Elon Musk is not taking things lightly anymore, and everything thrown at him would surely be something that the CEO will react to, even a screenshot from an alleged post by Donald Trump against him. The post appears online now, and users share screenshots of it online, and though it may not seem legitimate, it is still something against his person.

CARSON CITY, NEVADA- SEPTEMBER 4: Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla Motors, listens as Governor Brian Sandoval of Nevada speaks during a press conference at the Nevada State Capitol, September 4, 2014 in Carson City, Nevada.
Elon Musk Reacts to Donald Trump's Statement Against Him Online
A screenshot by Ashley Vance, a writer from Bloomberg, shows a statement made by Donald Trump via Truth Social, the platform that the former President started after getting kicked off mainstream social media. Here, it says that Trump is bashing all of Musk's projects, and without his support as the then President, Musk and his companies would be nothing.
The tech CEO saw this screenshot and reacted to it, saying the famous Gen Z acronym "Lmaooo" which means "laughing my a** out" after seeing the post. Musk also shared a GIF of "Grampa Simpson" from the hit television show, "The Simpsons," which depicts an old man who is mostly confused and angry about what is happening in the modern world.

Musk's Support for Trump's Twitter Return, Backlash Surfaces
Despite the previous support that Musk showed for the former President of the United States after his ban on most social media platforms online, he still gets bad publicity from these people, especially from Trump. The backlash from Trump may be insignificant as it is from a platform that not a lot is a part of, most of its content is still demeaning for Musk.
Donald Trump's Online Ban and Musk's Twitter
Musk initially expressed his plans as the future owner of Twitter back when the deal was still something that he looks forward to and openly discusses online. Here, the tech CEO addressed former President Donald Trump's online ban among most social media platforms, including Twitter, with the executive aiming to do something about it.
Once Musk already owns Twitter, he could do something about it and make people leave or return at his will, as the company would be private and it would all follow what he aims to do. In a discussion about it, Musk insists that Trump should be back on Twitter, and it is to give all sides an equal chance to express themselves online.
However, it seems that Musk and Twitter's fallout is something that would prevent this from happening under the current administration present.
Now, the statement Trump made against Elon Musk is something that may change the CEO's perspective on his reinstatement on the social media platform. While Musk may go the high road and be objective regarding his opinions on Trump's return after this incident, it may not be much of a factor as the Twitter deal is facing a dispute.
