Elon Musk Just Told Tucker That He Voted For Biden In 2020–And Trump Is Pissed

In a recent interview, Elon Musk confessed to Tucker Carlson that he voted for Joe Biden over Donald Trump in the 2020 election, stating he wanted 'a normal person with common sense.'

Former Republican President Donald Trump lashed out at billionaire Elon Musk after Musk's revelation that he voted for Democratic President Joe Biden in the 2020 election.

The information angered Trump because, according to him, Musk had previously said he'd voted for him.


In an interview with Fox News personality Tucker Carlson that aired on Monday, Musk confirmed that he had, in fact, voted for Biden. However, he also clarified that he was not necessarily a fan of the current President.

Noting that he’d prefer “just a normal person as president, a normal person with common sense and whose values are smack in the middle of the country," said:

“I didn’t vote for Donald Trump."
"I actually voted for Biden. I’m not saying I’m a huge fan of Biden, since that would probably be inaccurate. But, you know, we have difficult choices to make in these presidential elections.”

You can hear what Musk said in the video below.

Trump, on the other hand, was not convinced by Musk's admission.

He took to his social media platform, Truth Social, to declare that he did not believe Musk voted for Biden, and he accused Musk of "trying to make friends" with the Biden administration to secure government subsidies and permits.

Trump said:

"I don't believe Elon Musk voted for Biden, not for a minute!"
"He told me that he voted for me, but who knows about that, and who cares? Elon is just trying to make friends with the absolutely horrible Biden Administration because of all the government subsidies he gets, and all the permits he needs."

You can see Trump's post below.

Musk's revelation and Trump's subsequent attack exposed the both of them to criticism.


Though Musk has officially reinstated Trump to Twitter, Trump has opted not to join the platform, preferring to devote his time to Truth Social, a conservative playground and Twitter clone.

And while Musk has publicly defended Trump on many occasions, Trump wasn't particularly fond of him last summer, referring to Musk as a "bullsh*t artist" shortly after Musk announced what proved to be a futile attempt to abandon his deal to purchase Twitter for $44 billion.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
