    Trump supporter Elon Musk says Harris ‘exceeded most people’s expectations’ in debate

    Billionaire Elon Musk contended that Vice President Kamala Harris “exceeded most people’s expectations” during Tuesday night’s debate , though questioned why she would not enact the change she is campaigning on.

    Similar to many others who watched the debate, Musk argued the moderators, ABC News’s David Muir and Linsey Davis, were unfair toward former President Donald Trump . Despite this, he reiterated his support for Trump over Harris. Musk said the former president would accomplish things for the country instead of “just saying nice-sounding words.”

    “After all, if Kamala can do great things, why hasn’t she?” Musk wrote on X. “Biden rarely shows up for work, so she’s basically in charge already. The question comes down to this: do you want current trends to continue for 4 more years or do you want change?”

    While I don’t think the debate hosts were fair to @realDonaldTrump , @KamalaHarris exceeded most people’s expectations tonight.

    That said, when it comes to getting things done, not just saying nice-sounding words, I strongly believe that Trump will do a far better job.

    The billionaire also poked fun at musician Taylor Swift’s recent endorsement of Harris on Instagram, in which Swift described herself as a “childless cat lady." Musk joked on X that he would give Swift a child of her own and would “guard your cats with my life,” a reference to Trump’s claim that Haitian migrants are eating cats and other pets in Springfield, Ohio.

    Fine Taylor … you win … I will give you a child and guard your cats with my life

    Many criticized the moderator’s handling of the debate, with billionaire Bill Ackman questioning why they were only fact-checking Trump. Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) also called the moderators “pro-Kamala activists” in the “3-on-1 debate.”

    Why do the moderators only fact check @realDonaldTrump and not @KamalaHarris ?

    Shortly after, Harris’s campaign proposed debating Trump again , saying the vice president was “ready." Trump adviser Jason Miller stated that Trump would do another debate on NBC on Sept. 25 .

    Fox News has also offered to conduct a hypothetical second presidential debate , which would feature Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum as moderators. The proposed dates for this debate would be either Oct. 9 in Arizona, Oct. 15 in Georgia, or Oct. 16 in North Carolina.

    @Elon ROTFLMAO Really, tRump got fact checked because he was lying. They were actually doing their jobs rather than letting him slide when he lied. He's not used to being called out for lying. Past debate moderators slept through his lies.Finally, they have stopped letting him lie unchecked. Hmmmm, Harris didn't get fact checked because she didn't lie. It's tRump's own fault that he's being fact checked because he lies so much.Tell him that if he doesn't want to be fact checked, all he has to do is not lie.Good Luck with that.....
