Go all in on space, electric cars, and data centers.

Texas will be calling for his head. It’s just a question if Louisiana will be dumb enough to vote in this hicklib farmer instead next year. Would be the nail in the coffin for LSU too imo.

Be careful now... if this happens, I'll be moving to Louisiana within 5 years.

I can't wait for "Abbeville" to be mentioned in the same manner as Cape Canaveral

At this point I don’t think SpaceX and Tesla employees will be voting blue ever again.

"Welcome to Waggaman - Gateway to Mars!"

If anyone can build a hurricane repelling machine, it'll be Elon Musk.

No thanks? The state was a blue shitehole for 8 years with JBE and being red didnt help much before… it’ll be a blue shitehole again.

Everyone complains about our politicians but it’s really you dumb arse voters.

Like Burt said, I’d rather not have the blue vote workers that come with the business.

Jamie Davis isn’t winning governor. He ran at the most opportune time for democrats in the last two decades against an opponent who was not well known in the southern part of the state and still came up short. Republicans also saw how close the senate race was, and won’t be taking chances on the governors race.

Yep. My post didn't have to mention it.

The engineers can work from anywhere. The blue collar workforce is already here.

And for "Abbeville, we have a problem" to become a common saying!

He should open it up to any company that has a principal CEO like Elon that isn't a liberal. We would then need to make sure we strengthen our laws on illegals.
