Elon Musk has once again found himself at the center of controversy, this time facing sharp criticism from the hosts of The View, who have labeled the show as “the world’s most depraved TV show” in light of recent events. This dramatic turn of events comes after a series of heated exchanges between Musk and the show’s co-hosts, particularly in response to his increasing influence and controversial actions.
The conflict escalated following Musk’s close ties with former President Donald Trump and his controversial role in government through the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Critics, including The View co-hosts, have accused Musk of wielding excessive power and influence over federal policies, particularly those affecting technology and public spending. In recent episodes, the hosts have openly mocked Musk, questioning his motives and ridiculing his decisions.
In a particularly notable episode, co-host Whoopi Goldberg quipped about Musk’s son, X Æ A-Xii, during a discussion about their appearance at a White House press conference. This led to backlash online, with many accusing the hosts of crossing a line by mocking a child. Critics took to social media to express their outrage, calling the comments “unnecessary” and “harsh,” further fueling the narrative that The View has become a platform for personal attacks rather than constructive dialogue.
While Musk has largely remained silent on specific criticisms from The View, he has indirectly addressed the broader narrative surrounding his influence. His supporters argue that his innovative contributions to technology and space exploration should be celebrated rather than vilified. However, Musk’s reputation has been marred by various controversies over the years, including accusations of promoting conspiracy theories and engaging in erratic behavior on social media.
