Reminding everyone that the bill contains a change to the constitution and the balance of powers between the branches of government.
If this passes the executive branch can no longer be bound by the judicial.
It’s a dictatorship the second the house passes this, then the only way Trump will ever leave office is when he dies.
Do it you coward
No no, please, do a Nader, be a Bull Moose.
This’ll be great!
He’d draw what, a 90/10, 80/20 split of Rep to Dem voters, as well as the truly brain dead of the independents?
Please Musk.
Absolutely do this thing that if it worked would guarantee your failure, and would make it much easier to radicalize the Dem party after their most corporate of corporate donors leave them for you.
Don’t back out! This isn’t Twitter again, put your back into it!
The new Ross Perot!
Someone thinks they should have backed the Libertarian Party
I’ll join, I’ll still vote for sane social democratic candidates or the least of all evils, but I’ll join and pretend to prop up the numbers!
Honestly I’m finding their falling outs funnier each time it’s happened. What is this, number 3?
It is too late Elon you enabled and funded this nonsense.
Hopefully he splits the Republican party and ensures a Democratic majority everywhere.
Do it! Do it! Do it!
If Trump deports Musk im getting a MAGA hat lol
Smells like the fascists want a new party.
No no, it’s better than that, SOME of the fascists want a new party. I like those odds.
Kayfabe nonsense or a narcissistic delusion, either way it’s an absurd fantasy
BREAKING
We all gave that word a pass when we accepted it as part of the title of that one tv show.
Shits already broke.
BREAKING: All articles in [clickbait website] now starts with BREAKING.
BREAKING: I just took a successful and satisfying shit.
BREAKING: I just took a rather unsuccessful half shit that was very unsatisfying and will have to try again later.
Musk could have been a superhero. He could have just made EVs and not done a Nazi salute … things would probably be fine.
No. He had to tamper in politics and likely give Trump the win. Musk was too dumb to realize he would get thrown to the side the minute he said anything but “yes” to “Great Leader” … now he is thrown to the side and is too dumb to realize it’s over for him. He is hated on all sides.
He can kiss Trumps ass or fade in to obscurity. Those are his options.
Nazi salute…? You mean not called a man trying to help a bunch of kids trapped in a cave a pedophile, right? Or a thousand other insane things way before a fucking salute, right?
Hell if he wasn’t at a rally for the orange dictator I would say he could make EVs and get away with a salute here and there.
Not really. Musk was a snake oil salesman for years. The people who believed in him were foolish to do so, all of that long before his salute and his budget concerns. We should also remember that fascists don’t have a long game. They really are as ridiculous as they appear. There was no possibility for Trump or Musk to maintain a positive image, except through brute force threats.
While it is true he has been crappy and not really that smart pretty much from the onset, the world would have been happy to continue perpetuating the myth of Musk as the real world Tony Stark.
People wanted that narrative, certain people profited immensely off the myth, and there wasn’t much practical downside apart from it being really unjustified for these folks to get so rich, but we accept that downside constantly.
I honestly think he’s still team Trump and always was, he just dropped the mask and is now trying desperately to put it back on to save his stock.
None of those people are on anyone else’s team. They’ll set up alliances where they can mutually profit, but the second any of those profits slip to one side, they’re unceremoniously ousted.
He’s always been team Elon, and team Elon also likes to be contrarian and ‘edgy’, so that aligned with being pro Trump. He also wants to ditch government spending and regulation, which aligns to a claimed GOP principle (though they love spending so it’s a lie). So now he’s faced with the reality that everyone else already knew, the Republicans spend like crazy, even less responsibly than Democrats.
He basically wants a party to represent the perspective of ‘screw poor people’ as it’s one and only tenant.
Am I the only one here who predicts that Elon will jump out of the window soon?
Trump’s great friend and inspiration has already sent his oligarchs flying for less.
It’s likely
He still has immense personal wealth, and he can sway politics with these mountains of money . Time will tell.
A little late there champ. You enabled the (other) fascists already, not sure there is coming back.
