Excited Elon Musk JUMPS onstage to join Trump in Butler as he reenacts the former president’s ‘fight, fight, fight’ moment after he was shot
Tesla boss Elon Musk jumped onto the stage with his fists in the air when he took the stage with Donald Trump for the first time.
It came as Trump returned to the grounds of the Butler Farm Show, where he survived an attempted murder two months ago.
Musk told the huge crowd: “America is the home of the brave and the true test of a person’s character is how he or she behaves under fire. We had a president who couldn’t climb stairs and another who was pumping his fists after being shot! FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT!
Wearing a black MAGA hat, Musk urged his supporters to vote and register to vote, as well as urging others to “vote now.”
“I have not repeated myself for nothing,” he said and begged those present not to vote anymore and to register as soon as possible.
“Honestly, you want to be a pest,” he said, “fight, fight, fight! Vote vote vote!’

“I didn’t know what the hell Starlink was,” Trump admitted.

Until his arrival, the meeting remained much more subdued as Trump paid tribute to Corey Comperatore, the man who was shot and killed the day of the shooting.
After Trump called for a moment of silence, opera singer Christopher Macchio sang “Ave Maria” and a bell rang at the same time the gunfire began on July 13.

At one point, the former president had to interrupt the meeting after a woman fainted. They shouted ‘we love Trump!’ and sang the national anthem for about four minutes while she was attended.
Comperatore’s widow and their children also returned to the meeting, along with members of the Trump family.
The beloved Republican also mentioned the other two victims who were shot and seriously injured that day.
One had returned to the rally, Trump revealed, but one was in the hospital and receiving treatment.

Although temperatures in Butler are only in the 60s, protesters have often collapsed at political rallies this election season due to heatstroke.
Earlier, as Trump took the stage, he said, “Thank you very much, we love Pennsylvania. And like I said…’
He had an immigration card on two large screens that was there when he was shot three months ago.
Trump said: I return to Butler to deliver a simple message. We’re going to make America great again, we’re going to win the elections. And for all Americans together: in just one month we will usher in a new golden age.
He added: ;For 16 seconds, time stood still as this evil monster unleashed pure evil. That bad guy failed.”
