The discussion started with a recent X post from DogeDesigner, stating “If Kamala/Walz win, their first move will be to ban X and arrest Elon Musk. Protect your right to free speech before it’s too late. Vote wisely this time.”

Meanwhile, the Tesla CEO has also reacted to another recent statement made by Tim Walz, further fueling the debate. In an interview shared today, Kamala Harris’s VP pick commented, “There’s no guarantee to free speech on misinformation or hate speech.”

Musk fired back, saying, “He wants to take away your right to free speech in America.” This response has heightened fears among Musk’s supporters and free speech advocates, raising concerns over how a potential Harris administration could impact his business operations and his own personal liberty.

Donald Trump & Musk Alliance Sparks Debate

The debate was intensified with the recent backing of Elon Musk to former US President Donald Trump. Musk’s support for Donald Trump has been increasingly visible recently, adding another layer of intrigue to the discussion.

Meanwhile, his reaction to a recent assassination attempt on Trump, in which gunshots were fired near Trump’s Florida property, further underscored his tense political stance. Notably, he has raised eyebrows by highlighting the lack of similar threats to other political figures like Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

On the other hand, Trump has also publicly expressed his desire to appoint Musk to an advisory position under his presidency, signaling a strong alliance between the two figures. This growing relationship between Musk and Trump has led some to question whether a Harris administration would target Musk for his political leanings, especially given his vocal opposition to limits on free speech.
