Summary
Elon Musk and his America PAC face lawsuits in Texas and Michigan from voters claiming they were misled by Musk’s million-dollar giveaway, which allegedly promoted itself as a random sweepstakes.
Plaintiffs Jacqueline McAferty and Robert Anthony Alvarez argue they wouldn’t have provided personal information or signed a petition if they’d known winners were chosen based on their support for Donald Trump, rather than randomly.
Musk’s lawyer recently revealed that the PAC selected winners from swing states as spokespeople, contradicting claims of a nonpartisan, random giveaway.
But using gambling addictions to do so is.
It is like offering heroin when you clean your room. “But cleaning your room doesn’t sound like it should be illegal”
I guess, you are right. But that’s not what’s illegal, ironically. Directly offering money is according to the other one who linked me an US law.
