Following an assassination attempt on the life of former US president, Donald Trump, the owner of the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, Elon Musk has declared support for the former president’s candidature.
This endorsement follows a shocking incident that transpired during Trump’s Saturday campaign stop in Pennsylvania.
Elon Musk announced his decision to fully support Donald Trump in the upcoming US presidential election in a tweet made in the late hours of Saturday, July 13, 2024.
“I fully endorse President Trump and hope for his rapid recovery”, Musk wrote as he also wished the former president a speedy recovery.
Elon Musk also commended the ‘courage’ of Donald Trump, likening his toughness only to that of the 26th US President, Theodore Roosevelt.
Nevertheless, the digital titan demanded in a different post that the nation’s chief of Secret Service step down honourably in the wake of Trump’s attempted murder.
“The head of the Secret Service and the leader of this security detail should resign”, Elon Musk wrote.
Remember that an eyewitness told the BBC that he reported a suspicious man with a rifle on a roof to the police and Secret Service, but he was disregarded.
According to videos that are currently making the rounds on social media, Trump was seen with blood on his right ear as security guards hurriedly surrounded him.
Raising his fist to the audience, the former president was then hastily removed from the platform.
