Kim Kardashian is facing flak online after promoting Elon Musk’s products, with some saying that her association with the Tesla billionaire was a signal she was supporting President-elect Donald Trump.
Kardashian, 44, has made headlines for a series of social media posts alongside robots made by Musk’s companies and a custom Tesla Model S car she owns.
Many online commenters interpreted the posts as a show of support for the incoming Republican president, who Musk has formed an alliance with in recent months, donating $200 million toward his presidential campaign and getting appointed to co-chair a board looking to shrink the size of the federal government.
Another made reference to Kardashian’s advocacy for Erik and Lyle Menendez, writing, ‘I thought you only made friends with convicted murderers you try to set free.’
Going topless under a puffy black jacket, The Kardashians star sat on the robot’s lap as they posed in the driver’s seat of her custom Tesla Model S car in the series of images posted Tuesday.
Kardashian — who recently went makeup-free on social media — was shocked as the robot was able to complete the gesture.
Just days ago the star was cruising down the PCH in her brand-new futuristic ride on Thursday when a cop pulled her over for her tinted front windshield, sources told TMZ.
Apparently, the tint was too dark for California‘s vehicle regulations.
