Much like his Republican pal, Donald Trump, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has never shied away from outrageous claims that are often either utterly exaggerated or just straight-up misinformation. His latest one is probably another hugely ridiculous claim and likely part of his political propaganda since his last one.
Musk took to his Twitter handle today to claim that if former President Donald Trump is not re-elected in the upcoming 2024 Presidential polls, it could mark the end of democratic elections in the country. While endorsing Trump, Musk emphasized that voting for him is the only way to “save democracy.”
“Very few Americans realize that if Trump is NOT elected, this will be the last election. Far from being a threat to democracy, he is the only way to save it!” Musk tweeted in response to a user on X (formerly Twitter).
Musk also accused the Biden administration of using immigration to influence the outcome of future elections, suggesting that Democrats are fast-tracking illegal migrants to citizenship in key swing states like Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, and Arizona.
“If even 1 in 20 illegal immigrants become citizens each year, which Democrats are expediting as fast as humanly possible, that would result in about 2 million new legal voters in four years. The voting margin in swing states is often less than 20,000 votes, which means if the Democrats succeed, there will be no more swing states,” Musk continued.

Let me explain: if even 1 in 20 illegals become citizens per year, something that the Democrats are expediting as fast… https://t.co/u3HBdd5Bv0
He further alleged that this strategy would turn the U.S. into a one-party state, where Democratic primaries would be the only elections left. Musk compared the situation to California, stating, “The only thing holding California back from extreme socialism is that people can leave. Once the whole country is controlled by one party, there will be no escape.”
Musk’s claims come months after Jan. 6 committee’s final report earlier this year asserted that Donald Trump criminally engaged in a “multi-part conspiracy” to overturn the lawful results of the 2020 presidential election and failed to act to stop his supporters from attacking the Capitol, concluding an extraordinary 18-month investigation into the former president and the violent insurrection two years ago.
Trump “lit that fire,” the committee’s chairman, Mississippi Rep. Bennie Thompson, wrote.
The 814-page report released earlier this year came after the panel interviewed more than 1,000 witnesses, held 10 hearings and obtained more than a million pages of documents. The witnesses — ranging from many of Trump’s closest aides to law enforcement to some of the rioters themselves — detailed Trump’s “premeditated” actions in the weeks ahead of the attack and how his wide-ranging efforts to overturn his defeat directly influenced those who brutally pushed past the police and smashed through the windows and doors of the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
The central cause was “one man,” the report said: Trump.
It’s not a one party state. It’s the majority calling you a f**king idiot Elon. You fucking nerd.
