Elon Musk’s views on D-Day

As votes were being counted, Musk shared a photo of himself holding a White House sink on an X-shaped handle with the caption: “Let it sink in.” This was the witty side of Musk, who advised the Biden-Harris government to watch their majority fall as the vote for Trump began to rise rapidly.

Another post from Musk was captioned: “America is a nation of builders. Soon you will be able to build.” You may have often heard the phrase “Make America Great Again,” which Musk likely drew parallels with. Now that the vote count is over and Trump has won, Musk says Americans will restore their country to its former glory.

During the election campaign and even before that, a number of media outlets were accused of bias and bias. Now that the left’s reign is over, Musk has encouraged people to become journalists themselves. Elon Musk wrote: “Now you are the media.”

As voter turnout began to rise, Musk supported it and wrote: “The cavalry has arrived. Men are voting in record numbers. Now they understand that everything is at stake.”

When a user echoed Elon Musk’s sentiment, he wrote, “This is a huge change.”
