“The people who willingly voted this in are not going anywhere anytime soon,” said Musk’s transgender daughter, Vivian Wilson.

With Donald Trump possibly bringing her father Elon Musk with him in his return to the White House, Musk’s transgender daughter, Vivian Jenna Wilson, has announced plans to leave the United States entirely.

In a message posted Wednesday on Threads, Wilson said Trump’s sweeping victory “confirmed” that she is better off elsewhere more accepting of transgender people.

“I’ve thought this for a while, but yesterday confirmed it for me,” said Wilson. “I don’t see my future being in the United States.”

She added, “Even if he’s only in office for 4 years, even if the anti-trans regulations magically don’t happen, the people who willingly voted this in are not going anywhere anytime soon.”

In responses under her post, comments ranged from assurances to caution that the grass isn’t always greener somewhere else.

Wilson, the elder of twins Musk fathered with author Justine Musk, has an infamously strained relationship with her father, with her accusing him of being an absent father and “serial adulterer” who was unaccepting of her transition.

Wilson cut ties with Musk in 2022, according to a Walter Isaacson biography. Musk previously labeled Wilson a “communist” who was brainwashed into “thinking that anyone rich is evil.”

Although she mostly stays out of the public spotlight, she has taken opportunities to speak out against her father’s increasingly unhinged behavior.

In response to Musk’s offer to impregnate Taylor Swift after she endorsed Kamala Harris for president, Wilson called her father’s comments “heinous incel nonsense.”
