    Oh man, President Musk isn’t going to like this. Good thing Trump is too chickenshit to voice this more publicly.

    What joke? He bought the presidency, and Thiel bought Vance for the vice presidency. It’s the Musk/Theil ticket featuring the old guy who signs bills, and the guy who will replace old guy when old guy does.

    With Facebook not fact-checking I really see this as an opportunity to galvanize the President Musk fact on as many posts as possible. Complaining about it only makes first lady Trump sound like a woke fake news puppet.

          I just imagine Trump is sitting on the couch, legs crossed, stuffing bonbons in his mouth like somekind of horrific peggy bundy from hell while watching social media on a big screen and furiously replying to every imagined slight.

            I’d be totally happy if that was all he did for the next four years.

      Mump, because it’s similar to a disease.

    “hates ‘President Musk’ joke”

    I mean… isn’t that the whole point? Wouldn’t his “big brain” understand that most obvious of ploys?

      Even if you see it as a ploy, there’s an underlying truth to it, and even as he may wish to not fall for the ploy, he probably can’t help but to face the reality that drives the ploy.
