When conservative influencer Ashley St. Clair announced that she had given birth to Elon Musk’s child, his 13th, the reaction on the right was explosive — and deeply divided.

Others were outraged: “Much of conservatism is filled with godless, hypocrites who couldn’t care less about conserving traditional family values,” according to former Turning Point USA staffer Jon Root.
