The democracy of Venezuela have fallen in the hands of billionaire and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk because he took the challenge to fight against President Nicolas Maduro on national television, on the condition that if he wins, the president will have to step down.
Taking to the social network X, its owner Musk responded to the challenge given to him by Maduro. “I accept,” he wrote, as the response sparked multiple reactions online.
Taking to X, President Maduro said, ‘Social media creates a virtual reality, and who controls the virtual reality? Our new archenemy, the famous Elon Musk. Do you want to fight? Let’s do it. Elon Musk, I’m ready. I’m not afraid of you Elon Musk. Let’s fight, wherever you want’.
If I win, he resigns as dictator of Venezuela.
If he wins, I give him a free ride to Mars.

Responding to Maduro’s challenge, Musk said, ‘Maduro is a big guy himself and probably knows how to fight, so this would be a real fight. Zuck is a little fella, so that would be a short fight lol’. ‘If I win, he resigns as dictator of Venezuela. If he wins, I give him a free ride to Mars’, he said on X.
The animosity started fermenting between the two prominent figures as political turmoil ensued in Caracas. Maduro and Musk have clashed in the past and the president has accused the SpaceX CEO of attacks against Venezuela and also planning the alleged computer hacking at the National Electoral Council (CNE).
