Google users searching for the attempted assassination of former President Trump are having difficulty accessing information…
Instead, the website autocomplete feature omitted the results of the July 13 shooting, prompting accusations the Big Tech giant is trying to influence the presidential election.
Screenshots from Google instead showed recommended search results of the failed assassination of Ronald Reagan and the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand, the shooting of Bob Marley and the failed attempt on former President Ford.
Even the keywords “Trump assassination attempt” yielded no additional terms from Google, according to users.
“Big Tech is trying to interfere in the election AGAIN to help Kamala Harris,” Donald Trump Jr. wrote on X. “We all know this is intentional election interference from Google. Truly despicable.”
A Google spokesperson told FOX Business that there was no “manual action taken on these predictions.”
“Our systems have protections against Autocomplete predictions associated with political violence, which were working as intended prior to this horrific event occurring,” the spokesperson wrote. “We’re working on improvements to ensure our systems are more up to date.”
The company spokesperson said the autocomplete feature is “just a tool to help people save time” and they can still search for anything they want.
“Following this terrible act, people turned to Google to find high quality information – we connected them with helpful results, and will continue to do so,” the company said.
X owner Elon Musk chimed in on the surprising results.
“They’re getting themselves into a lot of trouble if they interfere with the election,” he wrote in a follow-up post.
