Phoenix Mercury guard Natasha Cloud called out billionaire Elon Musk this week.
Elon Musk, who now has a role in Donald Trump’s cabinet, played a role in leading a conservative rebellion against a bipartisan deal to avert a partial government shutdown, and Cloud was not happy about it.
In the days following the political drama, Cloud took to social media to blast the billionaire entrepreneur.
“So when y’all gone tell Elon to go back to Africa?” Cloud said in a post on X, the social media website that was formerly known as Twitter.
“Im so glad ALL these billionaires have no idea how the 3 branches of government work…. or how a bill gets passed into law. Shoutout to the 38 Republicans who shot the bill down in the House while being threatened & blackmailed,” Cloud added in a follow-up post.
This is not the first time that Cloud has weighed in on politics.
Shortly after the results of the 2024 presidential election, Cloud expressed her outrage at the women in the country who voted for Donald Trump.
“The privilege of celebrating rn is exactly what’s wrong with us as people,” Cloud wrote. “I am truly worried about my fundamental human rights.”
“Racism, misogyny, and hatred of women are so deeply rooted into everything that is America. Until we fix the roots…it will never grow,” she added.
Clearly, she is not happy with the Republicans in power right now.
