Elon Musk sparks controversy with political moves at Trump rally

sea.mashable.com

Elon Musk's recent activities at a Trump rally have raised concerns about his political actions. He promoted the hashtag #DorkMAGA and took control of the @America account, using it to offer money to voters in swing states. Previously, Musk's political efforts were struggling, with his pro-Trump PAC firing its entire turnout operation in key states. He faced fact-checking for spreading false claims about a bomb threat at a rally and made misleading posts about FEMA's actions during a hurricane. Musk's new profile photo and bio on X reflect his support for Trump, marking a shift from his earlier claims of political neutrality. His mother also suggested illegal voting practices, which drew criticism and fact-checking from the platform.
