His message was direct, succinct, and, of course, classic Musk: “ABC’s bias is off the charts. Let’s take ‘em down. #BoycottABC.” And with that, the gauntlet had been thrown.
It all began with the much-anticipated Trump vs. Harris presidential debate, where tensions were already running high. The moderators, David Muir and Linsey Davis, found themselves fact-checking Donald Trump mid-sentence more times than Musk fact-checks his engineers at SpaceX. And while Trump took offense at being interrupted, Harris, on the other hand, was criticized for receiving what many on the right considered “softball” questions. The result? Chaos on stage and an online frenzy once the event ended.
Supporters of both candidates took to social media to accuse ABC of being biased in favor of the other side. Trump fans slammed the network for “rigging” the debate in Harris’s favor, while Harris’s supporters accused ABC of not pressing Trump hard enough on his claims. It was a political mess, but for Elon Musk, it was more than just bad moderation—it was a call to action.
Musk, who has never shied away from voicing his opinions on everything from electric cars to space travel to the color of his Tesla Cybertruck (it’s still up for debate), quickly jumped into the post-debate conversation. But rather than simply critiquing the moderators or bemoaning the state of political discourse, Musk decided to go all-in and start a movement of his own.
“ABC’s coverage is as outdated as gas-powered cars,” Musk tweeted. “Time to boycott this biased network. We’re better off with no debates than with these circus shows. Let’s take ‘em down.”
