Elon Musk Stands by Trump at the Rally

In Butler, Pennsylvania, a billboard read “In Musk We Trust.” A Tesla Cybertruck parked on the side of the road sported a TRUMP 2024 flag. Former President Donald Trump returned to Butler for a rally, less than three months after a serious assassination attempt. Joining Trump was X owner Elon Musk and vice presidential candidate JD Vance. “Welcome Back to Butler, Mr. President,” Trump’s walk-on video proclaimed.

Details of the Rally

Trump's rhetoric intertwined with a chart on illegal immigration, coinciding with a moment of silence for the victims of the July incident. Musk made a dramatic appearance, donning a black blazer and a black MAGA hat, declaring his affiliation with Dark MAGA, a cryptocurrency inspired by memes. Musk emphasized the urgency of voting, stating, “This election is the most important election of our lifetime.”

Musk's Political Transformation

• Musk has transitioned from a supporter of Democrats to endorsing Trump.
• He announced a political action committee to support Trump's 2024 campaign.
• Having described himself previously as apolitical, he now encourages active engagement in elections.

After Musk’s address, rally attendees chanted his name, showcasing the significant impact of his political pivot. Musk urged his audience, “Make sure everyone you know & everyone you meet has registered to vote.” He predicted that without massive voter participation, “this will be the last election.”
