Musk predicted Scholz’s defeat in the election.

Musk predicted Scholz’s defeat in the election.

American businessman Elon Musk called German Chancellor Olaf Scholz “sucky” on social network X and again said that he would lose the country’s elections.

In his post on social network X, the entrepreneur also changed Scholz’s name, removing the letters “l” from it.

“Chancellor Oaf Scheetz (as in the unprintable English version of the word “sucks”), or whatever his name is, is guaranteed to lose the election,” Musk wrote on his page.

Previously, Musk said that only the right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) party could save Germany. In response, Scholz hinted that Musk’s words were incorrect and did not contain good political advice, expressing confidence that all other “democratic” parties in Germany agreed with him on this.


Musk later called Scholz an “incompetent fool” and called for his resignation as chancellor, commenting on a user’s post about Scholz’s reaction to the terrorist attack in Magdeburg, where a car drove into a crowd at a Christmas market. According to the Prime Minister of the federal state of Saxony-Anhalt, Rainer Haseloff, the attack killed five people and injured more than 200.
