Frei shared a news report wrote, "If this happens, it will be the beginning of Trump's reelection." Twitter CEO and the world's second richest person Elon Musk said while replying to a user that the firebrand Republican leader could secure a landslide victory if he gets arrested. Trump rejected that suggestion saying he does not care if he gets shot at since he would become “a martyr”.
