cuban and musk have a war of words
ifeng.com technology news beijing time, september 30, local time on sunday, american billionaire mark cuban continued to have a war of words with elon musk online. he warned musk not to support trump because trump will betray musk sooner or later.
musk has publicly expressed his support for trump and established a super pac to do so.musk posted on x on sunday, reaffirming his support for trump and accusing democrats of deliberately bringing immigrants into the united states and key swing states to bolster support for the party.
musk said on x: "very few americans realize that if trump is not elected, this will be the last election."
after seeing the news, cuban called musk a "loyal, loyal warrior" for trump and warned that his loyalty wouldn't always be reciprocated. "elon, there will come a time when you need trump's help. you will feel you have the right to ask him for help and get help. you have been his loyal, loyal warrior. you have invested tens of millions of dollars in support him politically," cuban wrote, "and then, when you need him most, you'll realize, like so many others before him, that he's only true to himself."
cuban says musk gets nothing in return for supporting trump
musk has not yet responded to cuban's post, but david sacks, another trump supporter and musk fan, commented: "classic case of projection. you're describing your views on politics." projection refers to interpreting other people's actions or perceptions in terms of one's own opinions or feelings.cuban responded that what he said had "nothing to do with politics."
cuban and musk have been feuding over x for months, mostly for political reasons.their confrontation began as early as january this year. at the time, musk questioned cuban's defense of diversity, equity and inclusion (dei) initiatives.
as the u.s. election approaches, musk and cuban have been more outspoken about their political stances online recently. cuban said he speaks frequently with harris' campaign team and that he has become something of a surrogate for harris, appearing on talk shows to defend harris' fiscal policies. cuban, the owner of the nba's dallas mavericks, even offered to take a potential position in the harris administration. "this is something i can do and make an impact," he said previously.
as of press time, musk and cuban had not commented on their latest dispute. (author/xiao yu)
