Elon Musk Makes Energetic Entrance At Butler Rally: ‘Trump Must Win’

X owner Elon Musk had an energetic entrance to former President Donald Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday where he subsequently spoke for several minutes about the importance of registering to vote.

The rally was a historic moment for the United States, a former president returning to the very site where three months prior, he was shot in the head by a would-be assassin.

Trump introduced Musk, who has turned into his most powerful political ally, by highlighting his recent contributions to recovery efforts in the southeast U.S. where millions are reeling after Hurricane Helene devastated the region.

Trump called Musk a “truly incredible guy” who would have a key role in helping return America to greatness.

Trump has stated in recent weeks that he will appoint Musk to head a new Government Efficiency Commission that will focus on cutting wasteful government spending as the country looks to avoid going bankrupt after being saddled with tens of trillions of dollars of debt.

“As you can see, I’m not just MAGA, I’m dark MAGA,” Musk said as he sported a black “Make America Great Again” hat.

“The true test of someone’s character is how they behave under fire,” Musk said. “And we had one president who couldn’t climb a flight of stairs, and another who was fist pumping after getting shot.”

“Who do you want representing America?” he asked.

“I think this election, I think it’s [the] most important election of our lifetime,” Musk continued. “This is no ordinary election.”

Musk then rattled off a number of ways that Democrats have stated they want to clamp down on American’s freedoms.

“The other side wants to take away your freedom of speech,” he said. “They want to take away your right to bear arms. That want to take away your right to vote effectively. We’ve got 14 states now that don’t require voter ID.”

“So how’re you supposed to have a good, proper election if there’s no ID? It’s meaningless,” he continued. “And free speech is the bedrock of democracy, and if people don’t know what’s going on, if they don’t know the truth, how can you make an informed vote? You must have free speech in order to have democracy. That’s why it’s the First Amendment, and the Second Amendment is there to ensure that we have the First Amendment.”

Musk said that Trump must win the election “to preserve the Constitution” and to protect democracy in America.

The tech titan has warned repeatedly in recent weeks that Democrats are trying to rig elections in the U.S. by importing millions of illegal aliens that they are seeking to make citizens so they can vote.

Musk then pressed the crowd for a couple of minutes on the importance of registering to vote and doing it immediately, as the deadline to register is closing in swing states in the next couple of days.
