Elon Musk warns of threat to U.S. Democracy, claims Trump is the “Only way to save it”
Tech billionaire Elon Musk has once again stirred controversy with a post on his social media platform, X (formerly Twitter), in which he claims that former President Donald Trump is the only way to safeguard U.S. democracy.
Musk’s remarks, posted on 29th September, suggest that the 2024 election will be the last meaningful one unless Trump is re-elected, arguing that immigration policies under the Biden administration could fundamentally reshape the political landscape.

In his post, Musk raised concerns about undocumented immigrants gaining citizenship, implying that if even a small percentage of them are naturalized annually, they could influence key elections, particularly in swing states.
“If even 1 in 20 illegals become citizens per year, that would be about 2 million new legal voters in 4 years,” Musk claimed.
He further alleged that the Democratic Party is expediting this process to ensure dominance in future elections, stating that swing states like Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, and Arizona are being specifically targeted.
Musk’s post, which comes amid heightened political tensions in the run-up to the 2024 election, also drew a comparison to California, where he argued that Democratic dominance following the 1986 amnesty has led to extreme socialism and poor governance, leaving citizens with little choice but to leave the state.
“Everywhere in America will be like the nightmare that is downtown San Francisco,” Musk warned, pointing to what he views as the adverse consequences of one-party rule.
The post has quickly ignited debate across social media platforms, with some agreeing with Musk’s concerns about the long-term impact of immigration and others accusing him of stoking unfounded fears.
This isn’t the first time Musk has used his platform to express political views, but his latest comments have added a new dimension to his outspoken role in American politics, especially as the country heads toward a highly polarized election season.
