Tesla CEO Elon Musk has expressed strong criticism of the recent criminal conviction of former President Donald Trump, describing the case as politically motivated and doing “great damage” to public trust in the American legal system. Musk's comments came in response to the conviction, which he deemed to be over a "trivial matter." Musk wrote on X, “If a former President can be criminally convicted over such a trivial matter – motivated by politics, rather than justice – then anyone is at risk of a similar fate.” His remarks came after Donald Trump became the first former US president to be convicted of a crime. Trump was found guilty of all 34 felony charges of falsifying business records related to a hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels by his then-personal lawyer Michael Cohen before the 2016 election. Hush Money Trial: Donald Trump Found Guilty on All 34 Counts, Becomes First President in US History to Be Convicted of Felony.
