Elon Musk Spotlights ‘Overwhelming Support For Donald Trump

According to the latest X post by the American entrepreneur Musk, the United States people currently have “overwhelming support for Trump.” This statement by Elon Musk cites a poll conducted on X as of August 22.

For context, the poll results revealed that 73.2% voted in favor of the Republican presidential candidate. On the contrary, 26.8% voted in favor of Kamala Harris. These results have sparked discussions primarily because nationwide poll results show Harris leads Donald Trump in the ongoing presidential campaign.

Meanwhile, some users on the platform even slammed the poll results, deeming it to be a result of Musk’s far-right follower base. Notably, the voting saw participation from over 5 million users on the social media platform.

Nevertheless, it’s worth mentioning that Harris currently losing the optimistic tide in the elections, especially during the Democratic National Convention.

Democratic Party Outweighs Republican?

According to the NY Times’ latest poll, Harris’ winning bets stood at 49%, whereas the Republican’s stood at 47%. These results come amid Donald Trump’s initial pro-crypto stance and Harris facing a backlash on false promises for the crypto sector.

Notably, the Democratic Party previously offered to jack up pro-crypto policies. However, industry veterans call it another bluff from the Democratic Vice President. Moreover, Cardano co-founder Charles Hoskinson conveyed that he has ‘zero’ trust in Harris’ claims, while also asking for SEC Chair Gary Gensler’s resignation.

On the other hand, Donald Trump also appears to be looking to offer Elon Musk a cabinet role, initiating further discussions across the broader landscape.
