Musk hints at 69.420% as Trump leads Harris amid Biden backlash
Elon Musk stirred social media with a playful comment on platform X, hinting, “69.420% coming soon,” in response to a post highlighting Donald Trump’s betting market lead over Kamala Harris.
Musk’s comment came after Doge Designer noted that Trump was ahead with 67.0% compared to Harris’ 33.2%, alluding to a further increase in Trump’s lead.
Meanwhile, President Joe Biden faced backlash for allegedly referring to Trump supporters as “garbage” after a Trump rally incident involving comedian Tony Hinchcliffe.
During the rally, Hinchcliffe reportedly called Puerto Rico “an island of garbage,” to which Biden responded, “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters.”
This statement triggered sharp criticism from Republican figures and prompted a response from Trump on X.
The former president wrote, “Joe Biden calls our supporters ‘garbage.’ You can’t lead America if you don’t love the American People. Kamala Harris and Joe Biden have shown they are both unfit to be President of the United States.”
The White House later clarified Biden’s remarks, releasing a transcript showing that the president’s comments were directed at Hinchcliffe’s offensive rhetoric rather than at Trump supporters.
Biden took to X to expand on his comments, stating, “The hateful rhetoric about Puerto Rico as ‘garbage’ does not reflect American values.”
The combination of Musk’s comment and Biden’s controversy underscores how even seemingly offhand remarks can shape political narratives and stir online discourse as the election nears.
With tensions running high and social media amplifying every statement, both sides are leveraging these moments to energize their supporters in what promises to be a closely contested race.
