'Come on!' CNN conservative buried after insisting voters put their 'faith' in Elon Musk

CNN conservative commentator Shermichael Singleton argued Sunday that Americans should trust Elon Musk with their personal data, because there was "nothing nefarious" about Musk's intentions.

State of the Union host Dana Bash asked Singleton, "The notion of him really accessing personal data, a lot of information, and doing, we don't know what with it. That doesn't give you a concern?"

"No, it doesn't, because he's not going to do anything nefarious with this information," Singleton declared. "It's almost as if you're doing an accounting, a forensic accounting of a company. You need to have access of everything in order to say we should make cuts here, or this is ineffective or inefficient. He's doing what the president has mandated or him to do, in part, with the American people expected Donald Trump to do."

Singleton continued, "And as it pertains to Democrats, you know, Democrats have had every opportunity to come to the table to offer a solution to cutting government spending. Once upon a time, they actually believed in that. Instead, all I have heard is whining and complaining about what Trump is doing, what Elon Musk is doing.

Singleton's assertion drew major pushback from commentator Kate Bedingfield.

"By saying, 'He's not going to do anything nefarious with it,' you're putting a lot of faith in somebody whose stated aim is to 'move fast and break things.' And when you move fast and break things in government, it can have a real impact on people's lives. So, I think just asking the American people to 'trust' that Elon Musk isn't going to do anything they wouldn't be comfortable with —but their personal data — that's a tough sell for the American people."

Singleton interjected, "Democrats had four years under the Biden-Harris administration to bring up all of these things they're now complaining about. Cost of living, housing, etc. They said absolutely nothing — "

"That's not true and you know it! Come on!" Bedingfield exclaimed.
