As controversies started surrounding Gaetz, Tesla CEO Elon Musk defended the 42-year-old lawyer and called the scandals “worth less than nothing.”
“Matt Gaetz has 3 critical assets that are needed for the AG role: a big brain, a spine of steel and an axe to grind. He is the Judge Dredd America needs to clean up a corrupt system and put powerful bad actors in prison. Gaetz will be our Hammer of Justice,” he wrote on X.
Musk later added, “Under our laws, a man is considered innocent until proven guilty. If AG Garland (an unprincipled d——–) could have secured a conviction against Gaetz, he would have, but he knew he could not. Case closed.”
