"This critique of X is invalid because it's from someone who critiques X"

This is of course completely fallacious non-logic. Of course criticism comes from people critical of a thing.

Is there a name for this? I've seen this quite regularly, especially on Musk and Trump.

Shall we coin it as the “Trusk Fallacy” perhaps?
