Musk came under fire after making hand gestures during a speech at Donald Trump’s inauguration as the 47th US president. The gestures reportedly resembled a Nazi salute, sparking widespread backlash.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Elon Musk is "being falsely smeared" after the tech billionaire was accused of giving two fascist salutes at Donald Trump 's "presidential parade" on Monday.

But the latest hysteria came after billionaire Tesla founder and close Trump supporter Elon Musk gave a speech at the inaugural parade held at Capital One Arena following the swearing in ceremony. During the speech, while standing behind the presidential podium, Musk made an awkward gesture that the left quickly claimed was a Nazi salute.

Elon Musk pounded his fist to his chest and extended his right arm into the air during a speech Monday, which many have equated to a Nazi salute—while defenders say it was accidental.

Elon Musk has seemingly done the unthinkable and shown his knowledge of Nazi history is far deeper than the ADL would like the public to believe.

"It looked really bad to a lot of us in the Jewish community. And it was being celebrated by white nationalist groups," said Tyler Gregory, CEO of San Francisco's Jewish Community Relations Council.
