Elon does the Nazi salute

He did look less dominant for a while.
But I don't think post mid-terms, when actual primary campaigning started, he was ever trailing DeSantis.
I might be wrong.
EDIT: 538 only goes back to January 2023.

Trump is up by 10 at that point, and DeSantis never closes the distance.
It would be nice to see November, December, 2022.
Watch the video in this link, where Musk has come to the defence of the extreme right wing parties and violent racist organizations as well in Germany, France and The UK.
Musk is defending a violent Neo-Nazi racist leader in the UK who is in prison. Musk has called for his release from prison. In other words he is a Racist< Ne-Nazi supporter!!
Elon Musk posts multiple Nazi-related ‘jokes’ after salute backlash
The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), a New York-based organization that campaigns against antisemitism, came to Musk’s defence following the backlash, but now they’re changing their tune after Musk’s recent posts on X.
They had initially claimed that Musk “made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute.”
ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt is now condemning the statements Musk made on X Thursday, writing, “We’ve said it hundreds of times before and we will say it again: the Holocaust was a singularly evil event, and it is inappropriate and offensive to make light of it.”
“@ElonMusk, the Holocaust is not a joke,” Greenblatt added.
ADL’s main account on X shared a statement after Greenblatt addressed Musk’s latest posts.
“Making inappropriate and highly offensive jokes that trivialize the Holocaust only serve to minimize the evil and inhumanity of Nazi crimes, denigrate the suffering of both victims and survivors and insult the memory of the six million Jews murdered in the Shoah,” the ADL group wrote in a statement.
As of this writing, Musk has yet to address the latest criticism from the ADL.
Earlier this week, the image of Musk making the gesture at Trump’s inauguration rally was projected onto Tesla’s Gigafactory in Berlin-Brandenburg.
The image featured Musk making the gesture alongside the words “Heil Tesla.” U.K. activist group Led By Donkeys and Germany’s Centre for Political Beauty were behind the display, and posted a shared Instagram post from the two groups. “Tesla Gigafactory, Berlin. #LedByDonkeys,” the caption read.
Led By Donkeys also shared a mini-doc on Instagram Thursday, with the caption, “The world’s richest man, Elon Musk, is promoting the far right in Europe. Don’t buy @TESLAMotors. Location: Tesla Gigafactory, Berlin.”
Musk has not publicly responded or reacted to the projection of the image on the Tesla factory.

I am fully aware of the kind of elitist racism and obsessiveness you have about Jews.
You are absolutely psychotic when you choose to use Musk's bullshit as an excuse to launch yet more of your endless diatribe about Jews.
Another clown who can't comment on Musk without trying to make it about his obsession. But congrats on a post putting together more that two words.
It's not the Democrats who made him do the exact same motion of a fascist salute on live TV.
And yet another part of the racist obsession claiming it's racist to think the 10 million Israelis should have the right of self determination which also ignore that the 2 million Arabs included in that number overwhelmingly want to remain Israelis as well.
And another pathetic attempt to turn every threat into part of your obsession.
Global news being disingenuous here...Watch the video in this link, where Musk has come to the defence of the extreme right wing parties and violent racist organizations as well in Germany, France and The UK.

The whole "Nazi salute" is such a silly side show.
The age of common sense is back.

Why are you so against giving Palestinians basic human rights and equality?
Is it your Islamaphobia that makes you call them 'Arabs'?
How messed up is it that you are now defending the team that does the salute?
You're quoting a partisan report that cherry picks data. I prefer to look at real unbiased facts. Here you go.
Median household income U.S. 2023 | Statista
The average salary in the United States has been increasing since 1990. Generally speaking, the median income increases each year.

Under Obama real household incomes rose on average about 0.9% per year. Under Trump they rose 1.8%, 1.3% and then a whopping 7.2% before Covid hit and they dropped 2%.

They are just a data visualization company and they dont care about the quality of their sources.
I posted a report from the US Congressional Joint Economic Committee.
That is a credible source.
But back to topic, let us use your source.
Since Obama inherited a recession let us ignore incomes between 2008 to 2010, as it is understandable that incomes would go down in that time.
But how did it fare after that?
Between 2011 and 2016 incomes rose 12.8% under Obama. A strong recovery.
Trump inherited this strong economy and between 2016 and 2020, incomes rose 8.2%. Let us leave out COVID as we did for the recession.
Therefore the economy performed better under Obama than under Trump.
Not to mention Obama's job with the economy was tougher.
