SA floored by US lady’s reaction to Elon Musk’s home country 

Elon Musk has been a hot topic since US President Donald Trump came to power earlier this year. The dynamic duo have made controversial claims against the black-led South African government and extended an invite to Mzansi Afrikaners to their country.

After Musk ignored South Africans who tried to claim him a few years ago on Twitter, the country’s citizens no longer associated themselves with him, especially after he threatened to ruin the rainbow nation after the government rejected his Starlink proposal.

People from the US have also shared their concerns about the chap and wanted him out of the White House and their country. They questioned his position in American politics since he seemed to be glued to Donald Trump and acted more like a president than him at times.

One American lady expressed how much she disliked the billionaire during a random street interview that went viral on TikTok

The US woman replied after being asked:

“If Elon Musk were right here, what would you tell him?”

The fed-up American woman yelled:

“Go back where you came from.”

The lady was not aware that the billionaire was from South Africa and kept things moving after learning that. Her reaction was caught on camera and made many people laugh.
