“I will go there to show support!”, billionaire Elon Musk wrote on social network X when re-sharing the photo. Posts by the American billionaire and Mr. Trump both attracted more than 10 million views.
The rally on October 5 will be held at the same location where former President Trump was assassinated by gunman Thomas Crooks on July 13. After this incident, billionaire Musk strongly praised Mr. Trump and announced his support for him in the race for the White House.
Last month, the former US president was almost assassinated outside a golf course in Florida. Suspect Ryan Routh hid outside the golf course for nearly 12 hours and was discovered and chased by secret agents.
The former US president and billionaire Musk have recently had a close relationship. Mr. Trump announced that he would appoint Musk to lead the government audit committee if elected, to eliminate “trillions of dollars” in wasteful spending. Billionaire Musk late last month continued to urge Americans to vote for Mr. Trump, asserting that it was “the only way to save American democracy.”
