(Mark Pellin, Headline USA) Fresh off Elon Musk’s Twitter takeover, the self-proclaimed Chief Twit took to his new platform on Monday to deliver an endorsement for Republicans on tickets across the country in Tuesday’s midterm elections that will determine majority control of Congress and governor races of national interest and implication.
Addressing what Musk called “independent-minded voters,” the Tesla CEO tweeted that “Shared power curbs the worst excesses of both parties, therefore I recommend voting for a Republican Congress, given that the Presidency is Democratic.”
Hardcore Democrats or Republicans never vote for the other side, so independent voters are the ones who actually decide who’s in charge!

Democrats will likely need to change their course of divisive rhetoric and damaging policies if they hope to regain the Musk vote, according to his take on the party earlier this year.
“In the past I voted Democrat, because they were (mostly) the kindness party,” he wrote in May.
“But they have become the party of division & hate, so I can no longer support them and will vote Republican. Now, watch their dirty tricks campaign against me unfold.”
Sure enough, embittered snowflake leftists blew up Twitter with condemnations of Musk. They reacted in similar fashion to Musk’s midterm GOP endorsement.
To independent-minded voters:
Stop listening to delusional billionaires.

Dear independent-minded voters:
The thinned skinned bazillionaire who spent $44 billion on a social media app instead of using that money on something USEFUL or PRODUCTIVE for the planet wants you to take HIS advice on how to vote because he ‘knows what’s best for society’.

“To be clear, my historical party affiliation has been Independent, with an actual voting history of entirely Democrat until this year,” Musk informed. “And I’m open to the idea of voting Democrat again in the future.”
Musk’s GOP recommendation dropped as Republican candidates once written off by fake news media as hopeless long shots are surging in the polls, and in many cases appear positioned to secure historic wins.
