JCPA Condemns Elon Musk’s Fascist Salute at Trump Inauguration Rally

Amy Spitalnick, CEO of the Jewish Council for Public Affairs, shared the following statement in response to Elon Musk’s outrageous behavior at a public inauguration rally today for President Trump: 

“Elon Musk knows precisely what he was doing with his fascist Roman salute at today’s Trump rally – which follows his explicit embrace of far-right parties and policies. If you’re surprised, you haven’t been paying attention. 

We know precisely where this extremist behavior leads, normalizing and emboldening avowed neo-Nazis and white supremacists who take this as a stamp of approval for their targeting of Jews, immigrants, people of color, and so many others.”
