James O'Brien reacts to Elon Musk's salute
Elon Musk has defended making an 'awkward hand gesture' at Trump's inauguration that some have likened to a Nazi salute. James O'Brien and his listeners are broadly unconvinced. While addressing a crowd of MAGA supporters during a celebration of President Donald Trump's inauguration, the influential billionaire made a gesture putting his right hand on his chest before raising it it in the air (01:22). Then he turned and made the same hand gesture to the crowd behind him. He drew intense criticism and the gesture was branded a 'Nazi salute' by some viewers. But he defended himself today, stating that his opponents need ābetter dirty tricksā and that the āeveryone is Hitler attack is sooo tiredā. The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), an organisation founded to combat anti-Semitism said the gesture was āan awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi saluteā. Musk's gesture was aimed at a crowd of Trump supporters at the Capital One Arena in Washington D.C. as part of celebrations following Donald Trump's inauguration as the 47th President of the United States earlier today.

We're now in Trump Time so January 20 feels like it was six years ago, but James O'Brien has a really good take here on the Musk Nazi salute thing "If you don't think it was a Nazi salute, why don't you do it at parent's night (...) and see what happens?" www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXF9...
Hang onā¦ his gesture had āno meaningāā¦? As a British radio jock suggested the other day, try doing that at your next school board meeting, or in your workplace. See how that explanation holds up. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXF9...

"If you dont think it was a Nazi salute [...] just do it now, if you're at work and see what happens. I think that's probably the best way to test it. Make sure you do it twice, make sure you hit your chest first before you throw your arm in here" www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXF9... #Musk #Nazi
