Errol Musk, father of tech mogul Elon Musk, has expressed his belief that the United States is facing a grim future, as he predicts the country’s white population will become a minority within two decades.
The 79-year-old businessman became visibly agitated during a heated exchange with CNN’s Donie O’Sullivan on the network’s new program, “MisinfoNation: White Genocide.”
The program delves into claims of a “white genocide” among South African farmers, a topic that gained attention earlier this year through comments made by Elon Musk and former President Donald Trump.
O’Sullivan highlighted the current discourse in the U.S., noting, “The major concern right now, and part of why South Africa is a focal point in the U.S., is that America is projected to become a minority white country for the first time in history over the next 20 years.”
Errol Musk seemed taken aback by this projection, asserting that a decline in the white population would be “a very, very bad thing to happen.”
He questioned the implications of such a demographic shift, asking, “Do you want to see the U.S. decline? Why? Is it a dislike for cars, electric vehicles, or technology, or is there something else?”
In a shocking outburst, he added: ‘You want to go back to the jungle?’
Musk added that he does not believe minorities were oppressed in South Africa during Apartheid, triggering a stern response from O’Sullivan who appeared visibly outraged at the argument.
Elon Musk’s father Errol said he believes the US is ‘doomed’ because its white population is on course to become a minority in the next 20 years
The businessman, 79, became visibly irate as he got into a hostile back-and-forth with CNN ‘s Donnie O’Sullivan, including over a dispute about whether minorities were oppressed in South Africa during Apartheid
Musk said that he ‘never saw’ the oppression of minorities in South Africa during Apartheid, and said that he believes white South Africaners ‘learned from Europe.’
‘And oppressed millions of Black people for decades?’ O’Sullivan replied.
Musk fired back: ‘No! How do you oppress? You know, we gave them work, we fed them.
‘They grew from a tiny little group into a massive group. That’s not oppression, that’s feeding them! You only grow big if you get fed. You only start at 800,000 and become 50 million if you get fed!
‘We fed them, for crying out loud! You know, enough with this nonsense.’
As O’Sullivan said that Musk should ‘understand that the Black population here was so oppressed under Apartheid’, the businessman said he ‘never saw this oppression you’re talking about.’
‘You never saw it?’ O’Sullivan responded, and after Musk doubled down, he added: ‘Yeah, because you’re white.’
The focus on the US population becoming minority white stems from recent projections from the census bureau, which found that the demographics could see whites become a minority by 2045.
The data shows that minorities will total 51 percent of the population within the next 20 years, including 24.6 percent Hispanic, 13.1 percent black, and 7.9 percent Asian.

The explosive allegations against Errol Musk are reportedly why his son Elon, the richest man in the world (pictured in the Oval Office in May), has been estranged from his father for years
The interview comes weeks after a bombshell report in the New York Times alleged that Errol was accused of sexually abusing five of his children and stepchildren since 1993.
The report claimed that the explosive allegations are why his son Elon, the richest man in the world, has been estranged from his father for years.
Among the most disturbing of the allegations are that one of Errol’s stepchildren that he was accused of touching was just four years old at the time, and claims that he went on to have a child with her.
On several occasions, family members have contacted Elon for assistance and he has sometimes taken action to intervene, the Times reported.
Errol is accused of sexually abusing five of his children and stepchildren in South Africa and California, as per police and court records, personal correspondence, social workers and interviews with relatives, the Times reported.
The earliest allegation dates back to 1993 when the businessman’s stepdaughter, then four years old, accused him of touching her at a family house.
Over the three decades of allegations, three separate police investigations were opened, according to records and relatives cited by The New York Times.
But none have yielded any results, and Errol has not been convicted of any crime. Two of the inquiries ended, while it’s not clear how the third concluded.
Errol fiercely denied the allegations to The New York Times, calling them concocted by family members who were ‘putting the children up to say false things’ in an attempt to swindle money from Elon.
The patriarch called the reports ‘false and nonsense in the extreme’.
He claimed he had a positive relationship with the X owner and that the two of them are ‘very close’.
In one email, Errol claimed to be aware of only a single abuse accusation, while simultaneously offering explanations for the circumstances around two others, The New York Times reported.
