Elon Musk has revealed that he “will vote Republican” because the Democrats “have become the party of division and hate.”
In a post on Twitter, Musk said he “can no longer support” the Democratic Party due to their divisiveness.
He also warned that he expects retaliation from the Democrats for flipping to the GOP.
“In the past, I voted Democrat because they were (mostly) the kindness party,” Musk explained.
“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.”

This is not the first time Musk has put the Democrats on notice.
He lashed out at Biden over inflation and excessive spending.
“I mean, the obvious reason for inflation is that the government printed a zillion amount of more money than it had, obviously,” Musk said.
“So it’s like the government can’t just, you know, issue checks far in excess of revenue without there being inflation, you know, velocity of money held constant.
“If the federal government writes checks, they never bounce.
“So that is effectively creation of more dollars.
“And if there are more dollars created, then the increase in the goods and services across the economy, then you have inflation, again, velocity of money held constant.
“If the government could just issue massive amounts of money and deficits didn’t matter, then, well, why don’t we just make the deficit 100 times bigger?
“The answer is, you can’t because it will basically turn the dollar into something that is worthless.
“Various countries have tried this experiment multiple times.
“Have you seen Venezuela?
“Like the poor, poor people of Venezuela are, you know, have been just run roughshod by their government.
“So obviously you can’t simply create money.”
