Reactions

After Musk’s tweet and Fauci’s response the situation has drummed up attention from both sides of the aisle. Many Democratic lawmakers praised Fauci and his contributions to society. While Republicans seemed to feel just the opposite as Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), stated “I affirm your pronouns Elon.”

The White House also came out to respond to Musk’s comments. Unsurprisingly slamming the comments, as White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre called the tweets “disgusting.”
