You can tell that liberals all across our great nation are having a hard time dealing with the fact that Donald Trump is now, officially, the 47th president of our great nation. As a result they are doing whatever they can to attack and assault him and those who are closely associated with him. A good case in point is how CNN anchors on Monday implied that Tesla CEO Elon Musk made a Nazi salute while delivering a speech before a crowd of enthusiastic Trump supporters on Inauguration Day.
Musk, who was super pumped about the day’s activities, took the stage at Capitol One Arena where he told those in attendance, “This is what victory feels like.”
“And this was no ordinary victory. This was a fork in the road of human civilization. There are elections that come and go. Some elections are important, some are not, but this one really mattered and I just want to say thank you for making it happen,” Musk stated.
Musk then said, “My heart goes out to you,” before he mimed the act of throwing his heart to the crowd. “It is thanks to you that the future of civilization is assured. We’re going to have safe cities, secure borders, sensible spending, basic stuff and we’re going to take DOGE to mars.”

Only evil, vile propagandists like the folks who work for CNN would attempt to twist an innocent gesture into a sign of hate and oppression. And what is the obsession the modern-day leftist news media has with Hitler and Nazis? Everything they disagree with is connected to these two things. It’s sort of disturbing when you think about how much time they devote to daily thinking about Nazism.

CNN’s Erin Burnett and Kasie Hunt then interrupted Musk’s remarks on the network to discuss his “odd looking salute,” with Burnett promising to show viewers a screengrab of it.
“Yes, that salute was evocative of things that we have seen throughout history and of course we do want to bring it up to be able to take a little bit of a closer look,” Hunt responded, before pointing out that soon-to-be-head of the Department Of Government Efficiency started to dip a toe in politics in Europe too, including support for what’s being called Germany’s “far-right party.”
“This crowd, every single person here is paying attention and they are fully engaged,” Burnett went on to say during the segment before airing a clip of the salute. “He is a hero to them.
The CNN hosts were careful to avoid saying explicitly that Musk had performed a Nazi salute but heavily implied as much. After rolling the tape, Hunt says, “It was quick. I think our viewers are smart and they can take a look at that but it’s not something you typically see at American political rallies.”
Burnett agreed, adding, “It was quick, as you point out, but it was in a moment of intensity from him.” The inauguration day comments represent a return to form for the CNN hosts as media commentators repeatedly likened Trump to a fascist dictator during his first term and throughout the most recent campaign.
I think we know what the next four years are going to be like when it comes to the media, don’t we? Lies, lies, and more lies.
