Billionaire Elon Musk said on Thursday that Joe Biden was elected as US President in 2020 because people "wanted less drama" after Donald Trump.
"Biden's mistake is that he thinks he was elected to transform the country, but actually everyone just wanted less drama," Musk tweeted.
Musk didn't clarify what he meant by "drama," but Trump's presidency between 2017 and 2021 involved being impeached in the House of Representatives, provoking an attempted coup at the US Capitol in January, and disseminating disinformation which led him to be removed from Twitter.
