It will probably be the EU, UK, and several other nations who do something about it and decide he's an extremist and no longer welcome.

Musk can buy governments. The UK's ministers in particular seem to be selling themselves at bargain prices at the moment – they won't stop him.

He could easily buy the Tories and no doubt Nigel Farage is ready to be Musk's little bitch, but we do actually have some marginally more principled politicians in the UK who wouldn't sell out their country the way Republicans have sold out theirs.

This is the problem. We’re in a world where a life-changing amount of money for anyone else on earth is just pocket change for one man. He can buy *anything* he wants.
