Wow. Elon Musk has come out swinging harder than ever for Donald Trump the past couple weeks. He’s just outright campaigning as a surrogate for him now! (Guess Trump needs it since he refuses to do most interview shows and is only doing a quarter of the rallies he did in 2020.)
But remember the last time Elon went all in on something, it was Twitter. Now that’s become X, and it’s worth like $35 billion less than when he bought it. And he’s bringing that genius to the Trump campaign.
Elon’s latest strategy? Trying to turn around everything about Trump and aim it at the Kamala Harris. For instance, he’s been saying if Trump loses, it’ll be the last election… Despite Trump being the one who has already proven with January 6 and his continued election denial that he’s the one unwilling to peacefully accept a loss.
But far, far dumber? He’s now invoking Jeffrey Epstein — as a negative for Kamala!
In an interview with Tucker Carlson on, let’s just check that… oh, right, on Elon’s own platform, X… he espoused his new “theory.” The reason some billionaires — naming Bill Gates and Reid Hoffman explicitly — is because of “the Epstein situation.” He said:
“You know, I think part of why Kamala is getting so much support is that if Trump wins, that Epstein client list is going to become public. And some of those billionaires behind Kamala are terrified of that outcome.”
Wow. Here’s the entire clip:

First off, it’s a pretty gross abuse of power to use your enormous platform and spread an accusation like that with no evidence. Like saying someone is “terrified” of the Epstein names being released, heavily implying they participated in underage sex trafficking? Surely he wouldn’t do that with zero support at all, right?
Well… this is the guy who infamously called one of the divers trying to save those trapped Thai schoolchildren a “pedo” and got away with it, winning the defamation case. So… it wouldn’t be the first time.
Second, though, and this is the big one… Do they really want to sling that kind of mud in this election? Because when it comes to Epstein, Kamala Harris is squeaky clean. Maybe this kind of thing would have played against Hillary Clinton since her hubby’s name is mixed up in the Epstein stuff. But against former District Attorney Kamala Harris?
Meanwhile there is probably no single individual more wrapped up in Epstein ties than Donald Trump.
Trump was best pals with the guy for years and years. They hung out and gave each other private jet rides. There are tons of photos and videos of them together; they were reportedly each other’s wingman. Trump even infamously told New York magazine for a 2002 article:
“I’ve known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy. He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.”
ON THE YOUNGER SIDE! That was long before Epstein’s accusations were public. And y’all wanna tell us this man didn’t know about it?? And he was calling the guy “terrific”??

Eventually Epstein was accused of sex trafficking… in 2006. But he beat that rap. Not by having some great evidence, but by all accounts he was just handed his defense on a silver platter. A US attorney named Alexander Acosta gave him what’s been called a “sweetheart deal.” Epstein pleaded down to a MUCH lower prostitution charge, ignoring the three dozen victims’ allegations. In exchange the government got… the opposite of the bigger fish. They gave Epstein a non-prosecution agreement saying they weren’t allowed to go after his co-conspirators. WTF.
If that name Acosta sounds familiar? It’s because when Trump first became president, he gave that guy a huge promotion, putting him in his cabinet as Labor Secretary.
Huh. Accusing Kamala supporters of having Epstein ties still sound like a good idea??
Well, it was also then President Trump who was asked about Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell going on trial and wished her well. This is on camera, guys.
"I wish her well.”

Trump also flew on Epstein’s plane, the “Lolita Express,” more than any other person we know of. And perhaps most shockingly, he’s STILL flying in the damn thing. His campaign acquired it after Epstein’s death and turned it into one of his campaign planes! The Lolita Express, guys. Trump is still using it. Sentimental value, we guess.
And that’s all completely ignoring the horrific allegations. Trump and Epstein were accused by a woman going by the name Katie Johnson of raping her when she was just 13 years old. It’s one of the most horrible things we’ve ever read. Truly. She backed out of her lawsuit and disappeared, so the whole thing went away. But JFC. Horrifying.
But no, absolutely, Elon, bring up the Epstein list. Oh, speaking of that list… The one that’ll come out when Trump gets elected? Here’s what Trump actually said about declassifying all that Epstein stuff when asked directly if he would:
“Yeah. I would… I guess I would… I think that less so, because you don’t want to affect people’s lives if it’s phony stuff in there, because it’s a lot of phony stuff with that world…”
That’s what all these billionaires are supposedly afraid of? Someone who talks about the list like it’s his kryptonite??
Wow. Listen to the absolute fear and panic Trump has when asked if he’d declassify the Epstein files.

But sure. That’s the key. Let’s scare all the MAGA base with talk of Epstein. Seriously, this guy should stick to designing low-resolution trucks.
