NEW YORK, November 5. /TASS/. Elon Musk, one of the leading business tycoons in the United States, has suggested that warmongers in the US leadership are supporting a “puppet regime” led by Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris.

“The watchers want the Kamala puppet regime (is) because they want more war,” Musk told US TV host Joe Rogan in an interview.

According to Musk, those in the US administration who support Vice President Harris are “profiteering from wars”, a situation he described as “crazy”. He also claimed that so-called “war profiteers” despise Republican candidate Donald Trump.

Previously, Musk had floated the idea that current President Joe Biden could be replaced by Harris in the presidential race to allow more control over the situation.

The United States holds elections on November 5 to choose the president, the governors of 11 states and two US territories, one-third of the Senate and all members of the House of Representatives. Trump and Harris are the main contenders for the presidency. Trump, who served as the 45th president from 2017 to 2021, lost the 2020 election to Joe Biden and is now trying to reclaim the White House. Harris has served as vice president since January 2021.
