Elon Musk Appears High on Stage, Struggles to Speak Amid Wisconsin Election Controversy

Elon Musk sparked controversy once again after appearing on stage in Wisconsin, where he seemed disoriented and had trouble articulating his thoughts. His appearance comes just ahead of Wisconsin’s election on April 1st, leading to speculation about his involvement in political matters. While attempting to address the crowd, Musk was met with heckling and protests, further fueling tensions around his recent actions.

Musk Accused of Trying to “Buy an Election”

The event in Wisconsin drew widespread attention, as many accused Musk of attempting to influence the state’s Supreme Court race. Critics argue that the billionaire is using his wealth to sway political outcomes, prompting the Lincoln Project to release an ad condemning his actions. The ad highlights Musk’s alleged efforts to control political institutions, impact social security, and support policies that benefit his business interests at the expense of everyday Americans.

Protests Erupt Across the U.S. and Beyond

Musk’s appearance was met with significant pushback. Protesters gathered in multiple locations, from Austin, Texas, to London, England, carrying signs denouncing his influence. Many demonstrators argue that Musk is out of touch with ordinary people and that his efforts to shape political and economic policies serve only his own interests. Despite these protests, Musk dismissed critics, claiming that they were “paid operatives” funded by billionaire George Soros—a claim for which he provided no evidence.

Billionaire Feud: Musk vs. Reed Hoffman

Musk also took aim at LinkedIn co-founder Reed Hoffman, alleging that Hoffman was secretly funding protests against him. “The probability is 100% that Reed is funding them,” Musk tweeted. In response, Hoffman fired back with a scathing rebuttal: “The probability that many, many people don’t like you? 100%.” The online exchange quickly went viral, with many mocking Musk for his accusations.

Musk’s Unscripted Rambling Raises Eyebrows

Beyond the protests, Musk’s speech itself became a topic of discussion. His remarks were widely criticized for being incoherent and rambling, particularly when he suggested that artificial intelligence (AI) should replace teachers in classrooms. Struggling to form complete sentences, Musk attempted to explain how AI could personalize learning for each student. His disjointed delivery led many to question whether he was under the influence.

Public Figures Warned About Musk Years Ago

Musk’s erratic behavior is nothing new. Years ago, comedian Kathy Griffin publicly called out his eccentricities, warning people not to fall into the “cult of Musk.” She even recalled an incident where Musk allegedly parked outside a friend’s house for four days—an anecdote that resurfaced amid growing concerns about his character.

A Growing Divide Between Musk and the Public

As Musk continues to insert himself into political and social debates, his public image is facing increasing scrutiny. While some still admire his technological achievements, a growing number of people see him as an out-of-touch billionaire whose actions are driven more by ego than by genuine concern for the public. With protests mounting and his every move under intense media scrutiny, Musk’s next steps will be crucial in determining whether he can salvage his reputation—or if he will continue down the path of controversy.
