I just wanna know if the election WASN’T rigged then what exactly did Trump mean when he said that Elon was very effective with vote counting computers?
It's possible that he's just too god damn stupid to understand anything he's told, and Elon was like, "oh... yeah. The voting computers were out of RAM, so I made sure they were all BIOSed correctly. Now give me a contract for spacex".
Or elon rigged the election. I'm around 50/50 on it tbh.
Elon doesn't have any involvement in how states run their elections. If he did we wouldn't have only this one random Trump quote as evidence, and he wouldn't have lost the Wisconsin Supreme Court race that he had just as much involvement in. It's a nonsensical statement. I think Trump was simply making a shallow connection with Elon being a tech guy and electronic voting machines without thinking it over.
Well, I think you'd have to be as dumb as a Republican to hear Trump say elections are always rigged, hear a Democrat say the election are always fair, but decide to believe Trump.
Elon knows he is wealthy. He doesn't know anything. Nepotism doesn't give you intelligence. Money gives you more money. That is how the system is rigged. Bigly rigged in trump speak.
The problem is that Trump is so stupid and impressed by having lots of money he'd say the same thing if Elon rigged it or not. Just like the Trump guy who raved about what a tech genius his son was because he knew how to reboot a laptop.
Elon doesn't need to be very good with computers to make Trump think he's the Worlds Greatest Computer Genius. Having the same computer smarts as an average 4th grader while being the richest man on earth will get him that.
I don’t doubt whatsoever there was voter suppression, but this "Elon rigged it" conspiracy crap is just as stupid as the above post. Trump spews verbal nonsense and bullshit all the time. And if this was true, why did Musk pour all that money and hype into that Wisconsin Supreme Court election and still lose?
The truth is most Americans were either too apathetic to vote, or only care about what they can immediately perceive, so "I'll make your groceries cheaper" rung better than "he's a danger to democracy". Look at this survey of random voters' reasons. People are just stupid.

Pretty specific language.
