Elon Musk added to the buzz surrounding his controversial statements about President Donald Trump being linked to the Jeffrey Epstein files by sharing a fresh meme on Thursday night.
An X user employed the handshake meme, originating from the 1987 movie Predator, capturing the moment when Arnold Schwarzenegger and Carl Weathers clasp hands.
It’s used to symbolize when two disparate communities come together, akin to a Venn diagram.
In this case Weathers’ arm was labeled ‘Elon does ketamine’ while Schwarzenegger’s was labeled ‘Trump on Epstein’s list.’
Together they were shown as ‘X active users’ as the internet was in a flurry over Musk and Trump’s fiery fight.
Musk shared the meme Thursday night, labeling it with a laughter and bullseye emoji.
Last week, before Musk and Trump’s dramatic break-up, The New York Times reported on the billionaire Tesla CEO’s alleged drug use.
The report mentioned his supposed excessive usage of ketamine, a drug often used for enhancing mental health but comically referred to as a ‘horse tranquilizer’ due to its use in veterinary medicine.
During Musk’s Oval Office send-off on Friday, the departing DOGE leader brushed off The Times’ report, by claiming the newspaper was wrong about ‘Russiagate.’

Elon Musk, seen at the Conservative Political Action Conference in February, joked about his ketamine use, while also continuing to spread the Trump-Epstein, in a social media post Thursday night

The billionaire Tesla CEO shared the handshake meme where people thinking ‘Elon does Ketamine’ and ‘Trump on Epstein’s List’ came together on his platform X, the site formerly known as Twitter
Trump grinned and laughed as he watched Musk’s display.
Less than a week later, Musk was making the claim that the president was ‘in the Epstein files.’
‘Time to drop the really big bomb,’ Musk posted to X. ‘@RealDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public,’ Musk wrote. ‘Have a nice day, DJT!’
Epstein was a billionaire pedophile who committed suicide in prison in 2019.
Trump pledged to release the files related to Epstein, with Attorney General Pam Bondi putting out some pages in February, but most of that information was already in the public domain.
‘Mark this post for the future. The truth will come out,’ Musk added.
Asked for comment, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told the Daily Mail in a statement: ‘This is an unfortunate episode from Elon, who is unhappy with the One Big Beautiful Bill because it does not include the policies he wanted.’
‘The President is focused on passing this historic piece of legislation and making our country great again,’ Leavitt added.

President Donald Trump ignored shouted questions about Elon Musk wildly claiming the president was in the Epstein files as he hosted members of the Fraternal Order of Police in the State Dining Room Thursday room – amid his war with Musk
Trump didn’t directly respond to Musk’s Epstein charge, instead posting what amounted to a shrug on Truth Social, while also continuing to back the ‘big, beautiful bill.’
‘I don’t mind Elon turning against me, but he should have done so months ago,’ Trump wrote. ‘This is one of the Greatest Bills ever presented to Congress.’
Later he ignored shouted questions from reporters on Musk’s Epstein charge as he hosted the National Fraternal Order of Police executive board in the State Dining Room.
A source familiar with the issue pointed out to the Daily Mail that ‘everyone knows President Trump kicked Jeffrey Epstein out of his Palm Beach Golf Club.’
‘The Administration itself released Epstein files with the President’s name included. This is not a new surprise Elon is uncovering. Everyone already knew this,’ the source continued.
The source added: ‘If Elon truly thought the President was more deeply involved with Epstein, why did he hang out with him for six months and say he “loves him as much as a straight man can love a straight man?”‘
Musk kept on going through much of Thursday, using a raised eyebrow emoji to highlight an X post that detailed a quote Trump once gave on Epstein, who was found to be a serial pedophile.
Musk used the same emoji and shared a clip from MSNBC that showed a 1992 party that both Trump and Epstein attended.
The handshake meme came even later Thursday night.
