Elon Musk drew fierce backlash on his own X (formerly Twitter) platform for what was slammed as an appalling and indefensible response to an apparent second attempt on the life of former President Donald Trump , the current GOP presidential nominee.

Per the FBI , Trump was the subject of what appears to be an attempted assassination at his golf club in Florida on Sunday, some nine weeks after he was injured when shots were fired during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

Musk posted: And no one is even trying to assassinate Biden/Kamala.

The billionaire, who has 197 million followers, added a thinking-face emoji.
