Elon Musk and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz are exchanging barbs as Election Day 2024 approaches, with Walz accusing Musk of "dodging like a coward" and Musk most recently likening Walz to a clown face emoji.

During his campaign in Wisconsin on Tuesday, Walz jokingly called Musk Trump's former running mate.

The billionaire business tycoon has endorsed Trump and is campaigning for him.

"Elon is on stage, jumping around, and skipping like a dipshit," Walz said.

Millions of dollars from Musk are being used by the America PAC to give $1 million daily to individuals who have signed a petition supporting the First and Second Amendments.

Musk tweeted that @America PAC will be giving away $1M daily to someone in swing states who signed their petition supporting free speech and the right to bear arms from now until Nov 5. He wants to ensure that everyone in swing states is aware of this and believes it will help.

As president, Trump intends to form a "government efficiency commission," and Musk has agreed to lead the committee.

"Elon Musk is the wealthiest man in the world and has pledged to help Donald Trump win the election," Walz stated. "Donald Trump has promised to appoint Elon Musk as the head of government regulations for his businesses."

Musk is mocking Walz in posts on X.

"You're gonna lose, @Tim_Walz," Musk tweeted, along with the clown emoji, in response to a clip of Walz's remarks. "Saving the American people from the torture of hearing you speak for 4 years was worth it," he added, concluding the post with the tears of joy emoji.
