Musk Shares Photo of What Is on His 'Bedside Table': 'The Leftist Will Lose Their Minds'
Elon Musk is sparking conversation on Twitter after posting a picture of items on the table next to his bed.
In a tweet early Monday morning, Musk wrote, “My bedside table.”
He shared a picture of a table with four open cans of caffeine-free Diet Coke and an open water bottle.
The New York Post pointed out what appeared to be a Tibetan Buddhist amulet on the table as well.
The table also held what the Post described as a “non-firing replica of George Washington’s flintlock pistol, lying in a wooden box whose open lid displayed an image of Emanuel Leutze’s painting of the first U.S. president crossing the Delaware River.”
Additionally, there was a “model replica of a Diamond Back .357 revolver from the ‘Deus Ex: Human Revolution’ video game,” according to the paper.

Firearms reporter Stephen Gutowski chimed in, “Four caffeine-free diet cokes, a commemorative flintlock pistol, and a toy revolver is a pretty unique esthetic.”

Not everyone was thrilled with his post. Sophia Nelson, an opinion writer at The Washington Post, tweeted, “This is the first tweet in my timeline when I woke up this morning. This is not normal. My guns are in proper holsters or carriers. Or in a gun bag. Is [Musk] afraid of someone?”
This is the first tweet in my timeline when I woke up this morning. This is not normal. My guns are in proper holsters or carriers. Or in a gun bag. Is @elonmusk afraid of someone? Get an alarm and guard security. You are one of the richest men on earth. https://t.co/eyyx4rqfWQ
