Elon Musk has issued a statement after being accused of giving a “Nazi salute” during yesterday’s inauguration for Donald Trump.
Trump was officially sworn in on Monday, January 20, and will now begin his second term as President of the United States. Naturally, there was plenty to talk about following yesterday’s swearing in, with Trump making typically lofty promises as for the next four years.
Yet though some people chose to focus on First Lady Melania Trump’s choice of hat, while others zoned in on just how much Vice President J.D. Vance’s daughter resembles her father, it was arguably Elon Musk who caused the most stir online.
The Tesla CEO and SpaceX founder, who used his social media platform ‘X’ (formerly Twitter) to champion Trump’s cause in the run up to the election, was at the Capital One Arena in Washington ahead of yesterday’s Inauguration Day parade.
