Salon article so don't click if you don't want to. The tone of it is pretty hilarious. Came across this on Twitter.
quote:

n Musk has not had a great week.

First, one of the Thailand cave rescuers mocked his "involvement" in the mission to save the trapped Thailand soccer team.


Now reports indicate that Musk was one of the top donors for a Republican PAC named Protect the House.

Filings show that the Tesla and SpaceX CEO donated $38,900 to the PAC, which is dedicated to keeping Republicans in control of Congress. The PAC raised over $8 million in quarter two, according to filings compiled by ProPublica.

The top donors of the PAC include Sheldon Adelson, the Vegas casino magnate, and Robert McNair, the owner of the NFL's Houston Texans. Although Adelson and McNair's contributions far outweighed Musk's — Adelson and McNair each gave $371,500 respectively, while Musk gave $33,900 — Musk was one of the top 50 donors of the PAC.

Did the article mention that he gave tens of thousands of dollars to a Democratic PAC in March? I’m guessing since it’s Salon, probably not.

When he is excommunicated from the liberal circles for the Travesty of donating to republicans he will begin to donate solely to the right.

Earlier this month on Twitter he took a jab at socialists then said he was a socialist but not the kind that takes from the most productive and gives to the least productive. So basically he just wants to keep his money

Musk is a rich white male, it was only a matter of time before the (((media))) and the ultra left wing SJW's began coming after him.

The media has made a concerted effort to smear and denigrate him the past few months.

frick that guy.

Musk’s idea of a kid sized submarine may come in handy one day and could save lives. Who knows, it may have saved that diver who already died.

You would have a severely inflated ego to shite on someone making an honest attempt to save lives just because you got there first.
