and Biden took place at the inauguration of Donald Trump yesterday (January 20), when he was officially sworn in as the 47th President of the United States.

The event was attended by former presidents including George W. Bush, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, as well as Biden and multiple members of Trump's family, which is how Biden and Barron ended up greeting each other at one point during the video.

In one angle of the scene which has since gone viral, Biden can be seen leaning in to shake Barron's hand while speaking to him. The younger Trump then appears to lean towards the outgoing president and make a comment that left viewers absolutely hooked, with people desperate for insight into what he said.

"Barron wiped that smile from Biden’s face. What do you think he said?" one Twitter user wrote as they shared the video.

Another responded: "I would really love to know."

After taking a look at the viral clip, lip reader Jeremy Freeman shared his thoughts on what Biden and Barron could have said to one another.

Freeman told LADbible that as Biden shook Barron's hand, he told him: "It's good to see you man."

According to Freeman, Barron then responded: "Exactly."

Without audio it's hard to know for certain what was said during the exchange, but a new angle of the moment has now shed more light on what went down.

In the more recently emerged footage, it becomes apparent that after shaking Biden's hand, Barron moved on to shaking the hand of Kamala Harris - it's just the angle of the initial video that makes him look like he was leaning closely to Biden.

After viewers saw the new angle, Barron received praise for being a 'gentleman' and showing 'class' by shaking Harris' hand after she went up against his dad in the race for president.

"That's a bit of 'class' right there by Baron Trump," one viewer wrote, as another added: "Direct eye contact and a handshake. A respectful thing. Young men don’t do this very often nowadays."

Barron, an 18-year-old New York University student, was joined at the inauguration by his mother, Melania Trump, as well as his brothers and sisters.
