Donald Trump on Saturday said there would be “serious consequences” if tech mogul Elon Musk funds Democratic candidates to run against Republicans who vote in favor of the GOP’s sweeping budget bill.
“If he does, he’ll have to pay the consequences for that,” Trump told NBC News in a phone interview, but declined to share what those consequences would be.
“He’ll have to pay very serious consequences if he does that,” he added.
Trump also said he has no desire to repair his relationship with Musk after a feud between the two men erupted into public view earlier this week.
I think the democrats will face terrible consequences if Elon funds them.
They’ll happily take his money. That’s all they care about.
To any democrats paying attention: if you serve Elon, you don’t get my vote.
Fair enough. The money still gets got.
Money vs moral high ground. Anyone who says no to the money says no to having any say in politics. They would be considered an idiot in my book. There are 0 candidates who win elections from a moral high ground in the U.S.
Make sure there are no strings attached, take the money and make changes. The strings right now can be as simple as getting those people out of office. Anyone who thinks not taking his money would help them is an absolute idiot that SHOULD NOT ever be in charge. As they are completely incompetent and make horrible decisions. Musk is a horrible person. Not taking his money extends the fascist regime the MAGA crowd supports.
This isn’t a bowling league where you are trying to friends with the monster. This is a failing once Republic that needs saving. Take his money, get shit done. You don’t need to do anything he wants. You just need to fund your campaign.
