Internet Erupts After Elon Musk’s Dangerous Tweet About Assassinating Joe Biden And Kamala Harris
Elon Musk has ignited outrage and alarm with a dangerously provocative post on X (formerly Twitter) that many are interpreting as an incitement to violence against President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.
In his incendiary post, Musk wrote: “And no one is even trying to assassinate Biden/Harris,” accompanied by a questioning emoji. This came in response to a query about why there was an alleged attempt on Donald Trump’s life.
Musk’s shocking statement emerged just hours after a reported second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. The suspect, Ryan Wesley Routh—a white male in his mid-60s with a history of violence—was apprehended after allegedly aiming an AK-style rifle at Trump International Golf Club. Despite the gravity of the situation, Trump remained unharmed, but the motives behind Routh’s actions remain murky. Routh, who had previously supported Trump and other Republican candidates, is now facing serious charges.
The billionaire’s post has sparked a tidal wave of condemnation, with critics labeling Musk as “PSYCHOTIC” and demanding he delete his account. Many view his comment as a blatant encouragement of violence, with some users calling it “literal incitement.”
“This is not just reckless; it’s a dangerous provocation,” one outraged user declared.
Another urged, “Seek help.”
