Boston Celtics star Al Horford's sister Anna Horford was stunned by Elon Musk's gesture at the presidential inauguration of President Donald Trump on Monday. The billionaire, who was speaking to Trump's supporters at the Capital One Arena in Washington DC, seemed very ecstatic during his speech.
During the speech, Musk thumped his chest with his right hand and spread his hand forward with his palm facing down.
Stunned by Elon Musk's controversial gesture, Anna Horford posted a picture from CNN Live on her Instagram story.
"Elon Musk just did a f***ing Nazi salute on national television," she wrote in bold red letters in the caption of her IG story.

She made another post on her IG story with several stunned face emojis in the caption.
Moreover, Horford did not stop there. She made another post on her X, formerly known as "Twitter."
"Elon Musk just did a Nazi salute on national television," she wrote four times in the post reposting a video of Musk doing the gesture.
In her other post, Anna called the tech billionaire a "loser" and a "dangerous" person.
"What an enormous f***ing loser. I’d laugh if he wasn’t so dangerous," she wrote.
Anna Horford is not alone in alleging Musk of the fascist salute. According to The Guardian, several prominent names have alleged Musk to have done so.
According to ADL (Anti-Defamation League), a Hitler salute consists of "raising an outstretched right arm with the palm down." Moreover, Kamala Harris had previously called Trump a fascist, which was bound to make Musk's gesture controversial.
