Does Musk recognize his support of Biden was a mistake?
Elon Musk's posts criticizing President Joe Biden on X, the social media site he bought in 2022, are growing as the presidential campaign season heads toward the party conventions and the election in November, attacking him on several topics including his age and his immigration policies.
Musk posted about Biden on X at least seven times a month since the beginning of the year, according to an analysis by The New York Times.
He only posted about Biden twice in December and didn't say anything about him in November, and overall, Musk has hit Biden with 40 posts already this year, compared to 30 times for all of 2023.
In comparison, Musk has posted more than 20 times about presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump, mainly defending him and arguing that he is a victim of bias in his criminal cases and that the media has been attacking him.
He also quickly restored Trump's account on X soon after buying the site. Twitter kicked the former president off the platform after the Jan. 6, 2021, protests at the Capitol. Trump has only posted once on X since then, as he posts instead on his platform, Truth Social.
Musk has not endorsed Trump, but he has had several conversations with him, and in March, Musk and Republican donors met with the former president in Palm Beach, Florida. After the meeting, Musk posted that he was not donating money to a presidential candidate on either side.

A majority of voters now see the election of Biden as a mistake. Biden has caused significant inflation which has negatively impacted millions of voters. Biden has also made the world less safe with war breaking out in Europe and the Middle East. Musk is spot on in his discussion of the war against Donald Trump. Trump had a much better record as president. The country was more prosperous and the world was more peaceful.
