Elon Musk jumped to the defense of Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) on Sunday, claiming Vice President Kamala Harris wants the human race to meet extinction while siding with the embattled Republican vice presidential nominee.
Vance has been dogged all week after comments he made to Tucker Carlson in 2021 resurfaced and went viral. During the interview, Vance said:
We are effectively run in this country via the Democrats, via our corporate oligarchs, by a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they’ve made and so they want to make the rest of the country miserable too
[…]
How does it make any sense that we’ve turned our country over to people who don’t really have a direct stake in it?
Vance has not apologized for the comments but did state this week that he held no grudge against cats or people who wish to have children but are unable to.
As he continued to navigate the backlash, Vance shared a clip of Harris speaking that was posted by Donald Trump Jr. In the video, Harris said she had heard from scores of young people who had expressed to her they had felt “climate anxiety.”
Harris said that anxiety leads people to ask themselves if “it makes sense for you to even think about having children.”
Vance shared the clip and commented, “It’s almost like these people don’t want young people starting families or something. Really weird stuff.”

Musk weighed in and in response to Vance described Harris as “an extinctionist”
“Shamala is an extinctionist. The natural extension of her philosophy would be a de facto holocaust for all of humanity!” he wrote.

Musk has complained that global overpopulation is not an issue and that people actually need to have more children.
“It’s completely the opposite,” Musk previously told The Wall Street Journal. “If people don’t have more children, civilization is going to crumble. Mark my words.”
