Elon Musk said in an interview with Tucker Carlson on Monday night that he has no regrets about his post about why no one tried to assassinate Kamala Harris or Joe Biden. revealed.
On Sunday, September 15, the CEOs of Company X, Tesla, and SpaceX responded to social media posts about President Donald Trump’s second alleged assassination attempt, sparking outrage.
“Why are they trying to kill Donald Trump?” the post read.
“And no one is even trying to assassinate Biden/Kamala,” Musk replied, followed by a thoughtful face emoji.
Musk joined former Fox News host Carlson on Show X on Monday, where he was asked about the scandal.
“I joked that no one was even trying to kill Kamala because it was pointless,” he said. “What does it accomplish? Nothing. They just put another doll in.”
“That’s very true,” conservative commentator Carlson responded.
“Some people interpreted it as me calling on people to assassinate me.” [Harris]but I thought… doesn’t it seem strange that no one even tries? ” Musk continued with a laugh. “No one will try to assassinate a puppet.”
The tech mogul’s post comes after suspected gunman Ryan Wesley Routh was arrested after allegedly pointing a rifle over the fence during the Republican presidential candidate’s round at Trump’s Florida golf course. Posted later.
Authorities said Routh was spotted by a Secret Service agent who opened fire and fled the scene. The suspect was arrested shortly thereafter.
Musk deleted his comments following the uproar.
In a follow-up post, he added: “One of the lessons I learned is that just because I say something to a group and they laugh doesn’t mean it’s going to be all that funny as a post about X.
“We’ve found that jokes aren’t as funny when people don’t know the context and are delivered via text.”
Musk announced his support for Trump earlier this summer following the first attempt to kill the former president at a July 13 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
The endorsement solidifies the tech entrepreneur’s personal shift to the right since the coronavirus pandemic, following his interview with President Trump at was promoted as a member who could potentially take on future duties. Reduce inefficiencies in federal government operations.
Musk, who said he would be “willing to serve” in the anticipated second Trump administration, appeared with the candidate as he returned to Butler on Saturday and excitedly told the crowd that he was a member of “dark MAGA.” He declared that this was the case and warned that: If Harris and Tim Walz win in November, the future of the country is at stake.
Musk, who has given his all to Trump, admitted to Carlson on Monday that he would be “disappointed” if Trump didn’t win on Nov. 5.
“It certainly looks like it,” laughed the expert.
“It’s like, ‘How long do you think my sentence will be?'” Will he be able to see his children? ‘I don’t know,’ Musk replied.
“I have no plausible deniability and continue to bash Kamala non-stop!”
