Billionaire’s Mom Pulls Back Curtain On Decision To Leave ‘Malicious’ Democrat Party

The mother of billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, Maye Musk, said Thursday that after switching from the Democrat Party over to the Republican Party, she felt relief that she was no longer linked to a party that some consider to be “malicious and dishonest.”

Maye was a guest on “The Bottom Line,” on the FOX Business Channel Thursday, where she was asked about the driving force that made her become more conservative.

“When I became a U.S. citizen, of course, I was Democratic because they give you that option and because they’re the good kind people who care about America,” Maye told the hosts, explaining that she would watch CNN, MSNBC and read the New York Times, which depicted Republicans as terrible. “But then, they’d also say Elon is terrible, and I was thinking, why are they lying about Elon?

“They really just cut into my mind that they just didn’t know what they were doing,” she said. “Then when I resigned from the Democrats, I just felt such a relief that I’m not part of the party that’s now malicious and dishonest. And my biggest fear is the fraud they are committing at the voting booths.”

Elon purchased Twitter in 2023 before renaming it X. Since Elon’s takeover, the platform has become a space where people have the ability to speak and say what they want as long as it is lawful.

Musk has also become a big supporter of former President Trump during this election cycle and is rumored to be a contender for a potential cabinet role.

As Musk continues to be associated with Trump, several publications have published articles about him on Thursday and how he turned X into a pro-Trump “echo chamber.” Maye was asked if she worries about her son when all these reports come out from those who oppose his views, and making himself a target.

“I always worry about Elon, but don’t forget: Biden is on X. Kamala Harris is on X…all the Democrats are on X,” she said. “It’s horrifying, and as a mother, it terrifies me.”
