Once again, fellow Trump haters, please stop with the 2024 election conspiracies.
Many Democrats and associated progressives an socialists are convinced that Donald Trump and Elon Musk cheated in the 2024 presidential election and insist that Kamala Harris is the rightful winner. Musk, we are told, used his Starlink company to switch enough votes in all seven swing states to elect Trump. The evidence, we are informed, is that Trump came right out and said it and that Musk said that he will go to jail for what he did for Trump if the Democrats regain control of Congress in November.
Okay, Trump's comments can be easily discounted, because he's nothing but braggadocio. No one takes seriously what he says. As for Musk, he was likely referring to everything he's done for Trump since January 2025, not anything he might have done for him in October 2024.
But the biggest argument against this conspiracy theories is largely circumstantial. I know of no voting machines that can be hacked by Starlink or by any other tech service.
So why do these theories persist? Because these people cannot believe that people who stayed home on November 5, 2024 were not part of the problem (polls show that had those people voted, they would have been a bigger problem, Trump would have won by a larger margin). Or because they can't believe that Harris was unpopular enough to lose every swing state. Or maybe because these people simply cannot believe that 77 million of their fellow Americans cannot be so vile as to vote for Donald Trump.
They are.
So, please, folks, next time you want to say that Trump cheated to win . . . don't. Please, don't.
