Billionaire Investor Elon Musk has publicly endorsed former President Donald Trump, following a disturbing incident at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, where gunshots were fired in Trump’s direction.
Musk took to social media to express his support for Trump, stating, “I fully endorse President Trump and hope for his rapid recovery.” This endorsement comes as Trump was rushed offstage during the rally and is currently under observation.
Musk’s support for Trump is notable, given his recent donation to a political action committee working to elect Trump. This move marks a shift in Musk’s political stance, as he had previously stated that he would not donate to either candidate in the US presidential election.
The incident at the Pennsylvania rally has raised concerns about political violence and the safety of public figures. The event was captured in disturbing images that have circulated widely in the media.
Musk’s endorsement of Trump has drawn attention to the ongoing political tensions in the US. The two have been known to have a complicated relationship, with Musk previously criticizing Trump’s immigration policies. However, it appears that Musk has now thrown his support behind the former president.
