After an assassination attempt on Donald Trump at a political rally on Saturday, some prominent business leaders widely expected to support him, including X CEO Elon Musk and hedge fund manager Bill Ackman, officially endorsed him for president.
"Last time America had a candidate this tough was Theodore Roosevelt," Musk said on X, admiring how quickly Trump, one ear bloodied, rose from the ground after his security detail tackled him to keep him safe. Ackman, who had in recent months voiced support for Trump ever more openly, announced his formal support and said he would be making a more detailed endorsement soon.
