Elon Musk Stands with Donald Trump, Declares 2024 Election a “Final Choice” for American Democracy
In a show of high-profile support, Elon Musk backs Donald Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign, framing the election as a critical juncture for American democracy. Speaking at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX asserted that Trump is the only candidate capable of “preserving democracy” in the U.S., suggesting that if Trump does not win, “this will be the last election.”
Musk, sporting Trump’s iconic “Make America Great Again” cap, declared, “I’m not just MAGA — I’m Dark MAGA.” His remarks added a foreboding tone to the rally, with Musk suggesting that this election could be America’s last if Trump does not secure a victory. “They want to take away your freedom of speech,” he warned the crowd, referring to his concerns about restrictions on free expression and gun rights. In Musk’s view, Democrats are threatening the very foundations of American democracy.
The rally took place on the same property where, in July, a gunman attempted to assassinate Trump. The incident resulted in the death of Trump supporter Corey Comperatore and injuries to several others. During his speech, Trump honoured Comperatore’s family and paid tribute to the first responders who had been present at the July rally. Key Republican figures, including Trump’s running mate, Ohio Senator JD Vance, and members of Trump’s family, attended the event, underscoring the growing alliance between Musk and Trump as the election campaign heats up.

Musk’s involvement in Trump’s campaign isn’t limited to appearances. He has created a super political action committee (PAC) dedicated to supporting Trump’s re-election efforts, funneling significant funds into voter mobilization campaigns. His presence and endorsement of Trump at the rally signal Musk’s deepening commitment to the cause, drawing comparisons with his role at X, where he and Trump previously shared a public conversation that covered illegal immigration, government regulation, and Trump’s plans to streamline federal oversight.
While Musk has been vocal about his support for free speech, he is equally critical of California’s recent attempts to eliminate voter ID requirements. “It’s about freedom,” he told the crowd, casting Trump as a defender of these core American values. From Musk’s perspective, the stakes in 2024 are higher than ever, with Trump standing as a bulwark against what Musk describes as a “takeover” of American rights.
As Election Day approaches, the partnership between Trump and Musk is shaping up to be a unique fusion of political and business influence. For UK audiences, the emerging Musk-Trump alliance raises questions about the impact of big tech figures in global politics and the implications for international relations should Trump return to power. With both figures championing issues around free speech and deregulation, their growing alliance is bound to attract significant attention on both sides of the Atlantic.
