Donald Trump attacked Tesla CEO Elon Musk during a rally on Saturday in Alaska, calling him a “bullshit artist” for supporting his opponents in 2016 and 2020 then lied to him about it and for reneging on his deal to buy Twitter.
“Elon. Elon is not going to buy Twitter. Where did you hear that before? From me,” Trump said. “You know, he said the other day, Oh, I’ ve never voted for a Republican. I said: ‘I didn’t know that.’ He told me he voted for me. So he’s another bullshit artist.”
Trump called Musk’s contract with Twitter a “rotten deal.”
“He’s not going to be by buying it,” Trump said. “Although he might later. Who the hell knows what’s going to happen? He’s got a pretty rotten contract. I looked at his contract. Not a good contract.”
