Tesla CEO Elon Musk is defending former President Donald Trump on Sunday after multiple establishment media outlets ran headlines stating that the former president warned the U.S. would see a "bloodbath" if he is not reelected.
Although Trump did use the word "bloodbath" during a speech in Ohio on Saturday, outlets such as NPR, Politico, The Hill, NBC News, The New York Times and others used the term in headlines without context. Musk said the headlines were "legacy media lies" and he made multiple posts Sunday criticizing their use of the term and stressing the need for context.
Musk responded to MSNBC's "Morning Joe" co-host Joe Scarborough's post on X, formerly Twitter, of video clips from the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot and the caption: "Donald Trump’s America. And he is proud of it. Promised another 'bloodbath' if he loses again."

The ginned up Leftist hysteria over the Trump "bloodbath" comment is simply going to drive more of their base over to Trump.
Yep, another shot to the Dems foot.
In China, you would be arrested, beaten, and perhaps permanently disappeared for the same thing. Be glad you are only being “censored”.
And the Chinese will be grateful to collect all your data, contacts, appointments, family members and all of their data, and so on.
You obviously never lived in another country. Let alone one that imposes severe penalties for speaking out.
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.
Yes. We have a few FReepers checking it out. Why don't you use TikTok sometime?
TikTok is mostly famous for lots of transgender content.
Not true. Unless you're interested in that content. Then the algorithm will adjust so you will see that content frequently.
How long has it been since Thomas Paine was part of American public school curriculum? Is the American Revolution even taught? I know black slaves built America while European immigrants were busing killing Native Americans for sport.
But what will the bloodbath be? My Ford Fusion was assembled in Mexico. No bloodbath. There’s a lot of wiggle room or maybe weasel wording in that statement.
I'm not seeing it while I'm using TikTok.
Do you see transgender content while you're using TikTok?
But Musk bought Twitter to make it unusable to run again as a state organ, a story that has not been fully told yet, that goes back to Jack the Unatwatter attempting to unload Twitter to Google twice in the span of 2 years in order to free himself from government control, which he disagreed with organically, but not enough to stop it.
GOOG swatted both sales pitches aside -- Jack demanded a seat on Google's Board both times -- and so he left the mutt patsies in charge of Twatter while he disappeared into his smoked-out half-azz Buddhist billionaire bliss in Myanmar.
Hell has his name, no hoodie will shield his surprise.
It’s not about you. It’s about the displaced American workers. It’s their blood being shed, ie, livelihoods lost.
Dickweed. You actually trust the US Government with protecting Americans and their data? Moron...
Well stated.
Thanks for stepping up with a specific. I can see that. Now what if he doesn’t get elected and there is blood in the streets and he says I told you so. Or fo you not think that will happen?
I trust them to be bureaucrats, you however trust the Chinese Communist Party and the PLA more.
Oh thanks for the personal insults - just what one expects from you lot.
Very well stated.
😂
