Elon Musk’s Controversial Chat with Tucker Carlson Sparks Outrage “Nobody Has Tried To Kill Kamala”

Elon Musk shared what he called an “Off-the-Cuff Conversation” with Tucker Carlson on Twitter, where the two made controversial comments about Vice President Kamala Harris and President Joe Biden. This candid exchange, which was meant to be humorous, struck a nerve with many who found the comments unsettling, especially given their casual approach to discussing political figures in such a manner.

The brief, 14-second clip captures Musk and Carlson making remarks that many have found offensive or inappropriate. Here’s how the exchange went down:

Musk opened the conversation with a provocative statement, saying, “Nobody’s even bothering to try to kill Kamala, because it’s pointless. What do you achieve?” Carlson casually agreed, replying, “No, it’s totally fine.” Musk then added, “Just find another puppet,” to which Carlson responded, “Exactly,” followed by both men laughing uncontrollably. The banter continued as Musk noted that “nobody’s trying to kill Joe Biden,” describing the notion as “impossible.” Carlson wrapped up the exchange with, “It would be pointless.”

Almost immediately after Musk posted the video, social media users reacted, with many expressing discomfort over the tone and content of the conversation. Some found the remarks dismissive, even cavalier, about the lives of public officials, while others felt it was in poor taste.

This is not the first time either Musk or Carlson has stirred up controversy with their commentary. Musk’s previous Twitter posts have often made headlines, whether they involve his thoughts on politics, technology, or even his companies like Tesla and SpaceX. Carlson, a conservative media personality, is similarly no stranger to controversy, frequently making waves with his outspoken views on current events.

For many, the real question is whether these remarks were intended as humor, social commentary, or something more serious. Musk has a history of pushing the boundaries of public conversation, while Carlson’s provocative style has consistently drawn both support and criticism. Their latest exchange adds fuel to the ongoing debates around free speech, social responsibility, and the role of high-profile individuals in setting an example for public discourse.

As Musk continues to use Twitter as his main platform to communicate directly with his followers, his influence is undeniably powerful. This incident, raises questions about the tone and responsibility of public figures, especially when discussing topics as sensitive as the lives of elected officials.

Elon Musk is all in.
