Team Trump Panics as “Hell” Breaks Loose in Elon Musk’s Voting Plan
Elon Musk’s America PAC has Republican operatives more than a little concerned about Donald Trump’s ground game.
Nine Republican operatives and canvassers seemed alarmed about issues with the super PAC, which has reportedly collected a plethora of faked canvassing data, NBC News reported Friday.
As the PAC’s phony canvassing numbers were revealed , an operative close to the effort told NBC that “all hell has broken loose” inside the America PAC.
The PAC has reportedly received a large quantity of suspicious data from its canvassers, following reports that some had learned how to spoof their location to create the impression that they’d visited voters’ homes.
Earlier this month, data leaks revealed that roughly 24 percent of door-knocks in Arizona and 25 percent of door-knocks in Nevada in a single week had been flagged as “unusual,” an internal metric used to indicate fake door-knocks. America PAC has spent more than $54 million on its vendor in those states, Blitz Canvassing, which is also organizing efforts in Michigan and North Carolina. Blitz Canvassing is one of four vendors employed by the PAC.
The PAC has pushed back on reports that fake canvassing was impeding Trump’s get-out-the-vote effort.
America PAC has also reportedly engaged in dubious treatment of its canvassers. Two canvassers anonymously told NBC News they were made to knock on doors outside of Charlotte, North Carolina, as Hurricane Helene rolled in on September 27. One of them said that their direct manager told them to go door to door, despite leadership instructing them to make calls instead.
“If I go into the troubles that we went through just getting into the field, working, I’m talking about soggy literature, right?” the canvasser told NBC News. “Ponchos on ponchos.”
“It was very bad,” they added.
The second canvasser said that many canvassers quit after that experience.
In Michigan, some canvassers funded by America PAC were reportedly given unrealistically high expectations, under extremely poor working conditions. They claimed that they were threatened financially if they performed poorly. Canvassers said that they’d been misled by the PAC and a video showed that they’d been carted around in the back of a U-Haul, instead of the rental cars they were promised. One canvasser even said they were surprised to learn that they were canvassing on behalf of Trump.
Trump’s allies have practically begged the former president to ditch Musk, and his malfunctioning canvassing efforts, as conservative activists and leaders in battleground states reported that they’ve seen little return from the America PAC’s efforts.

Is anything 'real' related to musk and his campaigning or trump?
money
this is like a trump wet dream fantasy ...
a multi-billionaire gives millions to the campaign, then as an unpaid contractor pays people to do the grassroots legwork ..., while violating their rights and labor laws ..., that same person receiving billions in gov't contracts and business subsidies ... ... how very maga ...
The perfect grift.
he's way out there on the political ledge, it's raining, and freezing temperatures are in the forecast ...
The definition of an oligarchy…all power concentrated in the hands of a few.
As always, as predictable, follow the money.
Celebrate, don’t complain.
I'll do my celebrating after Kamala is sworn into office.
I’ve learned to celebrate every good thing received.
trump's team has already figured out he can't win with 47% of the vote. big lie 2.0 is already on the launch pad.
His "secret" weapon ?
there's already a severe shortage of secret service agents and US marshals, and joe now has full immunity per SCOTUS to act in the best interest of the nation ...
Too bad he can't just call off the former 'president' traitor's secret service detail because he's a traitor, let the billionaire fend for himself, he can hire proud boys and maga cult members. They're obviously willing to die for this traitor.
maybe a firing squad?
What is that I should celebrate regarding musk and trump scum?
