I Will Give You A Child And Guard Your Cats With My Life – Elon Musk mocks Taylor Swift
Elon Musk—the billionaire X owner and vocal supporter of former President Donald Trump—made a bizarre post taking aim at Taylor Swift soon after she made her highly anticipated endorsement for Vice President Kamala Harris, stating he will “give you a child and guard your cats with my life,” drawing mockery on X.
made at 12:46 a.m. EDT, has already been viewed more than 39 million times and liked more than 200,000 times as of Wednesday morning.
Though it’s unclear what Musk was referring to, his pledge to “guard” Swift’s cats could reference false allegations of Haitian immigrants eating pets in Springfield, Ohio, that have gone viral and been parroted by Musk, Trump and his running mate, Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio.
Springfield, Ohio police told Forbes there have been “no credible reports” of pets being harmed or eaten—but Trump supporters on social media have used the issue as a rallying cry, portraying the former president as a savior of pet cats.
Musk’s tweet might also reference Swift’s post: She posted her endorsement Tuesday night with a picture of her holding her cat, signed “Taylor Swift, Childless Cat Lady”—a dig at Vance, who previously criticized Democrats as “childless cat ladies.”
Musk made other posts in support of Trump following the debate, including one in which he alleged the debate moderators were unfair to Trump and another where he claimed “we will never reach Mars if Kamala wins.”
