Elon Musk Defends Calling Mark Kelly a Traitor Over Ukraine

You know, a lot is coming your way, uh, but sometimes you say stuff or

post stuff that gets attention. Um,

you give it out, in other words. Uh, Democratic Arizona Senator Mark Kelly

posted

on X about his trip to Ukraine to push for continuing to send US

weapons and support there, and you posted that he was a traitor.

Why, why do that?

Well, I think, uh, somebody should be c- should care about the interests

of the United States above the interests of another country.

Sure.

And if they don't, they're a traitor.

Yeah, but he's a decorated veteran, a former astronaut, a sitting US senator.

It, it doesn't mean, uh, he's... it's okay for him to put the interests of

another

country above America.

Obviously, there are some Republicans who think

supporting Ukraine is the right

thing still, but there is a battle back and forth about how

that w-- How do you

think it comes to an end?

Um, well,

I think there will be a negotiated peace.

Uh, and

the thing that we should be concerned about is

we should e- have empathy for the thousands of people

that are dying every day in

trenches

for no movement in the, in the lines.

So the b- the borders remain the same.

For the past two years,

thousands of people have died ev- every week, uh, for nothing.

For what?

Um, and I, I, I take great o- great

offense, uh, at those who,

uh,

those who put the appearance of goodness over the reality of it.

Those who virtue signal and say, "Oh, we can't give in to Russia," but have

no solution to stopping thousands of, of kids dying every day.

They just want that to continue forever.

I have contempt for such people. I wanna make that clear.

Yeah. So you're optimistic-

Because they're, because they're virtue signaling

and th- their, their lack of a solution means that

kids don't have a father.

It means that parents lost a son.

For what?

Nothing
