Now Elon is going too far imo.

He helped Trump for sure win the popular vote but I think Trump would have probably eeked out an EC win without him.

Do you people ever research a thought before posting?

Elon's net worth 11/1/2024 - $304 Billion

His net worth today - $423 Billion

Care to explain?

Elon put his fortune and businesses on the line to help Trump get elected.
If Trump had lost, he and his companies would be in a world of shite because the democrats would use every tool in the government yo go after Elon.
It's obvious why his net worth is larger today than it was.

Yes. Trump is NOT the Republicans in Congress... and when Turtle and GOPe made sure Thune won Senate Majority Leader, while brashly giving Trump a warning to "stay out of it," that should have been everyone's signal that this was the GOPe/uniparty/DC Blob's tactic to stifle Trump's agenda. He was not going to be able to ram everything he wanted through Congress. He was put in a position to have to play the game with the GOPe to get anything done. And all things considered, in barely over four months, he has gotten as shitload of great things done. I know the TDSers will dispute that but he's already done more in four months than most other Presidents do in four-year terms...

The Dems can prob shut down SpaceX through regulations if they take the WH and one branch of government. Someone like Shapiro or Newsom wouldn't but someone like AOC or Whitmer would IMO.

Elon is not addressing politicians in Congress

He is calling out Trump directly


He's also been calling out Republicans in Congress. Try to keep up.

He really screwed himself by getting involved in politics.


Particularly with a guy as petty as Trump.

He alienates more possible supporters than any other human in history

What if this whole spat is being orchestrated to get the leftists off of Musk’s back so he can be more successful with Tesla and his other ventures?

People keep saying this, but if that's the idea it's not going to work.

Elon would have to go full tilt "Trump is a dictator" to get any attaboys from the left

He's right. Elon's support basically gave permission to a bunch of people on the fence to vote for Trump. Trump doesn't win without Musk buying Twitter and then publicly supporting him.


hahaha!!! BS. No one that voted Trump over Kamala and Walz did so because Elon was in Trump's camp. They were voting for Trump over that other shite show whether Elon was on the Trump Train or not.

Elon buying Twitter was good but it didn't do anything to stop censorship and fake news/propaganda against Trump in the election. In fact, the media and Biden/Kamala Admin doubled down on all the bullshite they did that was exposed in the Twitter files... which, coincidentally, was almost completely ignored by mainstream media.

So, it's not absolutely true. Elon on the team was nice, but Trump was winning regardless. And if Elon wants to be a bitch right now about his EV subsidies, then that's on him. Good luck going it alone, EV boy, and alienating the only people who had your back.

Even if its not true in the moment its how a reconciliation can happen before midterms. Trump is malleable AF.

Comment I heard on television yesterday sums up things nicely...

First term Trump would have gone ballistic, Second Term Trump understands how the sausage is made now.

Elon doesn't have the political experience but he has a great deal of idealism...
