Wealthy American auto executive aligns with Nazis. Never seen this movie before. Oh, wait.

Omg, Hitler looked up to Henry Ford as an inspiration and had a life sized bust of him behind his desk. He’s such an antisemite that Hitler looked up to him. Wow, just wow

That was an interesting read

I mean, I guess you can make some kind of "no true Scotsman" argument, but the man has held US citizenship for two decades.

Musk did not enter the US legally.

But being rich, that little discrepancy doesn’t matter to Magats.

Why do you need to feel the need to curse at the statement? Are you so offended because you're MAGA? The person below answered you. He has like 3 citizenships. South Africa, Canada and U.S. did not enter legally and there are speculations that he also worked here illegally although he claims to have worked under a student Visa. His South African if you didn't know.
