So what was the context?

Trump was talking about a “bloodbath in the auto industry” if he’s not elected because of Biden auto regulations. The liars conveniently delete “in the auto industry”. Musk posted the entire speech on X.

The auto industry, if no tariffs are imposed. See comment #3 above.

So what was the context?

You'd have to read the article to get at the context Musk referred to.

Here's it is:

When Trump used the word "bloodbath," he was discussing China's reported plans to build cars in Mexico and sell them cheaply in the United States.

"We're going to put a 100% tariff on every single car that comes across the line and you're not going to be able to sell those cars if – I get elected," Trump said at the Ohio rally Saturday. "Now if I don't get elected it's going to be a bloodbath for the whole, that's going to be the least of it, it's going to be a bloodbath for the country. That'll be the least of it. But they're not going to sell those cars."

This is what he said: “We’re going to put a 100% tariff on every single car that comes across the line and you’re not going to be able to sell those cars if – I get elected,” Trump said at the Ohio rally Saturday. “Now if I don’t get elected it’s going to be a bloodbath for the whole, that’s going to be the least of it, it’s going to be a bloodbath for the country. That’ll be the least of it. But they’re not going to sell those cars.”

The media and the Democrats are saying he was calling for violence if he doesn’t win the election. Absolutely, 100% lying their behinds off. Same way they did when they claimed he said Nazis/KKK were “very fine people” - something he also never said.
