Shortly after Donald Trump, the presumed Republican nominee, was hurried off stage with secret service agents after being hit by gunfire at a Pennsylvania rally on Saturday, Elon Musk announced on X that he now officially endorses the candidate.

“I fully endorse President Trump and hope for his rapid recovery,” Musk wrote on the X platform.

Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, posted a picture of Trump pumping his fist while the American flag is behind him and secret service agents are scurrying to keep him safe in a different post.

Musk also likened Trump to 1912 presidential candidate Theodore Roosevelt, who escaped an attempted murder in 1912.

In Butler County, where the rally was held, the district attorney reported that at least one rallygoer was dead and two others were critically ill.

The gunman himself, identified as Thomas Matthew Crooks, who killed by secret service agents after he opened fire.

Before Saturday’s gathering, Musk had made it clear that he opposed President Joe Biden’s return to the White House, even if he hadn’t officially endorsed Trump.
