Elon Musk: Trump as the ‘Only Way’ to Preserve U.S. Democracy, Says Billionaire

[Social Media]

 

Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk recently expressed his belief that the future of American democracy hinges on former President Donald Trump winning the upcoming election. Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, took to the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, to share his controversial perspective, emphasizing that Trump is essential for the nation’s democratic survival.

 

"Very few Americans realize that, if Trump is NOT elected, this will be the last election," Musk declared. "Far from being a threat to democracy, he is the only way to save it!" 

 

Musk's comments center around a theory regarding immigration and voting patterns in the U.S. According to Musk, Democrats are hastening the naturalization process for undocumented immigrants to create a new voting bloc that would significantly favor their party in future elections.

 

He suggested that this influx of new voters would tip the scales, leaving Republicans at a permanent disadvantage. Musk elaborated on this idea by stating, "Let me explain: if even 1 in 20 illegals become citizens per year, something that the Democrats are expediting as fast as humanly possible, that would be about 2 million new legal voters in 4 years." He highlighted the delicate balance in swing states, adding, "The voting margin in the swing states is often less than 20 thousand votes. That means if the ‘Democratic’ Party succeeds, there will be no more swing states!!"

 

Musk's support for Trump extends to accusations against the current administration. He claimed that President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris are strategically relocating asylum-seekers to key battleground states like Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, and Arizona. According to Musk, this is a deliberate effort to influence future elections in favor of the Democratic Party.

 

The White House, along with the campaigns of Harris and Trump, has been contacted for responses to Musk’s statements. Immigration, an already contentious issue in American politics, has gained renewed prominence in the current campaign. Former President Trump has been particularly vocal about the subject, directing much of his ire toward Vice President Harris. Over the weekend, Trump intensified his criticism, calling for Harris to be impeached due to her handling of immigration policies.

 

"Kamala’s Illegal Migrants. It’s the biggest crime story of our time. She should resign or be IMPEACHED!" Trump wrote in a post on his Truth Social platform. His rhetoric didn’t stop there. While speaking at a campaign rally in Erie, Pennsylvania, Trump accused Harris of enabling violence through her policies, stating, "Hundreds of people have been murdered because of her action at the border, and thousands more will follow in rapid succession. She should be impeached and prosecuted for her actions."

 

Trump's criticisms came shortly after Harris made a visit to the southern U.S. border, a trip aimed at showcasing her stance on border security. While Harris has portrayed herself as tough on immigration, she has been critical of Trump’s approach to the issue, particularly his failure to pass a bipartisan border bill. During a rally in Nevada last month, Harris took direct aim at Trump, accusing him of talking tough but not following through.

 

"But Donald Trump doesn’t want to fix this problem. He talks a big game about a lot of things," Harris told the crowd. "He talks a big game about border security, but he does not walk the walk."

 

As the 2024 election draws closer, immigration is sure to remain a central issue, with both sides trading jabs over who is better equipped to handle the complex challenge. Musk’s public endorsement of Trump, coupled with his inflammatory claims, adds another layer of intrigue to an already heated political landscape.

Two technological innovations that were developed by others and which Musk bought into then actively attempted to claim ‘founder status’.

So definitely of the narcissistic ego kind.

''Musk's comments center around a theory regarding immigration and voting patterns in the U.S. According to Musk, Democrats are hastening the naturalization process for undocumented immigrants to create a new voting bloc that would significantly favor their party in future elections'

 

A massively debunked theory often quoted by right-wing nationalists, The Proud Boys and The KKK. The man is just one big conspiracy nut with unfortunately a platform that elavates his voice to the masses.

 

And of course all the Trump fan boys on this site.

It's impossible that someone with the intelligence, integrity and vision of Elon Musk would fall for the act of a charlatan like Kamala Harris.

You don't need to be a "Trump fan boy" to realize that Harris is a complete charlatan. 

 

I've even had Thai colleagues comment on her in disbelief that she is really the candidate. They thought it was some kind of joke. Which in a way, it is.

Instead of doing the same old boring standard response when you hear a message you don't like, ie paint the messenger black, why not look at the argument he made?

 

Is Musk not right, that illiegal immigration will benefit the Democrats massively? And going beyond that are the Democrats not supporting votes for 16 year olds for this very reason? Are they not trying to change the  Electoral College system for this very reason?

 

The Democrats ARE trying to mold the system in their favour. Only Trump can stop it.
