Listen, it's probably pretty cool when your dad becomes President of the United States, but no child wants to sit through a lengthy inauguration ceremony on a Friday.

Barron Trump proved this today, when he accompanied his family to the U.S. Capitol building to watch his dad become the 45th president. The kid was not feeling it.

On the way to his seat, Barron was in full-on ~whatever~ mode.

The poor kid seemed almost as tired as he was during his dad's presidential victory speech. Look at that yawn. He just wanted to lounge in bed and finish binge-watching A Series of Unfortunate Events on Netflix, but nooo.

Twitter users agreed that Barron would rather be anywhere else in the world, and began brainstorming all the activities the youngest son of the president-elect would rather be doing.

But Barron's day hasn't been a total wash— he had fun at the signing, where he loved playing peek-a-boo with Ivanka's baby, Theo.
