The 6-year-old son of a US congressman became well-known recently when a video of him cracking jokes during his father's speech to the House of Representatives went viral. Guy, Tennessee Representative John Rose's son, was the star of the show on June 3 at the Capitol when he and his father addressed the criminal accusations brought against former President Donald Trump for allegedly forging 34 corporation documents in connection with a payment of hush money during the 2016 presidential election.
 

The kid wins hearts all over

Rose speaks in a video that has been posted to X, not realizing that Guy is squatting behind him, mugging for the camera. Guy opens his performance by grinning at the camera, then he rolls his eyes and puts out his tongue. The fidgety child passes the time by making various shapes with his hands. For the entire five minutes of the video, Guy does not stop grinning and waving at the camera. Eventually, he grew weary and moved to play with a plush toy. Rose and several other social media users were grinning at Guy's activities.

From Kindergarten Assembly to the political Assembly 

The father of two then shared the video on social media platform X, captioning it, "This is what I get for telling my kid Guy to smile at the camera for his tiny brother."The child, who just completed kindergarten, is staying with the lawmaker for the week, as reported by the Associated Press. The youngest child of Rose, Sam, who is three years old, and his spouse, Chelsea, have returned to Tennessee. According to PEOPLE, he had backed Trump after the latter lost to Joe Biden in the 2020 presidential election. In a column published in December 2020, Rose questioned the legitimacy of the results and erroneously called the election a "rigged game."

Rose, meanwhile, has made several headlines in the past. Rose has remained steadfast in his support of Trump as the 2024 election draws near, characterizing the former president's recent conviction—awarded by a unanimous panel of 12 carefully chosen jurors—as “the product of a prosecution in search of a crime” in his June 3 speech.
