He brought a billionaire friend, a $1 million check and a packer cheese hat. A pastor prayed for him. A huge fan begged him to follow X.
Elon Musk was the star of a 2,000-person rally in Wisconsin on Sunday night — ostensibly in a closely watched state justice contest for conservative candidates — just 36 hours before the opening of Election Day. Of course he is.
Billionaire Mr. Musk looks a lot like the candidate at this rally, putting his forward and center between each other in the last part of the election, neither of them is called Elon Musk: Elon Musk: Brad Schimel, a conservative in the game, and Susan Crawford is a liberal.
The closing moments of the campaign are highly orchestrated. Mr. Musk supported Judge Schimer’s visit on the eve of the election was voluntary – Judge Schimer did not even attend the event. Mr. Musk seemed comfortable making himself the faces that ended the argument and lived with the results.
Apparently, no one forced Mr. Musk to visit the state. Despite the pleas from Wisconsin Republicans, President Trump refused to do a similar trip, perhaps feeling that the game was a conservative more likely than to win, and the most outstanding booster could be marked with a blame.
Former Republican Governor Scott Walker is one of those who want to visit Trump. He said in an interview that he believed Mr. Musk was isolated to some extent from credit and fingertip politics.
“He doesn’t care,” Mr. Walker said. “It’s not all these people who don’t want to be nailed as counselors for losers.”
Hearing Mr. Musk telling this, the bet requires any intervention.
Mr. Musk only occasionally supported Judge Schimel a few weeks ago, but his comments on the game already existed. Mr. Musk and the Allied groups have spent more than $20 million to support him, and he boxed Tuesday’s elections in a doomsday way.
“What happened on Tuesday was a vote on political parties to control the U.S. House, which is why it is so important,” Musk said. “While any party controls the houses to a large extent controls the country and then guides the process of Western civilization. I think this is one of those things that don’t seem to affect the fate of mankind as a whole, but I think that will affect.”
A highly produced town hall in Green Bay, already playing a lot next to weapons ahead of the NFL draft next month, Mr. Musk pushed voter turnout. Republicans believe the key to victory is around what Mr Walker calls about the approximately 200,000 Trump voters who are unlikely to vote in annual and deviate annual elections. Mr. Musk aroused his anger among liberals, but was popular among conservatives.
Some of the people in the Green Bay crowd wore Musk equipment and said they wanted to see up close to the people they followed for more than a decade. “I’m here for Musk,” said Michael Labarbera, 25, who installed solar panels on the threshold hat he bought online. Retired John Rosner wore a different musk hat with a boring company name and said he was “basically meeting Elon” here, saying that the moment he called “I’m the closest I’ve ever been to him.”
Robert Cool, an 81-year-old retiree who has been sitting in an empty row and on the side of the auditorium since the fall injury, said he had decided to make Mr. Musk’s event the first political rally in his life. He said Trump’s rally wasn’t that accurate. ”
Mr. Cool said: “I don’t need it; I feel, I need it here.” He was bothered by the Tesla attack, and Mr. Musk himself complained on Sunday. “I support Musk more than anyone else in politics.”
Mr. Musk, known for his belief in himself, clearly met voters who believed in him. For those presenting, he is more important than when Mr. Musk was on a similar rock star tour in Pennsylvania five months ago.
This is the other side of the blame game. If Justice Schimel Win, Mr. Musk’s activities will surely gain great credibility.
Other Republican groups that may expect to spend money to support conservative candidates. Mr. Musk’s super PAC launched an ambitious ground game, and nonprofits previously supported by Mr. Musk spent millions on television advertising, claiming that this helped Mr. Schimel close the gap. Mr. Musk’s defender, like Walker, believes that the game became a winning game because of Mr. Musk’s spending.
Mr. Musk also brought publicity. A million-dollar raffle can sign a petition, and within 12 hours a suspicious plan opens the raffle only to Wisconsin residents who have voted – breaking down in the saturation of the state’s news cycle. (Just before the rally began, the state’s Supreme Court refused to stop the raffle.)
So, just like he was in Pennsylvania during last year’s election, Mr. Musk brought the oversized check to the winner on Sunday. He ran out his closest friend, Antonio Gracias, to introduce what Mr. Gracias called “heerious” fraud in Social Security. That’s all he signed and threw it into the crowd before he came on stage with a foam cheese hat.
The performer did all of this, too, even if he admitted that Judge Sheemel would likely lose. When Mr. Musk began an extensive Q&A session, Mr. Musk made a statement and Headgear became the head again.
“We have to pull a rabbit out of the hat,” he said, recounting Judge Schimer’s position in the betting forecast market. “In fact, we have to pour out the rabbit from the hat, like it’s the rabbit flying through the arc in the air and landing in a voting stall.”
