Azealia Banks makes dramatic endorsement switch as she lashes out at ‘dirtbag’ Elon Musk

Azealia Banks launched an extraordinary attack on Tesla CEO and X/Twitter owner Elon Musk, as she announced that she would be voting for Kamala Harris in the US election in spite of her reservations about the Democratic presidential candidate.

The controversial rapper, who last year said she would be voting for Harris’s Republican rival Donald Trump, took to X on Monday (November 4) to warn her followers against allowing Musk to wield any further influence over US politics.

“I really think keeping Elon Musk away from any type of political power in the USA is tantamount to any issue on the table here,” she wrote of the tech billionaire, who has become one of Trump’s most loyal celebrity supporters.

She continued: “You have to be a complete idiot to think that dirtbag cares about anyone or anything other than himself. He’s already been given way too much tax payer money – Allowing him to ascend to any position of political authority is very f***ing dangerous.

“One does not become the richest man in the world because of honesty and good character lol, you must be an expert liar, thief and cheater to become that.”

The Independent has contacted Musk’s representative for comment.

She went on to address America’s influx of migrants, shutting down claims that the Democratic National Committee (DNC) “flew in a bunch of illegal aliens simply for votes.”

That notion is “actual stupidity,” she said, before claiming “the DNC doesn’t need to import people to win an election, they can and will just steal it like they did in 2020.”

“I will be Voting For Kamala Harris tomorrow because Elon Musk… belongs no where near American Politics. The End,” she concluded.

Banks’s endorsement of Harris comes a year after she told The Standard that she would be voting for Trump in the 2024 election because “he’s f***ing funny.”

“He’s been through how many bankruptcies? How many wives? How many television shows? Seriously, nothing can take him down,” she said at the time.

She joins other celebrities, including Harrison Ford and Jennifer Aniston, who have also endorsed Harris in the days just before the election.

Though Harris has garnered the support of several high-profile celebrities, Trump can count on the likes of country stars Jason Aldean and Kid Rock, and actors Zachary Levi, Dennis Quaid and Mel Gibson, all of whom have endorsed him.

While Harris has been overwhelmingly favored by the Hollywood elite, current polls indicate she and Trump are neck-in-neck in key battleground states.
