Workers Say They Were Tricked and Threatened as Part of Elon Musk’s Get-Out-the-Vote Effort
America PAC door knockers were flown to Michigan, driven in the back of a U-Haul, and told they’d have to pay hotel bills unless they met unrealistic quotas. One was surprised they were working to elect Donald Trump.

Vote, get active, volunteer against this
This is literally human trafficking. They were transported believing they would have room and board and then coerced to work to get that benefit.
This is awful. At the same time, it's not at all surprising that they had to resort to these sort of tactics in order to get anyone to canvas for them.
Yeah, we all saw it. It was very public.
I’ll be glad to finally see some sort of comeuppance in a decade or so, maybe.
e: Perhaps he’ll even be fined 0.0000000000000001% of his net worth. That’ll show him.
Honestly, the only shocking part is that people are shocked. It's not like Elon wasn't quite open about the piece of shit he is. I'll never understand why people choose to cherry pick the good stuff people in power say. I mean you don't even have to catch him at a bad time, the guy is a walking wreck, the only success he has is when he hops on a successful ship before he fucking sinks it. So in a way I'm glad he joined Trump, hopefully he can work his magic and bring his shit down too.
Who woulda thought that Elon's PAC would have such unrealistic quotas akin to N. Korea’s poopie laws. I bet the problem is communism. Vote for Trump so that billionaires like Elon can protect the masses from communism by... distributing his ill-gotten gains indiscriminately. Huh...
Members of America PAC realizing they signed up to be victims :0
And they will probably still vote for trump big dummies.
No way.
Yes way.
