Musk promises to award $1 million each day to a signer of his petition



Billionaire Elon Musk promised on Saturday to give away $1 million each day until November's election to someone who signs his online petition supporting the U.S. Constitution.


亿万富翁埃隆·马斯克周六承诺,将在11月的选举之前,每天赠送100万美元给签署他支持美国宪法的在线请愿书的人


He wasted no time, awarding a $1 million check to an attendee of his event in Pennsylvania aimed at rallying supporters behind Republican Donald Trump. The winner was a man named John Dreher, according to event staff.


他毫不迟疑地在宾夕法尼亚州的一场活动中向一位支持美国共和党人唐纳德·特朗普的与会者颁发了100万美元支票。根据活动工作人员的说法,获奖者是一名叫约翰·德雷赫的人。


"By the way, John had no idea. So anyway, you're welcome," the Tesla founder said as he handed Dreher the check.


“顺便提一下,约翰对此毫不知情。所以,没关系,欢迎你,”这位特斯拉创始人在把支票递给德雷赫时说道。


The money is the latest example of Musk using his extraordinary wealth to influence the tightly contested presidential race between Trump and his Democratic rival Kamala Harris.


这笔资金是马斯克利用其非凡财富影响特朗普与其美国民主党对手卡马拉·哈里斯之间竞争激烈的美国总统选举的最新例证。


Musk started America PAC, a political action organization he founded in support of Trump's presidential campaign. The group is helping mobilize and register voters in battleground states, but there are signs it is having trouble meeting its goals.


马斯克创立了“美国政治行动委员会”(America PAC),这是一个他为支持特朗普总统竞选而成立的政治行动组织。该组织正在帮助动员和登记战场州的选民,但有迹象表明它在实现目标方面遇到了困难。


The Harrisburg event is the third in as many days in Pennsylvania, where Musk is painting November's election in stark terms and encouraging supporters to vote early and get others to do the same.


哈里斯堡的活动是马斯克在宾夕法尼亚州连续几天举办的第三场活动,他将11月的选举描绘得非常严峻,并鼓励支持者提前投票,并让其他人也这样做。


He said on Saturday that if Harris wins, it will be "the last election," suggesting the U.S. will no longer exist.


他在周六表示,如果哈里斯赢得选举,那将是“最后一次选举”,暗示美国将不再存在。


He also said the two assassination attempts against Trump prove he is ruffling feathers and upending the status quo in ways Harris won't. He said that's why no one is trying to kill Harris.


他还表示,对特朗普的两次刺杀未遂证明他正在触动利益并颠覆现状,而哈里斯却不会这样。他说,这就是为什么没人试图刺杀哈里斯。


"Assassinating a puppet is worthless," Musk said, reiterating an argument he has made in a social media post.


“刺杀一个傀儡毫无意义,”马斯克说,并重申了他在社交媒体上发表的观点。


The petition Musk is asking people to sign reads: "The First and Second Amendments guarantee freedom of speech and the right to bear arms. By signing below, I am pledging my support for the First and Second Amendments."


马斯克要求人们签署的请愿书写道:“第一和第二修正案保障言论自由和持有武器的权利。通过在下面签名,我承诺支持第一和第二修正案。”


Attendees of Saturday's event had to sign the petition, which allows America PAC to garner contact details for more potential voters that it can work to get to the polls for Trump.


参加周六活动的与会者必须签署请愿书,这使得美国政治行动委员会可以收集更多潜在选民的联系方式,以便为特朗普拉票。
