Clinton Campaign Tweet on Trump, Russia 'Misleading Disinformation': Musk

Tesla CEO Elon Musk on Friday agreed with a Twitter user who suggested that Hillary Clinton's campaign tweeted "misleading disinformation" in the past that alleged a connection between former President Donald Trump and Russia.

"I have reported this tweet as misleading disinformation to the powers that be at @twitter. I would be interested to know if, when you receive control over the company, anything was done with this at any level. Pls advise soonest," Twitter user veeSPIKE wrote, addressing Musk while also sharing a tweet posted by Clinton in October 2016.

Musk replied: "You are absolutely correct. That tweet is a Clinton campaign hoax for which their campaign lawyer is undergoing a criminal trial." The billionaire announced earlier this month that his $44 billion acquisition of Twitter has been paused.
