TMZ caught up with DC Thursday at LAX, where he said his emotions about the prez are already well-documented, but he emphasized ... "He's not starting off great, clearly."

Ts Madison is sounding off on Donald Trump's executive orders attacking transgender and Black communities ... saying no legal sanction can change the truth.

Matisyahu says Elon Musk most definitely did not make a Nazi salute at Donald Trump's inauguration ... he says it's just an example of Elon being a fish out of water.

The Jewish singer-songwriter, who voted for Trump this past election, tells TMZ ... Elon's controversial gesture certainly had all the elements of a Nazi salute, but the forceful arm movement was more about Elon not knowing how to act under the bright lights -- though he acknowledges how it looks out of context.

Matisyahu says musicians and performers are used to the attention and crowd energy that comes with such a big platform ... and Elon, being a "nerd," just didn't know how to channel the energy, because he's not used to being onstage.
