Elon Musk has said that the United States will lose the next war “very badly.” Those comments come at an interesting time when President Donald Trump is threatening to use military violence to take over Gaza, the Panama Canal, and the entire Arctic island of Greenland.
Donald Trump: The U.S. Will Take Over The Gaza Strip
However, Musk is using this as a scare tactic and wants the U.S. to beef up its weaponry so it can continue to expand its empire and conquer other slaves. “American weapons programs need to be completely redone. The current strategy is to build a small number of weapons at a high price to fight yesterday’s war. Unless there are immediate and dramatic changes made, America will lose the next war very badly,” Musk wrote on X.
“The current war in Ukraine is very much a drone war already,” Musk noted. “If there’s a major power war, it’s very much going to be a drone war.” He called for increased investment in drone production and a significant acceleration in manufacturing, warning against the pitfalls of preparing for past conflicts instead of future ones. “Countries pretty much are geared up to fight the last war, not the next war,” Musk cautioned.
The billionaire has long been a vocal critic of inefficiencies within the U.S. defense sector, arguing that excessive bureaucracy and outdated military strategies undermine national security.
Musk’s DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) has been working to streamline federal operations, including those related to defense. General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, the maker of the Predator drone, has urged DOGE to reform the Pentagon’s contracting system, calling the current process too slow and bureaucratic to counter threats from nations such as China and Iran, according to a report by RT.
Trump Will Not “Rule Out” Military Action To Take Greenland By Force
Because Musk is now a member of the ruling class, it is highly unlikely that comments about losing the next war were simply coincidental. He is a part of an administration that has already vowed to go to war in order to advance the U.S.’s empire.
