Elon Musk Awkwardly Chanting 'USA' At Trump Rally Is Making The Internet Cringe

During Donald Trump's rally at Madison Square Garden on Sunday, Elon Musk led the crowd in the most awkward "USA" chant.

Elon Musk is good at many things, but none of his talents are quite so honed as his knack for cringe.

And his appearance at Trump's bizarre, Hitler-referencing Madison Square Garden rally was no exception.


While speaking on stage at the event, Musk couldn't stop screaming "USA!"—certainly nothing new for a Trump rally.

But the WAY he screamed it... well, it was downright awkward.

It was Musk's job to introduce former First Lady Melania Trump to the massive crowd, but before doing so he led the crowd in a "USA" chant that sounded something like Keanu Reeves might have done while in character for Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure. Except without any of the charm or humor.

Either that, or someone who took a sedative before he got on the stage.

He then added a very Evita-style hand gesture that made the whole thing even more awkward before erupting into a shout of "Fuuuu*k!" for whatever reason.

Some couldn't help but be reminded of Howard Dean's awkward "yeeaaaaaaaah!" scream moment from 2004, which in retrospect was perfectly harmless—except to Dean's prospects in the presidential primary, of course.

Musk's on the other hand was in service of an openly Nazi-style event that will have no repercussions for him whatsoever. Interesting what can change over the course of 20 years.

Anyway, Musk's weird performance did not go over well at all with team normal, and there was lots of mockery.












Musk is also in some hot water at the moment—a bombshell Wall Street Journal report recently revealed that Musk, a government contractor, has been having regular chit-chats with Vladimir Putin for at least the past two years.

And the day after his weird "USA" chant, the Philadelphia District Attorney filed a lawsuit to stop Musk's scheme of awarding swing-state voters with $1 million prizes in exchange for signing some petition he's circulating.

This is America, so it's likely neither of these will be taken seriously enough to actually have consequences for Musk, but we can certainly dream.

Fox Host Slams Dem For Dropping An F-Bomb After Praising Trump For The Same Thing Just Minutes Earlier

Fox News host Emily Compagno was criticized after she praised Donald Trump's use of the "f-bomb" earlier this week before condemning Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett's use of the same word—on the same episode of her show, no less.

Trump made headlines this week after admonishing Israel and Iran for violating a ceasefire agreement he'd announced on Truth Social. Although he claimed the ceasefire had been "agreed upon," Iran fired at least six missile barrages at Israel after it was supposed to take effect.

State Department Slammed After Requiring Visa Applicants To Make All Social Media Posts Public For Vetting

The State Department is facing harsh criticism after it announced that anyone applying for an F, M, or J nonimmigrant visa will need to disclose all social media profiles from the last five years, requiring that all applicants set their posts to public so they can be properly vetted by its agents.

The agency said the new rules are part of a new screening process aimed at identifying individuals who may pose a threat to U.S. national security. According to the department, failure to comply could result in a denial, and consular officers have been instructed to flag signs of “hostility” toward the U.S.—though the criteria for such determinations remain vague.
