This year\u2019s election will be America\u2019s last, if Donald Trump loses, Elon Musk has claimed<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Democratic Party could turn the United States into a de facto one-party state if they succeed in boosting their electorate in swing states by increasingly providing citizenship to illegal immigrants, tech mogul Elon Musk has argued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This statement comes as the US election is just over a month away, with rhetoric on both sides becoming more heated. Democratic nominee and incumbent Vice President Kamala Harris has repeatedly called her Republican rival, former President Donald Trump, a threat to democracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Musk, who endorsed Trump in July, claimed that the opposite is true in a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cVery few Americans realize that if Trump is NOT elected, this will be the last election. Far from being a threat to democracy, he is the only way to save it!\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cLet me explain: if even 1 in 20 illegals become citizens per year \u2013 something the Democrats are expediting as fast as humanly possible \u2013 that would be about 2 million new legal voters in four years,\u201d Musk said in reply to a post claiming that 9 million illegal immigrants are eligible for citizenship under the current US administration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMoreover, the Biden\/Harris administration has been flying \u2018asylum seekers,\u2019 who are fast-tracked to citizenship, directly into swing states like Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, and Arizona. It is a surefire way to win every election,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With swing states often determining US elections by a margin of fewer than 20,000 votes, Musk claimed that if the Democrats succeed in using immigration to boost their electorate, there will be no more swing states. The only elections thereafter would be Democratic primaries, similar to what occurred in California in the late 1980s, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAmerica then becomes a one-party state, and democracy is over,\u201d Musk concluded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Musk announced in July that he would be closing the X offices in San Francisco, stating that he\u2019s \u201chad enough of dodging gangs of violent drug addicts just to get in and out of the building.\u201d X\u2019s relocation to Texas coincided with multiple high-profile business departures amid the city\u2019s well-documented homelessness, drug and crime epidemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Illegal immigration and the situation at the border have become major points of contention between Democrats and Republicans in this election cycle. Trump has criticized his Democratic opponents on immigration issues, condemning President Joe Biden\u2019s reinstatement of the Obama-era \u2018catch and release\u2019 policy, which he claims allows convicted criminals among illegal immigrants to be released into the US.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
