Calling it "crazy," Musk suggested that the search engine might be censoring news related to Donald Trump ahead of the US presidential elections in November.

Musk also shared a post from a user who claimed that Google was only showing "positive" prompts for searches on "why censorship is." The user provided a screenshot and said, "When you type 'why censorship is' into Google search, the majority of suggestions are pro-censorship."

Starlink CEO Elon Musk shared posts alleging that Google failed to show results on an assassination attempt against Donald Trump. Reacting to claims that Google was controlled by Democrats, Musk warned of potential trouble for election interference.
