Comedian Kathy Griffin has publicly expressed her skepticism regarding the legitimacy of Donald Trump’s victory in the 2024 presidential election. Despite facing criticism and being labeled as wearing a “tinfoil hat,” Griffin remains steadfast in her belief that the election was not conducted freely and fairly. During a Substack Live session with writer E. Jean Carroll, which was later shared on Griffin’s YouTube channel, she candidly discussed her views. Carroll, who has previously accused Trump of sexual misconduct, asked Griffin about her thoughts on the election outcome. In response, Griffin acknowledged that her opinion might be controversial but insisted it was her honest perspective.

Griffin’s comments have sparked discussions, particularly regarding her suspicions about Elon Musk’s involvement in government affairs. Musk, known for his roles as founder and CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, Inc., had been appointed to lead the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) under Trump’s administration. His task was to reduce federal spending by $2 trillion. However, Musk announced his departure from DOGE in a post on X on May 28 and has since voiced criticism of several Trump administration initiatives, including a significant legislative bill signed by Trump on July 4.

Griffin expressed distrust towards Musk’s connection with the government, stating that she harbors suspicions despite acknowledging how unusual her stance might seem. Her remarks have resonated with some individuals who share similar doubts about the election process. Carroll noted that there is a growing number of people who agree with Griffin’s perspective, particularly concerning Trump’s victories in key swing states.

In a separate conversation with journalist Don Lemon, Griffin reiterated her belief that the 2024 election was compromised. She suggested that tampering may have occurred, further fueling debates about electoral integrity. As discussions continue, Griffin’s statements highlight ongoing concerns and controversies surrounding the recent election cycle.
