Elon Musk is a South African who lives and operates in the US. Why tf is he trying chiming in about any German electoral process?

How about Apartheid Clyde stays in his lane.

He's building a Tesla factory in Germany. So that might be why. Also it's not just a right wing party, but the most extreme right wing party in Germany that isn't forbidden yet.

Wait he hasn't finished building it and it's already suffering daily casualties? Yikes.
