An unsuccessful attempt on Donald Trump has made many think about security. Elon Musk, often compared to "Iron Man" Tony Stark, decided to create his fight.
Musk talked about his desire to create a "flying metal armor" in response to X Twitter users' concern about his safety after the incident with Trump.
Maybe it's time to build that flying metal suit of armor

"You should also strengthen your security @elonmusk," wrote X user Whole Mars Catalog.
Yen Miles Cheong, Musk's friend, also asked him to "triple" his protection.
Dangerous times ahead.
Two people (separate occasions) have already tried to kill me in the past 8 months. They were arrested with guns about 20 mins drive from Tesla HQ in Texas.

"If they can come after Trump, they can come after you."
After the shooting, Musk "fully supported" Donald Trump as the Republican presidential candidate.
"I fully support President Trump and hope for his speedy recovery."
After the shooting, Musk hinted that the shooting occurred due to incompetence of the Secret Service and accused Secret Service head Kimberley Chitl of the incident.
Extreme incompetence or it was deliberate. Either way, the SS leadership must resign. https://t.co/0vYGrj6yuH

"Extreme incompetence or it was deliberate. Either way, the SS leadership must resign," Musk wrote.
Elon Musk also donated an undisclosed amount of money to America PAC, a political committee working to elect Donald Trump as president. Earlier, the billionaire wrote on X that he did not plan to make donations to any candidate.
