Musk plans massive push for GOP in midterms

I hate being in the position of knowing that the Republicans are basically useless, but that they are still 10 times better than the alternative and that they must win -
yet here we are.

yet here we are.
quote:
Tech billionaire Elon Musk is jumping into the midterms with a huge investment in a plan to boost Republican voter turnout, Axios has learned.
Musk is resuscitating his dormant super PAC, America PAC, which spent more than $260 million to help get President Trump elected in 2024.
America PAC will focus on door-knocking, digital advertising and direct mail aimed at turning out the conservative base, including voters who typically are less inclined to cast ballots in a non-presidential election year, sources with knowledge of the plans tell Axios.
Musk's representatives declined to specify exactly how much he'd spend. But given what he donated in 2024, the number is expected to be high.
Zoom in: Musk's pro-Trump donations through America PAC in 2024 made him the largest individual political donor in a single election cycle in U.S. history.
"America PAC was an essential partner for our historic GOTV operation in 2024, and their return for 2026 is a huge boost for Republicans across the country," James Blair, President Trump's senior political adviser, told Axios.
"We will again outsmart our opponents and ruthlessly execute our mission for the GOP between now and Election Day," Blair added.
The big picture: Musk's investment will add to a huge Republican cash edge over Democrats at a time when Trump's low approval ratings — particularly on the economy and the Iran war — have put GOP control of the House, and perhaps the Senate, in jeopardy in the Nov. 3 elections.

bullshite. Nothing is in jeopardy. The Marxist commies claiming to be Democrats have less than 2 million dollars for the mid terms. Besides the fact that they are broke. They are liberal commie Marxist assholes and no one with a hint of brain activity would vote theirselves into chains.

And this ^^^ is the crux of our fight, weak, squishy uncommitted incumbents.
Currently we have mostly ineffective and weak republican congressional members serving and the MAGA/America First candidates who are trying to unseat them are fighting a lot of Big Donor money

The GOP needs a radical wing like the commies. LaurenB, APL, maybe even Rand.
Will be business as usual if GOP hangs on

Not necessarily. Money isn't everything, especially when you're competing against millions of brain damaged DEI loving, Trump-despising wackjobs .

Occurred to me today that democrats pushing Elon Musk to the right is perhaps the greatest unforced political blunder in all of human history. And what’s worse is that they still don’t see their folly and continue to think making the richest and most powerful human a greater enemy will somehow work out well for them.

I wouldn’t be so cocky. The democrats have a history of pulling in money and paying off their massive debts by the billionaires they claim to hate. They’ll also funnel money through other means, but that’s been hampered somewhat if the USAID exposures recently.
