An account called Disology shared a poorly drawn Musk with the words 'being mean to my cars is tewwowism,' above him next to a news article discussing the gesture he made that many believe was a Nazi salute.

In an unsuccessful final attempt to help the Republican candidate win, the billionaire offered $20 to every person who took a picture with someone else while holding up a picture of Schimel and giving a 'thumbs up.'
