Musk's defense of the AfD followed his incendiary comparison to the US Democratic Party under Barack Obama, asserting that their policies are essentially identical and lacking any differences.
Musk tweeted that the AfD would be Germany's only savior, positioning them amidst rising populism and highlighting their appeals against immigration and the EU.
Criticism poured in from political figures such as Sen. Chris Murphy, who labeled Musk's remarks as 'huge lies,' showing the contentious nature of his political comparisons.
Activists from the AfD have made connections with Trump's camp as they attempt to gain traction ahead of Germany's upcoming elections, indicating a strong populist movement.
