Elon Musk's father Errol triggers outrage as he claims Michelle Obama 'is a man'
Social media users criticized Errol Musk, the father of Elon Musk, for making baseless assertions that former First Lady Michelle Obama is "a man" during a podcast appearance, as reported by Marca on Saturday, February 15. This unfounded rumor has persisted within far-right communities despite lacking any evidence. Errol tried to present this discredited claim as "widely known information" while also making other highly inappropriate comments about Michelle.
Errol Musk's Statements About Michelle Obama
During his guest spot on the 'Wide Awake Podcast' with host Joshua Rubin, Errol first targeted former president Barack Obama by stating, "We found out Obama is a queer who is married to a man who wears women's clothes. We all discovered that. It's not general knowledge."
When Rubin expressed shock at Errol's assertion that Michelle Obama is a "man," Errol insisted, "Certainly, you aren't aware of that? Joan Rivers said it in public, and she died two weeks after, by the way. They got rid of her, yes. So that's general knowledge. You can search for it anywhere."
According to Marca, Rivers, a comedian, had joked about Michelle's gender identity in 2014. Two weeks later, she died from complications during brain surgery. No reliable connection has ever been shown between these events.
Errol Musk's Remarks About His Son Elon
In the same discussion, Errol Musk spoke against his son Elon, the technology billionaire, regarding his parenting methods, alleging that he "has not been a good dad." He mentioned the sad death of Elon's first child from sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) at only 10 weeks old and said, "The baby received too much care from nannies and, unfortunately, died while under their supervision. If Elon hears me saying this, he might shoot me or something. But anyway, that's my opinion."
He also found fault with how his other grandchildren were raised, stating, "They were too rich, too many nannies."
He then fathered five children with the same woman. Each child had their own nanny. The situation was truly strange."
Elon, reportedly the father of at least 12 children, has a strained relationship with his father and has previously called him "evil" and "a terrible human being."
