Elon Musk told Tucker Carlson that he went all-in on his bet to support Donald Trump

Speaking to Tucker Carlson in a nearly two-hour-long chat posted on X, the social media owner and Tesla CEO admitted he went “all-in” on his bet to return the former president to the White House in November .

“If he loses, I’m f—-d,” a jovial Musk told the conservative commentator and former Fox News host in a friendly interview during which the two largely agreed with each other. “I trashed Kamala non-stop.”

Musk acknowledged that he landed in hot water following his remarks on social media that no one bothered to attack Harris’ life as they did with Trump.

Defending himself, Musk said it was only meant to emphasize how futile such an effort would be. He believes the party’s leadership and donors will simply continue to support a new candidate — just as they did with Biden in July when his poll numbers fell.

Musk expects to be targeted for prosecution

Asked what a potential Harris win would mean for X, the ex-Twitter fears Musk his political opponents would target him — especially if Democrats eliminate Section 230, which protects platforms like his from legal liability.

This would “instantly bankrupt” an already financially strained X. (Hillary Clinton called last month to repeal Section 230 and install social media railings or “lose total control” when it comes to raising kids addicted to their smartphones)

“They will try to shut it down by any means possible,” Musk argued.

He also said he could very well find himself on the receiving end of a federal indictment, though he argued that any prosecution would be pure “law” if the Democratic Party hijacks the legal system to shut down a political opponent using a case that has no case. substantive merit.

“They’re going to try to sue the company, sue me,” he claimed, referring to X.

His own mother, Maye, said that Musk’s casual and broken attitude at the thought was not “funny” since she was worried hhimself.

Why he thinks this could be America’s last real election

During the podcast, Musk argued why a Trump defeat would end America’s choice at the polls in the future.

He believes Democrats have deliberately transported undocumented immigrants to swing states where they are quickly granted asylum.

Once this status – legally reserved only for those facing a real threat of persecution at home – is granted, they are granted permanent residency and can apply for citizenship five years later. They would probably vote blue instead.

There is no evidence to support this claim.

“The only contest will be who wins the Democratic primary,” he said. “That’s the way it is in California, that’s the way it is in New York.”

A spokesman for the Democratic Party could not be reached wealth to respond to Musk’s claims.

Musk plans to eliminate three-quarters of all federal agencies

Musk said Trump offered him a leadership role in the administration that would give him broad authority to eliminate a federal workforce he claimed was bloated.

He suggested that far too many agencies are tying up entrepreneurs like him in unnecessary and excessive red tape created just to justify their existence.

“We need some kind of garbage collection for regulations that don’t make sense,” he argued.

Musk’s proposed “Department of Government Efficiency,” or DOGE, wouldn’t be as draconian as he did on Twitter, where he eliminated four out of five jobs.

But he argued that the US government could easily deal with a quarter of the various regulatory bodies that churn out more rules each year that hurt businesses like his.

“I’m probably going to need, if that happens, a pretty big security team,” he said, “because someone could literally send me mail from the post office.”
