    The first bit of pay to win verification and impersonation was the most hilarious part of Elon’s Twitter.

    Deleted my account after that.

        Its true. He claims he was “somewhere in Texas” during the assassination. Its one of those events where everybody remembers where they were when they heard the news, but he does not.

      He definitely didn’t say “Iraq too”. I’ve heard the clip and seen the video. He said something like “heh, Iraq…” And continues on. As much as people want to make this slip up into some full blown admission of guilt it’s simply not what happened. The most I’m willing to accept is that it was a Freudian slip.

      Edit: After re listening to the clip, I can see why people say he says “Iraq too,” it’s not as clear cut as I remember. Given the way he jokes about his age afterwards I wouldn’t see it as a confession though, worst case just a joke in poor taste about a slip of the tongue.
