Walz says Musk’s $1m voter giveaway reflects that Trump has ‘no plan’
Tim Walz, the Minnesota governor and Democratic vice-presidential candidate, said
Elon Musk’s plan to give away $1m a day in support of Donald Trump
is a reflection of a ticket with “no plan”.
Musk offered registered voters in swing states a chance to enter a $1m a day giveaway
if they sign his Super Pac’s petitions, “in favor of free speech and the right to bear arms”.
Experts have questioned whether the plan is legal or, in effect, buying votes.
“Well, I think that’s what you do when you have no plan for the public,” said Walz, when asked about the giveaway on ABC’s The View, a daytime talkshow.
“When you have no economic plan that’s going to benefit the middle class,
when you have no plan to protect reproductive rights,
when you have no plan to address climate change and produce American energy
– you go to these types of tactics,” said Walz.
As to whether Musk’s strategy was legal, Walz said: “I’ll let the lawyers decide.”
