Um… Did Trump Just Say Elon Musk Rigged The Election?!
A great many people were shocked on election night to see the country elect Donald Trump again. And not just that he won, that it… wasn’t close?! Suddenly we don’t live in a really divided country? He got EVERY swing state??
There were plenty calling for an audit of the swing states — but not any Democrat who actually had any power, apparently. We’re guessing they were scared of looking like hypocrites after Trump spent four years complaining about the election being rigged. But like… just asking for the audit one time so you know for sure isn’t even the same thing. They could have done something, right?

Well, it sounds like maybe they should have. Because on Sunday, Trump kinda, sorta, totally implied his tech buddy Elon Musk rigged the voting machines his way! At least that’s how it sounded to us and a LOT of other folks! He said in his Inauguration Eve speech:
“Elon was very effective. He knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide. It was pretty good. Thank you to Elon.”

Sorry, WHAT?!
Folks have wondered why Trump was suddenly so beholden to Elon, even as they disagreed — like on certain aspects of immigration. People have even wondered if Elon Musk was now secretly the REAL president, controlling Trump like a puppet! And actually, that kind of talk is the thing we thought would make Trump prove he was the real power by saying “you’re fired” to his ass! But no, he’s kept him close the whole time.
Is this why??
You’d think Trump would never admit it out loud, but this is Trump we’re talking about. This man says the quiet part out loud, and his followers cheer. There’s no shame there. If his supporters knew for a fact he cheated, they’d all say it was a smart move. Not to mention the fact our Justice Department made the nonsensical declaration they’d never prosecute a sitting president, so… At this point what’s to stop him from just shooting that guy on 5th Avenue? You know?? And hell, it’s not like the mainstream press is picking it up either.
Look, maybe Trump is just trolling. But we just don’t know how else to read that comment. What do YOU think, Perezcious readers??
