Billionaire Elon Musk sent out a controversial post on Sunday following the attempted assassination on former President Donald Trump.
Following the attempted assassination on the GOP nominee, Musk took to X, formerly twitter, where he claimed President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have not had to face assassination attempts.
On Sunday, Secret Service shot at a man who was hiding in a bush at the property line of Trump’s West Palm Beach golf club. The individual had a rifle, two backpacks, and Gopro camera.
A user called Doge Designer asked on X, “Why they want to kill Donald Trump?” Musk responded to the post by claiming, “And no one is even trying to assassinate Biden/Kamala.”
The tweet incited rage from users across the site, including The Dispatch editor-in-chief Jonah Goldberg, who called his comments “appalling and indefensible.”
This is appalling and indefensible. https://t.co/QXAHfOdTnS

This is actually crazy. You’ve officially lost it dude and it’s sad to see. A lot of people look up to you but you’re being super irresponsible all because you crave attention https://t.co/REYfWEWJia
