Tesla CEO Elon Musk mocked Joe Biden after the 2020 Democratic presidential candidate railed against video game designers and Silicon Valley leaders.
Musk shared a meme of the former vice president sniffing Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s hair. The meme was captioned, “Truth or Dare. 7 PM sharp presidential suite,” and is based on a viral photo of Biden in which he appears to be sniffing the wife of former defense secretary Ash Carter.

Biden, 77, ripped into Silicon Valley in an interview that was published Friday.
“At one point, one of the little creeps sitting around that table, who was a multi- — close to a billionaire — who told me he was an artist because he was able to come up with games to teach you how to kill people,” the Delaware Democrat said about a meeting he had with a tech leader.
The former vice president expressed a particular dislike for Zuckerberg and claimed that the Facebook founder could write false things and “be exempt from being sued,” unlike traditional media outlets.
“I’ve never been a big Zuckerberg fan. I think he’s a real problem,” he said.
Before he announced his 2020 bid, Biden was accused of inappropriate touching, including smelling, kissing, and rubbing, by several women. He addressed the allegations by saying, “I’m not sorry for any of my intentions. I’m not sorry for anything that I have ever done. I have never been disrespectful intentionally to a man or a woman.”
After he hopped on the campaign trail, the claims didn’t stop. An Iowa teacher told the Washington Examiner in September that Biden abruptly seized her hands and clung onto them without her permission and called the encounter “really uncomfortable.”
