  • Billionaire Trump surrogate Elon Musk endorsed a post on Thursday which suggested Americans were too "retarded" to be hired for skilled jobs.

Elon Musk endorsed a post on X (formerly Twitter) that suggested Americans are "too retarded" to perform skilled jobs, sparking significant controversy. The post, which Musk liked, criticized the U.S. education system for failing to produce skilled workers, leading to a reliance on foreign labor. This endorsement drew sharp criticism from various quarters, including political figures and commentators, who accused Musk of promoting derogatory and offensive views about American workers. The incident has reignited debates about Musk's influence on social media, his views on education, and the broader implications for labor and immigration policies in the U.S. Critics argue that such statements not only demean American workers but also ignore the complexities of educational disparities and economic factors influencing job skills.
