The reason this is relevant is because he has spent the better part of a year complaining about “illegal immigrants” who are “invading” the country. But an old video from 2013 resurfaced on Saturday that appears to show the billionaire admitting he was at one point building his small business in the country illegally, describing it as a “gray area.”

Musk is African-American, so he's an edge case.

Not really. He's rich, that supersedes all other things such as race.

He's not African American and he's an illegal immigrant in the US.
