Larry David Confronted Elon Musk Over GOP Support After Uvalde Shooting: “Do You Just Want to Murder Kids?”

Larry David confronted Elon Musk over his support for the Republican Party at Endeavor chief Ari Emanuel’s wedding last year, according to Walter Isaacson’s new biography of the tech mogul, Elon Musk.
“Do you just want to murder kids in schools?” the comedian and Seinfeld co-creator reportedly asked Musk at the Hollywood super-agent’s nuptials to fashion designer Sarah Staudinger in France. “No, no … I’m anti-kid murder,” Musk, the Tesla Motors/X/SpaceX billionaire, is said to have replied.
“Then how could you vote Republican?” David followed up.
David, an Emanuel client who officiated the nuptials between the talent agent and Staudinger, Isaacson wrote, confirmed the confrontation to Isaacson, saying, “His tweets about voting Republican because Democrats were the party of division and hate were sticking in my craw. Even if Uvalde never happened, I probably would have brought it up because I was angry and offended.
