Musk is an avid Trump supporter. After the alleged attempted assassination of the former president, he published a provocative post on his platform.
Trump supporter Elon Musk reacted to the alleged attempted assassination of the former US president with a provocative post – but deleted the post a short time later. On his online platform X, he wrote: “And no one is even trying to murder Biden/Kamala.” He added an emoticon with a thoughtful face after the words. The post was no longer available this morning.
Tech billionaire Musk is supporting Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump ahead of the November election. On X, he is stirring up sentiment against his Democratic opponent Kamala Harris. US President Joe Biden is not running again.
After the shooting near Trump on Sunday, the FBI suspects that there was a planned assassination attempt on the former president. In mid-July, Trump was hit in the right ear by a bullet at a campaign event in the state of Pennsylvania.
Most recently, Musk reacted mockingly to a post by US superstar Taylor Swift in which she announced her decision to support Harris. Harris and Trump are roughly neck and neck in polls. Both are primarily looking to win over undecided voters.
