One thing for sure: The Musk family is all in for Donald Trump — and election lies.

While Elon Musk — carmaker, owner of Twitter/X, government contractor and conspiracy theorist — was hopping around the stage at a rally for Trump at a Pennsylvania rally on Saturday, his mother was suggesting a way for Trump supporters to cheat in November’s presidential election against Kamala Harris.

Maye Musk, by the way, has 1.1 million followers on Twitter/X, her reach no doubt helped by the owner.

When her son tweeted, “Super important to get all your friends and family to register to vote. Georgia’s registration deadline is Monday!!” Maye Musk offered her own voting strategy.

“The Democrats have given us another option,” she tweeted. “You don’t have to register to vote. On Election Day, have 10 fake names, go to 10 polling booths and vote 10 times. That’s 100 votes, and it’s not illegal. Maybe we should work the system too.

Actually, that is illegal — and even Twitter/X’s fact-checking labeled it so with an embarrassing community note that explained, “This is, in fact, illegal,” while citing the law. But that wasn’t all: Maye Musk’s tweet drew immediate and brutal mocking on social media…

    These people are delusional. They really believe that the Democrats have implemented some mass-scale vote cheating program, despite there being no evidence of that and plenty of evidence that the Republicans have been preventing people voting, gerrymandering districts, placing state election officials who refuse to certify anything but a Republican win, loading the courts with biased judges, and (in some cases) voting multiple times. It’s another accusation that’s a confession.

      I’d love to hear from more politicians parents. For instance, what would Fred Trump have to say about his son leading the American Nazi movement in 2024?
