Comedian and Trump-deranged critic Rosie O’Donnell made international headlines this week with a bizarre claim during her first Irish TV appearance: Elon Musk “stole” the 2024 election for President Donald Trump. Speaking on RTÉ One’s The Late Late Show, O’Donnell alleged Musk’s control over the internet—via X and Starlink—enabled Trump’s historic sweep of all seven swing states (The Wrap). Let’s dissect this baseless narrative and expose its flaws.
The Baseless Accusation
O’Donnell’s claims hinge on Musk’s financial support for Trump and his companies’ technological reach:
“I question why for the first time in America[n] history a president has won every swing state and is also best friends and his largest donor was a man who owns and runs the internet.”
But swing-state victories aren’t unprecedented (Reagan’s 1984 landslide included similar sweeps). Election officials in Georgia, Arizona, and Wisconsin have already debunked Starlink conspiracy theories, confirming zero evidence of interference (WABE). Even left-leaning NPR admitted fraud claims dissolved as results solidified (NPR).
Musk’s Patriotic Support vs. “Owning the Internet”
Elon Musk donated over $290 million to pro-Trump causes in 2024, making him the election’s largest individual donor (CNN). But contributions ≠ corruption. Unlike shadowy Super PACs, Musk’s spending was transparent and lawful. As for “owning the internet”? Starlink provides rural broadband—a service praised by bipartisan local officials for expanding voter access.
“He is leveraging the platform to convince the public that elections are rigged.”

Yet Ahmed’s own group, CCDH, admitted Musk’s posts garnered 17.1 billion views—proof of grassroots enthusiasm, not fraud.
The Real Election Integrity Story
The 2024 election was the most secure in U.S. history. Despite foreign interference attempts by China and Russia (Wikipedia), Trump’s policies like voter ID expansions and ballot-tracking tech ensured transparency. States like Georgia audited results twice, confirming Trump’s 312-226 Electoral College margin.
Compare this to 2020, when Democrats weaponized COVID to push mail-in ballot chaos. Now, they’re recycling debunked tactics to gaslight Americans.
The Left’s Hypocrisy Exposed
When Trump questioned 2020 irregularities, media outlets like The New York Times called it a “threat to democracy.” Now, O’Donnell’s conspiratorial meltdown gets softball treatment. Even CBS News—no friend to Trump—admitted:
“These claims are false on their face. Every voter registration requires ID under federal law, and our voter records are as accurate as ever.”

Where’s the outrage over O’Donnell’s post-election tantrum? Silence.
Stand With Patriots, Not Conspiracies
President Trump’s 2024 victory reflects Americans’ rejection of Biden-Harris failures: open borders, inflation, and weak leadership. Musk’s investments amplified Trump’s America First message—a democratic right, not a crime.
