About midway through a more than 2-1/2 hour long interview with Joe Rogan, Elon Musk — the SpaceX, X, Tesla, and Starlink entrepreneur — turned to the camera and implored Americans to “Go out and vote. Vote like your life depends on it. Vote like your future depends on it. Because it does. This is the last chance, man.”
Such a remarkable statement from anyone else might be a throwaway line, but Elon Musk is not a stupid man. He was deadly serious and laid out the anecdotal evidence and rationale for this jarring conclusion.
“What I’m saying is like this election is the last chance to preserve democracy in America, mark my words,” he told Rogan. “Everything they accuse Trump of they are guilty of and and if Trump doesn’t win this, it will be the last realelection in America.”
On what basis does he make the claim?
Elon Musk tells Joe Rogan what he thinks will happen if Kamala wins.
“This election is the last chance to preserve Democracy in America, mark my words.”
