Billionaire says it would be pointless to kill ‘puppet’ vice-president in interview with Tucker Carlson

Elon Musk has said it would be “pointless” to try to kill Kamala Harris weeks after a pressure campaign led to him to delete a social media post expressing surprise that no one had tried to assassinate the vice-president or Joe Biden.

The Tesla and Space X entrepreneur re-entered the murky waters of political assassinations in a web video interview with the former Fox New host Tucker Carlson which Musk then posted on the X platform that he owns.
