Elon Musk shares bizarre response to Taylor Swift endorsing Kamala Harris: “I will give you a child”

Elon Musk has responded to Taylor Swift’s endorsement of Kamala Harris in the US presidential election in a post on X.Entrepreneur Musk, who owns X and renamed the platform from Twitter last year, has endorsed Harris’ rival in the election race, Donald Trump, and in recent years has increasingly voiced support for right-wing politicians.After Swift announced on Instagram yesterday (September 10) that she will be voting for Harris and her running mate Tim Walz in the upcoming election, Musk replied on X, “Fine Taylor … you win … I will give you a child and guard your cats with my life.”The reference to Swift’s cats is in response to the singer’s post, in which she included a photo of herself holding Benjamin Button, one of her three cats.

She signed off her message as “Taylor Swift, Childless Cat Lady” too, clearly poking fun at recent comments made by Trump’s running mate JD Vance, in which he described prominent Democrat politicians as “childless cat ladies”.Fine Taylor … you win … I will give you a child and guard your cats with my life— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) September 11, 2024Musk has since doubled down on his comments, posting another message on X today in which he wrote, “Toxoplasma gondii is a danger to our democracy.” The parasite sexually reproduces exclusively in cats, and studies in the past have linked it to conditions including obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and schizophrenia – as a result, some news outlets have called the findings “crazy cat-lady syndrome”.Toxoplasma gondii is a danger to our democracy— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) September 11, 2024When Vance first made his “childless cat lady” comments, they were met with an outpouring of criticism, most notably from women without children – Jennifer.
