Winners ‘are not chosen by chance’ and must fulfill ‘contractual obligations’ for America PAC, GOP lawyer tells court

Summary

Elon Musk’s $1 million sweepstakes for his pro-Trump PAC is not random, but rather a way to recruit “spokespeople” for the group.

The lawsuit against Musk and his PAC alleges that the sweepstakes violates consumer protection laws and falsely advertises a random contest.

Despite the admission of liability, the judge allowed the sweepstakes to continue.

      I don’t know if this is a criminal charge, but if it is, then this is the answer right here.

      A couple of months behind bars would be a brutal wake up call to billionaires that money can’t buy everything.

      Of course they’d just double down on buying more politicians and judges.
