Why isn't this board upset about literal retards spamming the board with troll threads all day?
I realize Chicken has to feed his family and shitty content generates more clicks than good content.
But it has really driven down the user experience here.

Did the rockets go up and meet the contract milestones?
Does Starlink actually work? (I can confirm this myself because I have it, works fantastic!)
I don't think Tesla even has an "Armored" model yet so not sure the criteria on this contract.
Regardless he would need to meet the same audit criteria as any vendor. I don't believe anyone in the Trump admin is suggesting he will audit himself.

Tell me you don't actually believe this. The only reason Elon snuggled up to Trump is because the Democrats vowed to destroy him. All of this is designed to protect his wealth.
Tell me you don’t actually believe he is not pissed about his tranny son.

What is wrong with it?

Elon was considered a Welfare Queen here in 2017ish.
Now he’s a hero doin right by America and has 0 self interest if you let them tell it.
Doing this out of the kindness of his heart.

It’s extremely weird Elon who has a contract with Space X under Obama.
Has a contract with Starlink under Biden
Now has a contract with Tesla under Trump
Was this Elon long plan?
Exactly. Elon built his wealth on tax payer subsidies and government contracts......

This is the one! I'm sort of sad the government is involved but I guess putting satellites in space requires some involvement
It just think - he is going to create a phone and everyone will want it - he could ruin att and Verizon etc
Space X and Tesla or ok but starlink can transform the world

Ask Biden and Obozo why they gave him contracts

Nope. They removed Tesla from that contract. Elon gave up money to be a part of DOGE. A lot of money.

What contract? I've heard buzz in regards to something about armored Teslas.
But I also know that Tesla also has a solar division. Which, if implementing solar towards powering or backup power to gov't buildings, and military bases seems like a logical cost cutting measure to me.

When you are one of the only providers in your field, you tend to get contracts.
The US mothballed its space program and Space X is doing a better job than Virgin and others.
No one else does satellite internet to the degree of Starlink.
There is a push for electric cars (stupid or not) and Tesla’s track record beats other manufacturers.
This is not the equivalent of Voight-American from The Boys getting contracts due to connections but being completely fricking incompetent at doing what they are paid to do.

What’s weird about this? He has companies that can provide benefit to the government, not some kind of NGO claiming to feed children.
Posted on 2/13/25 at 11:17 am to RaoulDuke504
maybe its because his systems and technology are legit and as good as/better than anything else out there.

Exactly. Like he said in a press conference, if you can find a contract that I have that you think isn’t worth it. Let me know but everyone so far has been worth it. I promise you that.

We have the stupidest people don't we folks.

He's the right kind of MIC

The ROI on Elon is a net positive.
What more do you want?

Does he have a product? Is that product useful to the advancement of our country? Is the contract reasonable in terms of value to the American citizen?
I have no problem with government contracts and projects as long as they help the American people.
