The second chairmanship of Donald Trump was given a spinning blow by voters in Wisconsin on Tuesday as he had chosen a liberal for the Supreme Court of the state, despite its powerful advisor Elon Musk raced millions of people to run the elections.
In two months in its barnstorming at the White House, Trump celebrated a pair of the House Race in Florida, which remained in the Republican hands.
But in his first actual election test of his polarity presidential, according to American media, Liberal Judge Susan Crawford and his attempt to load a new Republican on the Visconsin Supreme Court came ahead of the Brad Shimel.
Trump had previously pushed Visconsin’s apex court to the Orthodox judge who ran for the spot, stating on social media that Shimel was a “Patriot”, while Craford was a “radical left Liberal”.
Echoing his general extreme rhetoric, Trump claimed that Crawford has “the history of closing the child molester and rapist” and that a win by him would be a “disaster”.
‘The fate of civilization’
Musk, who has inspired Trump’s radical efforts to make a lot of efforts by the US government in a right-wing cost-coting drive, moved himself to Wisconsin to support Shimel.
“This is one of the strange circumstances where a small election in a small election will determine the fate of Western civilization here,” Musk said in a discussion on his social media platform X on Tuesday.
The main attraction of his weekend journey in the upper midwestern state, handed over money to anyone signing a petition against repeated-strategic “activist judges” to help defeating Trump Democrat Kamala Harris in November.
On the left side of the Democratic party, a major force senator Berney Sanders told supporters on X that “he had the power to reject” Musk and our election bought the elite. “
Beyond the testing of the public mood, the visconsin result will decide that the Supreme Court of the state – the voting district borders – the Tilts majority left or right.
In Florida, two seats for the US House of Representatives were for tombs to fill the vacancies in the Republican Stronggolds, released by Trump’s National Security Advisor Mike Waltz and the nominee for the Attorney General, Matt Gatez failed.
On Tuesday evening, the media called the race for the sixth district of Florida in favor of Republican Randy Fine, in which Trump tweeted: “Congratulations, Randy, a large -scale cash, a great win against avalanche.”
Shortly thereafter, media outlets also called a special election in the first district of Florida for Trump-Sam-Sama Republican Jimmy Patronis.
Posting on social media, Trump credited his party’s victory in both the deep red districts that “the support of Trump, as usual, proved to be far more than the Democrats Forces of Evil.”
Democrats have been accepted since both Trump and Congress Chambers lost to the presidency in November, and expected that Florida could have a decent performance and a win in Visconsin.
In Florida, both of them lost double -digit percentage margin in special elections.
Big bets, big money
Dressing the bet of competition in Wisconsin, the race has recorded a expense – most of the advertising and efforts, especially by musk, to drive.
Musk, who spent about $ 277 million in Trump’s 2024 election campaign, presented a check of $ 1 million to two voters and $ 100 to each other voters who signed his petition.
According to the Brain Center for Justice, more than $ 53.3 million has been spent by Shimel and his Backers, including Musk’s USA $ 12.2 million from PAC.
Crawford’s campaign and his support have spent an estimated $ 45.1 million.
This expenditure has made the Wisconsin race the most expensive in the US judicial history, the Center said.
Billionaire Musk had an enthusiastic crowd at the Green Bay rally over the weekend, but the role of the south African -born elite in the Wisconsin elections has provoked more resistance as support.
At a Crowford rally, 65 -year -old retired electrical engineer Rob Patterson gave an indication, giving Kasturi a direct armed salute.
“Our Supreme Court is not for sale,” read the signal.
