Dark MAGA began popping up on X somewhere around 2022, reported Newsweek. The movement calls for the return of Trump to the White House at all cost, and supporters often share black and blue images of Trump’s usual MAGA items to nod to its existence.
After Musk made the comment, #DarkMAGA started trending on X.
Elon Musk spoke for the first time at a Donald Trump rally, telling a massive crowd in Butler, PA that the election was a “must-win situation.”
“As you can see, I am not just MAGA, I’m dark MAGA,” Musk, wearing a black Make America Great Again hat, told the crowd.
The rally was Trump’s first in Butler since he survived an assassination attempt there in July. Shortly after the shooting, Musk endorsed Trump, citing his response to the attack.
In his remarks, he referred to that moment.
Musk said, “The true test of someone’s character is how they behave under fire. And we had one president who couldn’t climb a flight of stairs, and another who was fist bumping after getting shot. ‘Fight, fight, fight.’ Blood coming down the face.”
He added, “America is the home of the brave, and there’s no truer test than courage under fire.”
Musk has been using his social media platform, X, to promote Trump and to warn of electing Kamala Harris, often in dire terms.
