What did Elon Musk say in support of Taylor Swift?

On Tuesday night, after a debate many considered victorious, Kamala Harris finally secured Taylor Swift’s endorsement. Writing beneath a photo of herself with a cat, Swift praised Harris as a “quiet, gifted leader” before signing her announcement, “Taylor Swift, childless cat lady.” Most people recognized her tongue-in-cheek reference to JD Vance’s mocking comments about women not reproducing. And then there’s Elon Musk, a Trump fan and fundraiser, who responded to her joke with the creepiest thought he could think of. “Good, Taylor,” Musk wrote on X late Tuesday night, “you won… I will give you a child and protect your cats with my life.”

I guess it’s no surprise that Musk, who has 12 known children and has been claiming for years that underpopulation is more dangerous than global warming, would immediately offer to impregnate a woman who mentions not having children. The fact that he openly posts sexual harassment on his own website, where content moderation seems to be a disaster? That’s perfectly normal.
