Elon Musk has claimed billionaires like Bill Gates are afraid of a Donald Trump win because it would lead to the release of the names of associates of Sean 'Diddy' Combs and Jeffrey Epstein.
The Tesla CEO, 50, made the unfounded claim in an interview with Tucker Carlson on the Musk-owned social media app X.
'I think part of why Kamala's getting so much support is that if Trump wins, that Epstein client list is gonna become public,' Musk said.
'And some of those billionaires behind Kamala are terrified of that outcome.'
Musk named Microsoft founder Gates and LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman as two of the billionaires who supposedly fear the release of Epstein's client list.
Gates and Hoffman are major Democrat donors.

'He's terrified of a Trump victory,' Musk added of Hoffman, who worked for him on PayPal decades ago.
'He's certainly ideologically unaligned with Trump anyway, but I think he's actually concerned about the Epstein situation... that the DOJ might actually move forward.'
When asked about alleged video evidence of Epstein's crimes, Musk replied: 'Between Diddy and Epstein, there is probably several thousand hours of footage here.'
The SpaceX boss said it was 'mind-blowing' that January 6 rioters were prosecuted while Epstein's associates have gone unpunished.
Musk said there was a 'strong overlap' between the Epstein client list and Kamala's '100 puppet masters.'
DailyMail.com has contacted representatives of Gates and Hoffman for comment.
Gates has previously stated 'his deep regret for ever meeting with Epstein, who he met with for discussions regarding philanthropy only.'

The New York Times reported that Gates befriended Epstein after the pedophile was convicted of sex crimes.
It was claimed that Gates and Epstein met numerous times beginning in 2011. In fact, Gates visited Epstein at least three times at Epstein's New York City townhouse, according to The Times.
Meanwhile Hoffman visited Epstein's private Caribbean Island after he was convicted of sex crimes – asking the pedophile billionaire to help raise funds for MIT.
Hoffman traveled to the island with Joi Ito, the then-MIT Media Lab director, who had asked Hoffman and Epstein to help raise funds for MIT.
Musk and Hoffman, a big Democratic donor, worked together at PayPal over two decades ago but their friendship that has been strained by their political differences.
After Trump survived an assassination attempt in Pennsylvania, Musk claimed 'the Reid Hoffman’s [sic] of the world got their dearest wish … but then the martyr lived.'
Musk and Carlson's chat began with the former Fox News host wondering what would happen to Musk if Trump loses, with both beginning to cackle.

'If Trump loses, you're f***ed, dude,' Carlson said, with Elon laughing along and agreeing.
'If he loses, I'm f***ed,' he affirmed. 'How long do you think my prison sentence is going to be? Will I see my children? I don't know.'
Musk and Carlson both said that if Harris beats Trump in November, it will be the last election.
Both joked that Harris and Joe Biden are figureheads for a movement rather than substantial politicians.
'Kamala is gonna say whatever the teleprompter is gonna say,' Musk claimed.
He also told Carlson of his concerns that religion has been replaced in society with the 'woke mind virus.'
The interview comes on the back of Musk's appearance at a Trump rally on Saturday in Pennsylvania.

Musk jumped wildly with his fists in air as he joined Donald Trump on stage for the first time.
The dramatic appearance by the Tesla and SpaceX boss came as Trump returned to the Butler Farm Show grounds in Pennsylvania, where he survived an attempted assassination three months ago.
After leaping up and down, Musk told the huge crowd: 'America is the home of the brave and the true test of someone’s character is how they behave under fire.
'We had one president who couldn’t climb a flight of stairs and another who was fist-pumping after getting shot! FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT!'
Musk, wearing a black baseball hat, urged supporters to vote, and register to vote, and to get others to 'vote right now'.
'I'm being repetitive for a reason,' he said. 'Honestly you want to be a pest. Fight, fight, fight! Vote, vote, vote!'
Musk's appearance at Trump's rally in Butler was the first time he has taken the stage at a political rally.
The billionaire was inspired to endorse Trump publicly after the failed assassination attempt of the former president at Butler on July 13.
