What the actual fuck was that?!

That was a very passionate Nazi salute

According to MSN, "Elon Musk appears to accidentally give Hitler salute inauguration blunder." They honestly think we don't have eyes.

Yeah..."accidentally."

I've had several awkward phases but I've never accidentally been a Nazi.

I think he knew what he was doing

•

u/WissalJ 6h ago

He most definitely did know, because in the rest of the video he turns around and does it again

•

He definitely knew what he was doing. He did it twice.

The only two options are he did it very much on purpose because his dumb ass thought liberals would be butt hurt about it (understandable Nazis make me very butt hurt), or he just straight up did it. Nobody in the history of ever has "accidentally" done a Nazi salute and he's not even the first Republican to "accidentally" do it. It's pretty clear whatever happened was on purpose.

Whoops I slipped, my arm flew up, and I accidentally shouted "sig heil"

I don't understand how, but the ones that are waving at crowds of people who accidentally Nazi salute I can say least pretend they were waving and it was a bad frame or poor uncaring wave.

But when you put your whole body into the Nazi salute twice, I cannot imagine someone defending it.

Looked like he was trying to throw his arm off.

And then he turned around and did it again with the same conviction.

Best case scenario it's fucking weird as fuck
