After faltering in his plan to found a new ‘America Party’, the world’s richest person is returning to the GOP fold

In the aftermath of his spectacular falling out with Donald Trump last year, Elon Musk blasted the Republican Party as a corrupt force that was “bankrupting” the United States of America.

But now, after months in the political wilderness, the volatile tech baron has indicated that he will once again devote his enormous fortune to electing GOP politicians, this time ahead of the midterm elections in 2026.

“America is toast if the radical left wins,” declared Musk on X Thursday. “They will open the floodgates to illegal immigration and fraud. Won’t be America anymore.”

        I wanted to add some articles of him saying we would be on Mars by now, the problem is that he says this basically every year. So if you google it now, most articles just repeat him promising to go to Mars in 2026 and later …

        Oh, and this reminds me that his SpaceX is completely behind on their current timeline to get back to the moon as part of a contract with NASA.
