It was known. You were just too cowardly to report on it
This is the part where they convince you that Elon was the problem, not Trump.
He’s in the final stages of Rudy Giuliani. Next will be some kind of financial meltdown.
Oh please please hold a press conference at four seasons…
Doge means it’s 3 seasons now.
3 seasons harem and tractor supply
Winter is coming.
Please, please be k-holing when it happens.
Trump hired Elon. He’s still the problem.
Los dos?
Which is why it’s so interesting Katie Miller joined him to do pr or whatever, while her husband is still on Trump’s coattails
I mean was it planned for Elon to be the fall guy from the start or is this a continuation of the messy drama from Trump’s first presidency?
Neither. The point of this kind of chaos is that it’s exhausting and demoralizing to keep up with for the opponents of a fascist, while the fascist’s supporters are literally too stupid and misinformed to even know it’s happening.
Trump is an idiot, but this is his one actual skill, and he’s better at it than anyone I’ve ever seen.
I was reading an article on MSN about how expensive divorce is, and the comments from the manosphere were extremely exhausting.
Fascism doesn’t allow for two strong men, and both Musk and Trump think they are the next Fuhrer. One of them was always going to fall. Right at the end of the election Musk was in a dominating position, he was called the shadow king, and Trump the vice president.
Musk flubbed everything when he overreached with that Nazi salute. He was ready to claim his Fuhrer throne but he just tanked his company profits, and then cried about it.
Trump at least consistently grifts the right wing crowd, Musk did the most awful rebrand in history from Tony Stark-like futurist to Dark MAGA weird cringe Nazi.
Musk never had a shot and never had any influence. He was never a shadow king, just a dog to be put down if it disobeyed
I agree he never had a shot but he definitely had some influence.
But that influence was just money, and there are other influential people out there who don’t want to be in front of the camera 24/7, so he has to go. Rest assured he’ll be toiling behind the scenes for the same ruling class goals as all the others though.
It wasn’t just money, it was also rigging the election
Only influence as someone accomplishing only what Trump wants. He was only listened to when his goals fully aligned with Trump’s. Such henchmen only have the illusion of influence, as they have no real freedom to act on their own.
It’s a perfect example of the illusion of control Trump sells to the rich; they will only benefit by playing along, and will not get anywhere if they don’t. He really doesn’t need to listen to them, as they have no real power to wield over him.
Unlike under the liberal system where they could do any number of things to undermine politicians’ power because politicians were bound to the ballot box, Trump effectively isn’t anymore. He might legit die before his term is up, and is capable of thoroughly corrupting the system enough to remain in power without elections if he does. He is redesigning the government to not need congress or the judiciary, meaning nobody will really be able to stop him within the system.
Violent methods become the only option, and there is no shot the wealthy libs will actually be brave enough to act out. Most will just ride the grift until Trump dies, knowing full well they’ll face little accountability for sponsoring death camps.
I mean, I think its just bad theater.
This is straight out of a pro-wrestling playbook: Heel (professional wrestling)
The role of a heel is to get ‘heat,’ which means spurring the crowd to obstreperous hatred, and generally involves cheating and any other manner of socially unacceptable behavior.
Obstreperous ob•strep•er•ous adjective noisy and difficult to control: the boy is cocky and obstreperous.
TIL a new word, from wrestling of all things!
Oh look, it’s the rats fleeing a sinking ship.
More like “Elong outlived his meger usefulness and Trump booted him like he always meant to.” Trump has long disliked Elonga, and as soon as Elongat showed any signs of acting independently, he was doomed. He was kicked out for the same reason McCarthy was replaced by a nobody like Johnson, the same reason a weakling like Pence was needed for VP. There’s just no room on it for anybody with independent power; only the king can sail.
The ship is far from sinking, and not recognizing that we’re stuck with Trump until he dies is wishful thinking.

Elon is getting the media to downplay his naziism by letting everybody know that the drugs made him do it. 30 days in rehab and BOOM those chiseled trucks will start selling again.
those chiseled trucks will start selling again
No one’s buying those things ever. Maybe if dumb emerald boy managed to somehow recover his image from being a nazi the cars would sell again. But the trucks fucking suck shit on literally every metric. He produced the Homer and he’s gonna tank the company with it.
I live in rural Canada. It’s truck country. Like, every second vehicle. No one here would have been caught dead in a cyber truck BEFORE his shenanigans. I remember showing my family the concept photos and they reacted, poorly. There is no fucking way those sales go up.
I’m 100% certain that people who actually use trucks for their intended purpose were not the target demographic – it was rich kids who wanted a cool tech toy, while also playing dressup with the “labourer” aesthetic.
Yep. Monied tech bros from the bay area & etc was always the target demographic. It was never expected to sell to actual workers.
Unfortunately it seems the overlap between nazis and tech bros wasn’t as high as he thought
Unfortunately
😐
Haha, but I know what you meant.
I’m not sure why they haven’t started stripping these things for parts yet. I can’t imagine anyone at the company expects to move the current stock
Elon never needed the media to downplay anything.
the media wanted Donald Trump and his band of misfits in the White House.
I’m 41, I can’t remember a time when the media wasn’t carrying Trumps water.
The reporting on Trump and the current batch of Republicans is God awful.
I mean you have an entire political party touting the need for “fiscal responsibility” release a budget that increases the deficit?! How are they not being ridiculed for it?
Shame, no overdose.
Hell, even I knew he was high as a fucking kite most of the time. It’s obvious from watching him. He has serious drug abuse problems.
Wasn’t he openly bragging about regular use of Ketamine a few years ago?
I thought him (and the entire SV “tech bro” scene for that matter) being in drugs was an open secret?
Him and Don Jr.
Once again, BIG FUCKING SUPRISE
Maybe to people who had their eyes closed lmao. Jokes about him and K and all sorts of shit has been spiraling for what, a few years now?
according to a report published Friday by The New York Times
Friday!!!
The actual FUCK?!!?!!?
Why is this shit not reported DURING the election!??!
–oh right, access and $$$ Assholes.
why has nobody talked about Elon using drugs before today?! How did we not know this?!
Uhh…
He’s not that evil, he just took too many drugs.
Well nice try whitewashing
I guess that explains hitler
Interestingly, Hitler was pretty much constantly high at the end of the war. But he did write his manifesto while in jail, so he was not evil because he was on drugs, he just happened to be evil and then started drugs. Might explain some of the more stupid late war decisions.
He is a drug addled clown, so the idea that anything he does is serious is unexpected.
Maybe DOGE should focus more on DUI recruitments in the government
Anybody who’s seen that kind of thing in real life already knew that he was an addict years ago.
Any amount more than zero is serious you morons
As someone who infrequently enjoys recreational drugs, I disagree. There is a difference between a glass of wine on Friday evening and horse tranquilizer every morning.
80% of all people who think all drug use is intolerable also dont think having a glass of wine is recreational drug use
He will die to bladder cancer or renal failure if his consumption of K continues.
His k cramps must be wild.
As someone with mild substance abuse issues, I 1000% agree. Starting therapy again soon.
Fuck off with your weird puritanical bullshit
Which drugs? Like how some world leaders are supposedly coke addicts, but that’s never true, but *this *is?
ketamine. Elon’s drugs of choice are public knowledge.
So is the coke use, but why is that not true?
