马斯克在民主党夺回国会后发帖自嘲:称太空激光这次没起作用

华盛顿——民主党在11月3日中期选举中夺回国会众议院与参议院后,本选举周期共和党最大的个人捐款人、特斯拉与 SpaceX 负责人马斯克(Elon Musk)11月4日凌晨在社交平台 X 发帖自嘲,称自己那套干预选举的太空激光这次没能起作用。
据《新闻周刊》对联邦竞选财务记录的统计,截至10月中旬,马斯克本周期已为共和党候选人与政治组织投入超过4.45亿美元,是本届中期选举最大的个人捐款人;另有统计口径把总额估至约4.74亿美元。他投入最重的是 Texas:据报道,他出资超过2亿美元支持共和党参议员候选人 Ken Paxton,但民主党人 James Talarico 最终胜出,成为1988年以来首位赢下 Texas 参议员选举的民主党人。
在 Texas 州长选举中,以反对数据中心建设为诉求之一的民主党人 Gina Hinojosa 爆冷击败现任州长 Greg Abbott 后,马斯克又发帖打趣说,把数据中心建到太空去,现在看相当有吸引力。
选前,马斯克曾警告,民主党若在2028年同时拿下国会两院与总统职位,美国可能走向一党长期执政。选前一天,希拉里·克林顿表示,新一届国会从明年1月起应开始追究马斯克等人的责任;特朗普则表示,若民主党在选后调查马斯克,他将出手保护、必要时发出预防性赦免。

Musk Jokes After Democrats Retake Congress: Says His Space Lasers Did Not Work This Time
Washington — After Democrats retook both the House and the Senate in the November 3 midterm elections, Elon Musk, the Republican Party's biggest individual donor this cycle and the head of Tesla and SpaceX, mocked his own side's defeat in a post on X early on November 4, joking that his election-interfering space lasers did not work this time.
According to a Newsweek analysis of federal campaign-finance filings through mid-October, Musk spent more than $445 million supporting Republican candidates and political organizations this cycle, making him the largest individual donor of the midterms; other tallies put the total near $474 million. His biggest bet was Texas, where he reportedly put more than $200 million behind Republican Senate candidate Ken Paxton, only for Democrat James Talarico to win, becoming the first Democrat to win a Texas Senate race since 1988.
After Democrat Gina Hinojosa, who campaigned in part against data-center development, upset incumbent Governor Greg Abbott in the Texas governor's race, Musk joked in a follow-up post that data centers in space were looking pretty appealing right now.
Before the election, Musk had warned that a Democratic sweep of Congress and the presidency in 2028 could put the United States on a path to permanent one-party rule. A day before the vote, Hillary Clinton said the new Congress should begin holding people like Musk accountable starting in January, while President Trump said he would protect Musk if Democrats investigated him, including with a preemptive pardon if necessary.
