Steve Bannon vs Elon Musk: Accusations of Racism and Evil Threaten Trump’s Circle
Former Trump adviser Steve Bannon has launched a vehement critique against Elon Musk, labeling him as “racist” and “truly evil.” Bannon’s condemnation centers on Musk’s support for the H-1B visa program, which permits U.S. employers to hire foreign workers in specialized fields. Bannon argues that Musk’s stance undermines the “America First” principles of the MAGA movement.
In an interview with Italy’s Corriere della Sera, Bannon expressed his determination to diminish Musk’s influence within Trump’s circle, stating, “I made it my personal thing to take this guy down.” He further criticized Musk’s political involvement, suggesting he should “go back to South Africa.”
This internal conflict highlights a growing rift within the MAGA movement, as factions debate the role of foreign talent in the U.S. workforce and the influence of tech magnates in political spheres.
Musk, who has significantly contributed to Trump’s campaign and is poised to co-lead the Department of Government Efficiency, has not publicly responded to Bannon’s remarks.
The escalating tensions between Bannon and Musk underscore the challenges in balancing nationalist policies with the integration of global expertise, a debate that continues to shape the future direction of the movement.
