Democrats have much better reasons to dislike Musk, nobody's ever turned up credible evidence of voting by significant numbers of illegal immigrants, immigrants who do become US citizens don't reliably vote for Democrats

Elon Musk knows "why the Democratic propaganda machine is so fired up to destroy me," he said in an interview earlier this year with Joe Rogan that was pinned to the top of his X feed for several weeks. "The main reason is that entitlements fraud - that includes, like, Social Security, disability, Medicaid entitlements fraud for illegal aliens is what is serving as a gigantic magnetic force to pull people in from all around the world and keep them here." The endgame, he claimed at a political rally late last month in Wisconsin, is "to change the entire voting map of the United States and disenfranchise the American people, and make it a permanent deeply one-party state from which there would be no escape."

Most of this explanation is just dumb. Democrats have much better reasons to dislike Musk, nobody's ever turned up credible evidence of voting by significant numbers of illegal immigrants, immigrants who do become US citizens don't reliably vote for Democrats, and one of the simplest ways to solidify support for a prowelfare-state political party (which in the US is usually the Democrats) is to reduce immigration.
