One majorly overlooked point from
the public drama from Trump and Elon is how absolutely ridiculously wrong the left politicans and media had in the power dynamic between them and they whipped their minions into literal protests over nothing.

How much more evidence do we need that the lefts headlines and catch phrases mean nothing and aren’t based in any reality?

I’d have to imagine the Trump admin believes Elon cost them that SC race in Wisconsin . They see him as a liability and disposed of him.

It's hard to overstate how much BS the media churns out daily.

Trump doesn't get elected without Elon.

In fact, without Elon we're probably all still getting scolded by people for not getting vaxxed, having to hear J6 was an insurrection and all that other bullshite.

The richest man in the world literally risked his life and wealth for the cause, and all he got in return was shite on by the same people he helped.

Trump is out here just straight up committing libel against him because Musk cares about the actual issues instead of being "loyal" to a man.

That news article isn’t just poor journalism, it’s downright fiction

They’ll just shift the narrative to something like, “media pressure on the Trump admin about President Musk made him fold and expel Musk.”

Something like that and they’ll take a victory lap. Predictably, their audiences will eat it up.

Trump was getting elected after Butler regardless of Elon. Fact. And just browsing your post history it seems you’ve come down with some TDS. Get help.

Its an interesting point. Some in the media pushed the co-president line while others anticipated their eventual "break up" and were looking desperately for any signs of a crack. Anybody with more than room temp IQ knew Trump and Musk would eventually have a falling out but not many anticipated it being so explosive..so fast. Musk wanted the influence and if he would not have picked fights with Trump's cabinet secretaries and generally acted like ..well acted like Elon he probably wouldve held that influence to some extant. Also I think the point of whipping up public disapproval was to hurt Musk financially and attempt to drive a wedge b/t Musk and Trump. They were successful with the former (along with Musk's own actions)..hard to say with the latter.

So yea I think many in the media probably did misunderstand the power dynamic but they had other reasons to push the story....and none more so than Musk himself mis understood this dynamic.

Trump doesn't get that far without Elon. You're still living in a state censored twitter world.

I voted for Trump, the only TDS I have is Trump Disappointment Syndrome.

No, it's pretty clear Musk just wants to limit government spending, corruption and reduce the size of government.

These claims are just the same kind of bullshite the media pushes. He doesn't need influence.

No, I'm telling you that Elon buying twitter was what allowed people to have free speech again and without it we are still stuck in the propaganda and bullshite that existed before he bought it.

Hell, Trump could be in prison if things hadn't changed.

He is part of the American people. Just like me, just like his kids.

What is that you think he needs from anyone else?

Same as any business man. Customers and a business environment friendly to selling his products and services. Due to the nature of his products and services and the amount of government contracts that are tied to his businesses his stakes are higher than most. Do you think he is just sitting on 400 billion in cash and can do what ever he wants?
