    1. If you and Elon Musk are playing bad-cop-good-cop, how shitty of a person do you have to be for Musk to play the good cop?

    2. This sound a lot like Russia saying they want peace. You know the argument that"if Ukraine just gave up their territory, government and freedom there would be no war, it’s their fault!". Same here, if Europe removed all their social security and pesky regulations so that US companies could do everything they wanted there would be no tariffs!

    I’d say just about the same thing if I had lost a whole Boeing’s market cap worth of stock value in just about few days.

    Nahh. It’d be better if Europe placed higher tariffs especially on Musk owned companies. Ban them from government contracts

    He said this in the far right political party of Salvini, current rival of the far right prime minister Meloni. Weird I thought they were loving each other, Did Meloni push him back?
