McGregor, in his tweet, addressed the heads of political parties and stated that they were his rivals if he got into politics. Musk, in response to McGregor’s tweet, jokingly said, “I think you could take them all single-handed. Not even fair”

McGregor, in response to Musk, tweeted a long draft file explaining why he should come into politics and why the people of Ireland need a change.
