One week ago, Elon musk tweeted "“And no one is even trying to assassinate Biden/Kamala,”

given his prominence and direct reference to assassinating Harris right before a shooting occurred, can he be legally linked to this assassination attempt?

I wish, but he's too rich for that to be possible. Too much plausible deniability.

Trump is a billionaire and was convicted on 34 counts.

Epstein had 600 million and was convicted.

musk loses legal battles regularly, maybe he'll lose this one too if the matter is brought up.

Yep. These people are fine with Gestapo tactics, if those tactics are in service of their side. Imagine Trump rounding people up based on their tweets.
