Just breaking from the new election book by Alex Isenstadt
Elon said "you've got to pick him so they don't take you out for real" per Isenstadt, who was the Trump camp approved biographer of the 2024 race
Here's link to Alexs podcast appearance with the lovely Tara Palmieri

I wonder what the post Trump era will be like. What kind of mental gymnastics will the left go through to paint the next republican candidate/president as a fascist. And will that open a few more eyes to the tactics of the left.

JD was already being heavily promoted to DJT through the conduits of Don Jr., Bongino and Tucker, among others. If Musk jumped on the JD bandwagon, he was already late to the party.

That's perhaps the dumbest thing I've read all day. Is JD Vance a bullet magnet or something? Is he a superhero? How does Vance prevent assassination?

I have never heard Elon talk bout this in the dozen or so podcasts and interviews he has done.
He stated he had thought about maybe supporting Trump in 2024 but wasn't certain until Butler.
I believe he called Trump that night to tell him he was going public the next day.
Vance was already picked at that point, he got the call the day before Butler.

J D will be president and he will serve 2 terms going down in history as one of the greatest.

I would try to explain this to you, but I’m afraid you wouldn’t understand.

Vance is good friends with DJT, Jr. and was pushed hard by him. That's why he was chosen

Vance couldn't carry Rubio's jock strap.

Just look at the playbook of how they treated DeSantis when he was a rising star during COVID.
The MSM and liberals will vilify whoever it is. Every election will be a “battle for the soul of our nation and democracy”
It’s no wonder the democrats have become a party of ****s and Marxists. Ever since 2008 they have been brainwashed relentlessly… seriously, look up how many democrats supported gay marriage in even the early 2000s… not many
Edit:
We ran fricking Bush, McCain and Romney in back to back to back cycles, the definition of “moderates” and they tried to paint them as right wing. This unity the left preaches is unobtainable unless we are all leftists

Good info

That pretty much debunks the rumor. I distinctly remember Elon not really being around Trump at all until after he endorsed Orange.

You are wrong
They all told trump this but the one who Trump listened to the most was Charlie Kirk about this.

Vance was picked because of his billionaire buddies.

Was this influenced by Seattle Public Radio?
Is Orry Goldsmagler mentioned? Or Deitrik Sommelierhausen? LOL
I know. It is a real book and a link.
If true, makes me wonder how long Elon has been on-board behind the scenes and what his role was.

The implication is that if those who want to assassinate the President believe that the VP would be as bad or worse, then they would refrain from assassinating him.
