W. Kamau Bell on Trump-Musk alliance: 'People love a freak show'

Trump returned to Butler, Pennsylvania, this weekend to campaign, just months after an assassination attempt on his life there. He was accompanied by tech billionaire Elon Musk, who has become a prominent figure in Trump’s campaign. "They’ve played to the worst instincts of people," says W. Kamau Bell, Emmy-Award winning producer and comedian, out with a new digital video for Schlep Labs in support of Harris and Walz. During the rally, both Musk and Trump promoted dangerous conspiracy theories and misinformation. "People love a freak show,” says Bell.
