Elon warned that the legal system has a “huge problem,” arguing some judges are really political activists wearing judicial titles. The comment taps into a growing public frustration that court rulings are starting to look less like law and more like ideology. When courts are seen as political actors, trust in the justice system erodes, and once that credibility is gone everything downstream gets messier fast: “There is a huge problem with activists that are actually politicians in judges’ robes, and that needs to stop. It’s undermining the integrity, the reality, and the perception of the integrity of the legal system of the United States. These fake judges should be ashamed of themselves. They are just pretending to be judges, but they are not; they’re making the law instead of implementing the law. It’s wrong.”
