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.”
H1B workers, the kind Musk loves, are pretty much stuck with their jobs and get paid less than their more permanently residing counterparts even though they technically shouldn’t. It’s still a huuuuge increase over what they’d get paid back home, of course.
If you let your immigrants freely pick their jobs, they’ll have bargaining power too and thus don’t have to ruin the job market for others by accepting low wages.
