Mayra Flores (R-TX), who just won her primary and received Elon Musk&#8217;s first Republican vote also spoke out against Democrat Jill Biden. She <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MayraFlores2022\/status\/1546715089855823873\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said<\/a>:\u00a0\u201cThey just don\u2019t get it. Latinos aren\u2019t buying their liberal pandering; we care about the rising costs of housing, food, gas, issues that impact everyday Americans. No matter how loud they yell their made up words, it won\u2019t change the reality of their failed policies.\u201d<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/trendingviews.com\/elon-musk-gop-vote\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Elon Musk revealed his first GOP vote went to Mayra Flores<\/a>.<br \/>\nRepublican Texas Congresswoman-elect Mayra Flores declared that she was thankful to learn that billionaire Elon Musk had cast his vote for her in the special election this week, the first time the Tesla founder has ever endorsed a GOP candidate.<br \/>\nMusk has been vocal about his ongoing frustrations with the left on a number of political issues, including free speech.<br \/>\n&#8220;I voted for Mayra Flores \u2013 first time I ever voted Republican. Massive red wave in 2022,&#8221; Musk tweeted on Tuesday as the Republican Flores flipped a blue district.<br \/>\nFlores acknowledged Musk&#8217;s endorsement with gratitude, but also praised what the business mogul has done to support the state of Texas and local communities.<br \/>\n&#8220;It&#8217;s not just about me, it&#8217;s about the people here in Texas District 34 that deserve prosperity in this area,&#8221; Flores told &#8220;Fox &amp; Friends.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;We&#8217;ve been taken for granted for a long time. Unfortunately, the Democrat Party feels entitled to our vote. And I don&#8217;t care what side you&#8217;re on, you must earn the vote of the people that elect you to be in that position.&#8221;<br \/>\nMusk appears to be disappointed with how far left Democrats have gone. Many voters complained that Democrats are too &#8216;woke&#8217; and their policies and values lack common sense. For example, Joe Biden picked Kamala Harris to be his running mate because she is a Black woman &#8211; not because she possessed the skills or talent needed to be a vice president. This was a diversity pick to appease voters, but now that Kamala Harris&#8217; approval rating is so low, it&#8217;s becoming more apparent than ever that choosing someone based on &#8216;woke&#8217; reasons is never a good decision.<br \/>\n<strong>EDITOR&#8217;S NOTE:<\/strong><br \/>\nJill Biden should also apologize to tacos for insulting them as well.
