Elon Musk made it clear that he has no regrets about his X article pondering why no one tried to kill Kamala Harris or Joe Biden, when he sat down for an interview with Tucker Carlson on Monday night.
On Sunday September 15, the CEO of X, Tesla and SpaceX sparked outrage when he responded to a social media post about the second alleged assassination of Donald Trump.
“Why do they want to kill Donald Trump?” the text was read.
“And no one is trying to kill Biden/Kamala,” Musk replied, followed by a thoughtful emoji.
Musk joined former Fox News host Carlson on X on Monday, where he was asked about the issue.
“I joked that no one is trying to kill Kamala because it is pointless,” he said. “What do you get?” No one. They will put another idol.”
“It is profoundly true,” the careful commentator Carlson replied.
“Some interpreted that I was shouting for people to kill [Harris]but I was like…isn’t it weird that no one ever bothered to try,” Musk continued with a laugh. “No one tries to kill an idol.”
The tech mogul’s position came after alleged would-be shooter Ryan Wesley Routh was caught allegedly pointing a gun through a fence at Trump’s Florida golf course while the Republican vice president was playing.
Authorities said Routh was spotted by Secret Service agents who opened fire, prompting him to flee the scene. The person was caught soon after.
Musk later deleted his comments following the uproar.
In a follow-up post, he added: “One lesson I’ve learned is that just because I say something to a group and they laugh doesn’t mean it’s going to be all that interesting like a post on X.
“It goes to show that jokes are less funny when people don’t know the context and tone of the script.”
Musk came out in support of Trump earlier this summer following the first attempt to assassinate the former president at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13.
The approval confirmed the tech entrepreneur’s shift to the right since the Covid-19 pandemic and was followed by him conducting an X Spaces interview with Trump, who later promoted Musk as a future member of his potential second term. by cutting inefficiencies in the operation of the federal government.
Musk said he “wants to serve” in the expected second term of Trump and appeared with the representative on his return to Butler on Saturday, introducing himself to the crowd in a funny way as a member of “Dark MAGA” and warning that the future of the country is at stake if Harris and Tim Walz win in November.
After taking on Trump, Musk admitted to Carlson on Monday that he’s “f***ed” if Trump doesn’t emerge victorious on November 5.
“It seems so,” laughed the expert.
“I’m like, ‘How long do you think my prison sentence will be? Will I see my children?’ I don’t know,” Musk replied.
“I have nothing to show for it and I’ve been trashing Kamala non-stop!”
