Billionaire Elon Musk has no political choice but to support Donald Trump in the US presidential election, Americanist Boris Mezhuev told NEWS.ru. According to him, the richest man in the world has a fundamental conflict with the US Democratic Party, and supporting Republican Trump is literally a matter of survival for Musk.
According to him, the support of public figures like Musk is also important for Trump himself. Throughout the 2020 election campaign, the former president was told that only representatives of oil companies and individual opponents of globalization supported him. And now, the extremely popular representative of the high-tech industry Elon Musk has sided with Trump.
This is a real demonstration that more and more different people are supporting the Republican candidate. This is perceived as a big step for Trump to win , Mezhuev concluded.
Earlier, Bloomberg reported that Elon Musk intends to give a campaign speech for Trump in Pennsylvania. Voters in this state are undecided about the candidate, and Musk’s speech could significantly influence their opinion.
According to the publication, Pennsylvania, where the votes are equally divided between Trump and Democratic candidate Kamala Harris, “has become the most fierce battleground.” One of Trump’s campaign managers, Chris La Civita, noted that Musk represents a true American success story for voters. He emphasized that the billionaire has become a “great addition” to the Republican team.
