Washington: Tesla and SpaceX billionaire Elon Musk called former US President Donald Trump’s “Truth Social” app as a “Trumpet” of “right-wing echo chamber”.
The world’s richest man with a net worth of $219 billion said he bought Twitter to make it “maximally trusted and inclusive”. Musk and the former President have traded jabs in the past.
The billionaire slammed Trump’s social media app, Truth Social, in a recent interview with Financial Times of London, the Business Insider reported on Friday.
“It is essentially a right-wing echo chamber,” Musk said.
“It might as well be called Trumpet.” The billionaire said he bought Twitter in order to avoid the site becoming a counterpart to ‘Truth Social’.
