@teslaownersSV hit back at the claims made by President Joe Biden, saying Elon Musk was permitted to work in the United States.
"Hey, @POTUS, you are outright lying about Elon Musk’s status. He was allowed to work legally."
Elon Musk responded to the allegations of him being in the United States illegally:
"I was on a J-1 visa that transitioned to an H1-B. They know this, as they have all my records. Losing the election is making them desperate."
Trevor Noah responded to Elon's post and trolled him, saying:
"Don’t listen to the haters, Elon, I get it. The government thought you were a student, but you identified as a worker 🙌🏽 #transitioning."
