Elon Musk recently made headlines after publicly voicing his support for former President Donald Trump during an interview with Tucker Carlson. In a conversation that mixed humor with serious concerns, Musk suggested that the 2024 election could significantly alter the U.S. political landscape, particularly if Trump were to lose.
Musk’s Bold Prediction: The ‘Last Election’
During the interview, Musk emphasized the gravity of Trump’s potential loss, expressing his concerns in an exaggerated, yet pointed manner. “If [Trump] loses, I’m f**ked,” Musk quipped, underlining how vital he believes the upcoming election is for the future of the country.
Musk didn’t stop there. He went on to suggest that if Trump doesn’t secure victory in 2024, it could be the “last election” the United States ever sees in its current form. According to Musk, a continued Democratic administration might lead to sweeping changes, including what he called the legalization of “illegals,” which could transform key swing states and ultimately push the U.S. toward becoming a single-party nation.
Such a transformation, in Musk’s view, could permanently reshape the country’s political dynamics by eliminating battleground states in future elections. He voiced concerns that migrants could be strategically granted citizenship to sway future electoral outcomes in favor of the Democrats.
Musk’s Playful Exchange With Carlson: ‘Prison Sentence?’
In a lighter moment during the interview, Carlson asked Musk about the potential personal consequences of his vocal support for Trump. Musk jokingly pondered how long he might serve in prison under a Democratic administration, quipping, “How long do you think my prison sentence is gonna be?”
While Musk’s comments may have been lighthearted, they underscored the intensity of his political convictions. The tech billionaire’s support for Trump stands in stark contrast to the political leanings of many of his employees. Data from September shows that workers at Tesla, SpaceX, and X (formerly Twitter) have largely supported Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign, contributing significantly more to her than to Trump.
Why It Matters
Musk’s support for Trump has not come without consequence. In September, Trump announced plans to appoint Musk to head a government efficiency commission if he is re-elected. Musk has agreed to take on the role without compensation, aligning with Trump’s economic vision. This decision further cements Musk’s position in Trump’s camp, even as political divisions continue to grow.
Despite Musk’s jokes about his future, the interview highlighted his genuine concerns about the direction of U.S. politics. As 2024 approaches, Musk’s outspoken support for Trump and his willingness to engage in the political fray make him a key figure to watch in what is shaping up to be a pivotal election year.
