Peter Thiel reluctantly agrees with Elon Musk on the demise of America under Dem control

Peter Thiel reluctantly agreed with Elon Musk's belief that if the Democratic Party won the 2024 election, it could consolidate power into a one-party state.

"I didn't want to believe Elon when he said this, so I texted him and told him I hadn't believed you when you said this at first. But I think this is because, psychologically, I don't want to believe that."

"The sense in which I felt that he was correct was if Trump, with much better substance and much better on so many things, could not win in 2024 against the machine, then the machine would always win."

"And if the machine always wins, then you no longer have a democracy. You certainly no longer have a democratic process within the Democratic Party. We can always debate the election shenanigans in November 2020."

"The far more extraordinary thing was in March of 2020 when Biden came in fourth or fifth in Iowa and New Hampshire and then somehow got rammed through South Carolina. All the other candidates drop out."

"So, this extremely non-democratic primary in the Democratic Party in 2020 led to an even less democratic process in which Biden was replaced with Harris."

"If the machine could defeat Trump, I thought it was reasonable that it would gain even more power and somehow be unbeatable, and the country would become like California, a one-party state."
