Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Tuesday, October 22, 2024

As we have noted several times, the Trump campaign has outsourced its get-out-the-vote (GOTV) operation to third parties. This is unheard of in modern politics, but probably not illegal. If some billionaire wants to spend his own money hiring people to knock on doors and encourage them to vote, it's probably legal as long as the campaign and billionaire don't coordinate.

This is what the Trump campaign has done, although the "not coordinate" part is doubtful since Donald Trump talks to Musk, one of his outsourcers (outsourcerers?) multiple times a week. As long as they just discuss golf and how Melania is taking the campaign and who she will vote for, it is probably OK. If they get into politics, maybe no so OK. In any event, as we have also pointed out a couple of times, while Musk does know a lot about making electric cars and firing rockets into space (and catching them on the way down), he doesn't know much about running a GOTV operation, and it is starting to show.

If Trump doesn't win the real vote in swing states by at least 3 points Dems might be able to harvest enough ballots to eke out a win.

Musk's biggest problem is, most his followers are Russian trolls.

"Most?"

I'm not ready to go there just yet.

But "many," or more likely "some," yeah, I could go with "some."

One wonders if Musk is on board with Trump's deliberate attempt to get out the Nazi, anti-Jew vote by praising HItler to the heavens or to hell.
