As protests around the country feature protesters tearing down the American flag and replacing it with the Palestinian flag, or at least trying to, billionaire SpaceX founder and X owner Elon Musk argued that there\u2019s a simple solution to that issue. In his view, those who tear down the American flag to replace it with another country\u2019s should be given a one-way ticket to that other country.<\/p>\n

Such is what Mr. Musk posted about on Thursday, May 2, sharing his thoughts on such a deportation campaign in the context of the campus protests and then posting a poll to ask his followers what they think of the idea.<\/p>\n

In the May 2 post, he said, \u201cProposed law: if someone tears down the American flag and puts up another flag in its place, that person should get a free (but mandatory) one-way trip to that flag\u2019s country.\u201d The poll got about 1.5 million votes, and close to three-quarters of those polled said that they agreed with the proposed law.<\/p>\n

In an addendum to the original poll and tweet, Mr. Musk added that, under his policy, the deportees could eventually be allowed back, but only after spending enough time in the other country to the point of being able to understand what it is like. He said, \u201cI\u2019m not saying they can\u2019t come back, but they have to experience that country for some period of time before returning.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Replying, one commenter drew attention to when, after passing the most recent $100 billion foreign aid bill, members of Congress waived Ukrainian flags. That commenter said<\/a>, \u201cYes, and we should explore the same idea for any politician waving the flag of a foreign country in our Congress.\u201d Replying, Elon said<\/a>, \u201cThat was weird. At least wave the American flag too!\u201d<\/p>\n

Another commenter, Tennessee Republican Robby Starbuck, suggested an additional program to go along with Elon\u2019s, saying<\/a>,<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
