In the United States, Halloween’s title as the most frightening day has been supplanted by Nov. 5, which will see citizens cast their votes in the Presidential election. Elon Musk has joined in on the occasion, unleashing a barrage of aggressive and offensive remarks at every opportunity.
Musk, a billionaire technology mogul and notorious for his fragile ego, has increasingly voiced his political opinions over the past year. He has actively campaigned alongside Trump, rallying support for the upcoming election. His choice of words has been nothing short of coarse.
Musk established the America PAC (Political Action Committee) and recently shared a video on X that seems almost too outrageous to be real. It bears a striking resemblance to a satire piece from the creators of South Park, poking fun at both Trump and Musk. The content is filled with blatantly “patriotic” imagery designed to project strength, showcasing elements like lions, eagles, wrestlers, and gladiators—basically a surreal fantasy that could emerge from a wild night of excessive drinking by some overzealous fraternity brother.

Beneath the video, a disclaimer read: “This account does not represent the official Twitter/X handle of the United States. It is a PAC created by Elon Musk in support of Republican figures, including Donald J. Trump. Additionally, it’s essential to recognize that America is a continent, not a singular country, of which the USA is a part.” A link to a Wikipedia page explaining North America accompanied the notice.
America PAC’s Links to Neo-Nazi Ideologies
The individual responsible for the video, which depicts Trump as a gladiator kicking Vice President Kamala Harris, prominently included his watermark. Further exploration of his profile reveals numerous posts that resonate with Neo-Nazi ideologies.
Among these are visuals of him wielding the German Imperial flag and images suggesting he performed the Nazi salute. NBC recently reported that he also authored a post stating, “White men will save the world,” provoking significant disagreement from those familiar with history. Given Trump’s connections to right-wing extremism, it’s unsurprising that his die-hard following would align with another extremist figure.
While the video comes off as both laughable and alarming, it also amplifies the nationalistic and aggressive discourse championed by Musk and Trump. Harris faces derision for her gender, ethnic background, and unfounded claims of being “communist.” Notably, this is not the first time America PAC has distributed outrageous content on X; Musk had to retract a video just recently that referred to Harris using inappropriate language and accused her of being a “communist.” His ongoing flow of misleading and entirely false statements has drawn the ire of election officials.
