Elon Musk is in the rabid lefts crosshairs but hes not the true target

Democrats are having a communist moment — yet again.From New York to Colorado, the most radical candidates in multiple races are poised to win in November, dragging the party ever more leftward. Just as in every other communist revolution, their first goal is to make foes of society’s most productive and wealthy people.And right now the richest of them all, Elon Musk, is Public Enemy No.1.What’s happening to Musk is straight from the pages of Saul Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals” playbook, specifically Rule No.
