What billionaire Elon Musk said after hearing Kamala Harris officially launched her campaign for president

Elon Musk mocked Vice President Kamala Harris status as Democratic presidential nominee in waiting by posting a video showing the former DA introducing a meeting by describing not just her preferred gender pronouns, but also what she was wearing.

'I am Kamala Harris; my pronouns are she and her, and I am a woman sitting at the table wearing a blue suit,' Harris says in introducing a roundtable meeting held at the Eisenhower Executive Office building in 2022.

'Imagine 4 years of this...,' Musk quipped in posting the clip showing Harris chairing the meeting, which was a discussion on the effects of abortion restrictions would have on the disabled community and had a large number of visually impaired people tuning in. 

Musk, 53, famously has little time for gender pronouns, declaring on X in July 2020: 'Pronouns suck.' A few months later he tweeted: 'I absolutely support trans, but all these pronouns are an esthetic nightmare.'

In another jab, he once wrote on X: 'My pronouns are Prosecute/Fauci.' 

Among those who have called out Musk for his attacks on pronouns, is Arizona Senator Mark Kelly, considered to be among the choices to be Harris' vice president. 

The former astronaut told Musk not to 'mock and promote hate toward' members of the LGBTQ community. 

'I strongly disagree. Forcing your pronouns upon others when they didn’t ask, and implicitly ostracizing those who don’t, is neither good nor kind to anyone,' Musk retorted.  

The Tesla founder has already declared his support for Donald Trump in the 2024 election, even though that was in the imagined contest with President Joe Biden, it's unlikely that Musk will change his mind. 

Prior to Biden's shocking announcement on Sunday that he would not be running, Musk tweeted about talking with his 'smartest friends' in San Francisco who were looking forward to voting for Trump and JD Vance in November. 

'I believe in an America that maximizes individual freedom and merit. That used to be the Democratic Party, but now the pendulum has swung to the Republican Party,' he wrote in a follow-up message. 

Despite Musk's tweet lacking context, Harris' words in 2022 were criticized by The Atlantic's Graeme Wood who wrote: 'In fact the whole introduction gives the unfortunate impression that Harris thinks the blind are not only visually impaired but so uninformed about politics that they do not know whether the vice president is a woman and whether she uses sex-typical pronouns.'

Musk took on Harris earlier this month when he accused the former prosecutor of lying about Trump supporting a national abortion ban.

'Donald Trump would ban abortion nationwide,” adding, “President @JoeBiden and I will do everything in our power to stop him and restore women’s reproductive freedom,' Harris wrote.

The SpaceX founder responded: 'He clearly said he would not do so in the debate.'

In April, Trump decreed that he felt as though abortion laws should be left up to the states. 

The then-Biden-Harris campaign refused to let up. 

'Elon Musk can Google it: Donald Trump wants to ban abortion nationwide, allow his allies to ban medication abortion and contraception, and use the power of the government to harass and punish women,' spokesman James Singer said. 

'This election is a choice between codifying Roe and protecting women’s fundamental rights, and allowing extreme politicians to interfere with medical decisions and rip away freedoms.'
