On Saturday, entrepreneur Elon Musk will be present at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, where former president Trump was almost assassinated during a speech in July; the venue is also the same as Trump’s rally.
On his show X, Musk—who has emerged as a major player in Trump’s campaign and boosted his political donations to Republicans nationwide—said, “I will be there to support!” Musk has not publicly rallied with Trump, despite hosting the former president at an X virtual event and announcing a monthly donation of $45 million to a Trump supporter PAC.
Corey Comperatore was a firefighter in the audience who was murdered by the gunman; Trump vowed to go back to Butler in order to pay his respects to his life.
“On July 26, I will be returning to Butler, Pennsylvania, for a large and moving rally, paying tribute to the memory of our beloved firefighter, Corey, and those courageous patriots wounded two weeks ago,” Trump captioned his post on Truth Social. Wow, today is going to be a real battle! Details will be provided in due course.
The former supporter of Democrats, notably Vice President Kamala Harris, has grown more critical of them, according to the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX.
“Kamala’s voting record when she was in the Senate was to the left of Bernie Sanders!” he declared on X. Out of all 100 senators, she was deemed the most left-wing. Completely unconservative.
Claims that the government is “literally using YOUR tax dollars to import voters and disenfranchise you!” and other Republican talking points about immigration are abundant in Musk’s X feed, as is evident from a cursory glance. The man himself, Musk, is a foreign national originally.
In an effort to galvanize Wisconsinites before the election, the Trump-affiliated America PAC—which receives the majority of its funding from Musk—is partnering with the conservative Turning Point Action group. In addition, Trump has stated that Musk will lead a “government efficiency commission” in his administration.
