Musk's endorsement came after multiple gunshots were fired in the former president's direction at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

"I just spoke to my father on the phone, and he is in great spirits," Trump Jr. said. "He will never stop fighting to save America, no matter what the radical left throws at him."
Trump's condition is unclear.
