During Donald Trump’s inauguration, billionaire Elon Musk delivered a controversial and unsettling speech that was compared to Dwight Schrute’s awkward speech in the series “The Office.”
Elon Musk’s speech during Donald Trump’s inauguration event sparked attention due to awkward statements and gestures. The incident was likened to the scene from the episode “Dwight’s Speech” in the series “The Office.”
In that episode, Dwight is invited to deliver a speech at a corporate event. He recites a text based on real speeches given by the Italian fascist dictator Benito Mussolini.
Much like Dwight, Musk animatedly rallied Trump’s supporters with statements like: “This wasn’t just any victory. It was a decisive moment for human civilization. Thanks to you, the future of civilization is secure.”
At the end of his speech, Musk raised his arms in a gesture reportedly resembling a Nazi salute, according to several media outlets worldwide.
