      No. Trump will threaten NASAs contracts with SpaceX and musk will say “sorry daddy”.

    If Elonazi actually manages to maintain the attention span to see this through over the next 1.5-2yrs, I’m all in and here for it… Popcorn Popcorn

    But, the reality side of me holds little to no hope this particular tantrum will last. Especially given Mafia Don Mangolini holds the checkbook for all Elonazi’s gov’t “income”. 🤡 🖕 💩

    He’s gonna be the first person denaturalized for his “nazi rhetoric” as a theatrical farce of normalizing deporting US citizens. It’ll be in a “this is what u dem’s asked for” way with tv propagandists showing hand selected tweets calling for musk’s deportation from liberal pfp accounts.

      I think it’s all theater to win over all the rightwing folx that he cultivated during this tour. These are the folx that are gonna be hurt the most from this bill and are just ignorant enough to buy a Tesla out of some weird culty appreciation. Mans trying to salvage a lagging brand.

    One of the rare times Elon and I are on the same side

    The Big Beautiful Bill bans all legislation that regulate AI and more importantly, bans Transgender Healthcare for all but the very rich.

        If one wins the fight, I’d want it to be Elon because he doesn’t have the following Trump does.

        Elon’s already on his way down from his pedestal, all he’d gain from attacking Trump is taking Agent Orange down with him.

        Therefore who I root for in the feud is without question, Elon The Musky Husky.

    Looks like Musk has been hitting the Ketamine again. He’s going to be wearing a diaper permanently if he keeps this up. Not that anyone cares about him I guess.
