Summary

Donald Trump’s allies are worried that Elon Musk’s supposed canvassing efforts could cost them the election.

Elon Musk’s America PAC is under fire for allegedly faking canvassing data and mistreating workers on Donald Trump’s campaign. Roughly a quarter of reported door-knocks in Arizona and Nevada were flagged as “unusual,” suggesting location spoofing. Canvassers also report poor conditions, including working through a hurricane and being transported in a U-Haul instead of promised rentals. Frustrated Republican operatives are urging Trump to abandon Musk’s PAC due to its operational failures.

    The guy who blew vast sums of campaign money on fake canvassing (and vast sums of his own money on Twitter) is who Trump plans to put in charge of government waste. Let that sink in.

      well let’s not also forget the amount of taxpayer money dumped into Tesla/spacex/starlink! the guy is the biggest welfare leach, and most of his ideas were stolen from someone else!

      so basically a welfare queen whining about “excess government spending”. How ironic.

      Well he also wants to put anti vaxxer RFK Jr in a prominent role overseeing public health, so there’s that too. Though I thought the role of Secretary of Transportation would go to Elon.
