He posted this on Bluesky yesterday:

"Just when you think Donald Trump cannot sink lower or be more shameful, today he's blaming Ukraine for the war and calling Zelinsky a dictator, when he knows perfectly well that Putin's constant re-elections are put-up jobs."

He's not the kind of guy who posts just to get people to like him; he wants to remind anyone MAGA who think they like his writing that they haven't got it. Musk also has a history of reading and failing to get the basic message from the author; that may well include King's work.
