X boss Elon Musk is doubling down on his warnings that Americans “need a red wave” during the critical elections in November.
As Slay News previously reported, Musk warned earlier this month that “America is doomed” unless there is an election “red wave this November.”
In recent weeks, the tech entrepreneur has been sounding the alarm over the impact of endless illegal immigration and other issues that are destroying the country.
Musk has noted that he has been a Democrat for the majority of his voting life.
However, he has increasingly been shifting toward Republicans and aligning with more conservative values.
Musk now believes that the United States stands on precarious ground unless there is a significant shift towards Republican leadership in the upcoming elections.
In a Sunday post on X, Musk admitted:
“I voted 100% Dem until a few years ago.”
He was responding to a poll from someone asking if anyone agrees with their sentiment that “I feel like the Democratic Party is very bad but I still consider myself a liberal.”
Musk has often asserted that he sees himself as a centrist who hasn’t changed his views and argues that the Democrats have shifted further left.
In his post on X, Musk added:
“Now, I think we need a red wave or America is toast.”
I voted 100% Dem until a few years ago.
Now, I think we need a red wave or America is toast.

His stark warning, that “America is toast” without a “red wave,” underscores a growing sentiment among Americans.
Many now feel the current trajectory of Democrat policies could lead to dire consequences for the nation.
The fears among many are that the damage done by these policies, such as Democrat President Joe Biden’s open border agenda, may be impossible to repair.
The political shift expressed by Musk is not unique, however.
Scott Adams, the creator of the widely acclaimed comic strip “Dilbert,” echoed a similar sense of urgency regarding the future of the country.
On X, Adams, a commentator known for his insights on persuasion and political dialogue, outlined how “fear and visual persuasion” are becoming potent tools in shaping public opinion ahead of the elections.
He highlighted the pervasive videos of squatters taking over homes as a powerful image that could significantly influence voter behavior.
Adams suggests that such visuals play into the narrative that Trump could secure a landslide victory due to the current administration’s perceived failures.
Fear and visual persuasion are the most powerful tools of influence
That's why all the videos of squatters taking homes suggests Trump will win in a landslide. You can't top that for visual and scary.
Trump is competing with a sitting government that is actively trying to hurt…

Adams’ analysis points to a broader disillusionment with the Biden administration’s actions.
He argues that Biden’s policies are “actively trying to hurt its own citizens in a variety of entirely obvious ways.”
From the perspective of Musk, Adams, and like-minded individuals, the pattern of governance under Biden and the Democrats has been so detrimental that only a severe lack of awareness could excuse continued support.
This sentiment is particularly poignant coming from figures like Musk.
Musk, whose contributions to technology have reshaped modern innovation and provided him with a platform to influence public discourse, has become a powerful adversary of the Democrats after previously supporting the party.
His political reawakening, coupled with Adams’ insights into the power of fear and visual persuasion, presents a compelling narrative as the country inches closer to Election Nay.
The implications of the statements from Musk and Adams extend beyond their personal political affiliations.
They reflect a broader debate on the direction in which the United States is heading and the mechanisms through which public opinion is shaped and swayed.
As Musk suggests a red wave as the solution to America’s impending doom, and Adams predicts a Trump landslide based on current trends, their voices contribute to a polarized but crucial conversation about the nation’s future.
As the election looms, the statements by Musk and Adams serve as a reminder of the volatile and unpredictable nature of political sentiment in the United States.
While predictions of election outcomes remain speculative, the underlying concerns expressed by these influential figures highlight the deep divisions and challenges facing the country.
Whether or not a red wave will materialize this time around, the stakes have never been higher.
