Trump says Elon Musk's takeover of 'Fake Twitter' is 'probably illegal' and claims the billionaire told him he'd always voted Republican in scathing post on his rival Truth Social network
Donald Trump has lashed out at Elon Musk, calling the billionaire's $44 billion Twitter takeover 'probably illegal' in a post on his own competing social media network, Truth Social.
In his post on Friday, Trump slammed Musk, claiming that he had lied when he recently said that he had previously voted Democrat but was switching his allegiance to the Republican Party.
'Gee, Elon Musk never told me that until now he only voted for Democrats. Actually, it was quite the contrary,' wrote Trump in his Truth Social post.
He continued: 'but now it seems, with all of his problems with a probably illegal purchase of a crummy phony account loaded company, Fake Twitter, he wants to be a Republican because the Dems are a 'Party of hate."
'I could have told him that a long time ago, but actually they are a Party of sickness, greed, corruption & absolute horrible policy,' added Trump. 'Good luck Elon, have fun!!!'
Trump did not explain what element of Musk's Twitter bid, which was accepted by the company's board in a legally binding contract, might be 'illegal'.
