THE GUARDIAN: Billionaire says it would be pointless to kill ‘puppet’ vice-president in interview with Tucker Carlson
Elon Musk has said it would be “pointless” to try to kill Kamala Harris weeks after a pressure campaign led to him to delete a social media post expressing surprise that no one had tried to assassinate the vice-president or Joe Biden.
The Tesla and Space X entrepreneur re-entered the murky waters of political assassinations in a web video interview with the former Fox News host Tucker Carlson which Musk then posted on the X platform that he owns.
Referencing the original comment at the beginning of the one hour and 48 minute exchange, Musk tells Carlson: “I made a joke, which I realised – I deleted – which is like: nobody’s even bothering to try to kill Kamala because it’s pointless. What do you achieve?”
Both men dissolved into laughter, with Carlson responding: “It’s deep and true though.” » | Robert Tait in Washington | Tuesday, October 8, 2024
