Elon
Curious the Tug's thoughts on this guy.

He's banging the Prime Minister of Italy.
Upvote.

It’s complicated. Some definite goods things like mostly freeing Twitter. We will probably come with the pitchforks for him at some point if he doesn’t behave.
-
Elon buying twitter was the biggest blow to the left in decades.
Is he kinda annoying? Sure. But who cares given the magnitude of that.
The left and the woke mob had complete and utter control of all forms of media. Businesses were terrified, local and state governments were completely cowed.
Now they have basically nothing. Reddit I guess. It’s completely flipped and everyone is okay with coming out against the woke shit.
It was always bad for business so would have eventually ended but probably not for another 6 or 7 years. And no way would Trump have won.
-
Yup the Twitter files opened up the eyes to a lot of the corruption the feds were forcing on Dorsey et al
-
No one really cares about that.
It’s that everything was actually straight up silenced on every platform. And the left got powerful enough to force businesses to fall in line. -
I'm against EV subsidies and always have been. But they bought Twitter lol
Space X is the future. Doge is good
You should let it play out
Vivek got benched when he pissed us off. No one gets a free pass
-
It was hilarious during the inauguration when Trump mentioned exploration, Mars and the camera zoomed in on Elon smiling giving both thumbs up, he was most definitely enjoying his free pub and genuinely happy.
I was pretty moved during his speech yesterday, feeling extremely patriotic or much more than I remember in years which wasn’t something I expected. -
Mixed bag. Mostly because he seems like a weirdo to me. Maybe genius at that level just makes you weird.
X has been detailed here. I of course like what he did there.
Biggest thing for me is the sheer audacity of Musk. It's remarkable. Taking any feeling out of either, the fact that he reimagined and reordered the world in not one, but TWO major areas is history book shit. He completely redefined and essentially built the EV market AND a good bit of infrastructure to support it (with gov assist of course). For most people that would be enough for 4 lifetimes and a history book Henry Ford type moment. As an encore he then decided to privatize space and has been wildly successful there. Think of the audacity of that. "I will build a private company to challenge NASA!" And then actually do it. Remarkable.
Still a weirdo though. But a fucking legend level weirdo to be sure.

This.
Everyone loved Elon 10 years ago, even lefties.
Now he spends too much time doing ketamine and arguing with people online over video games.
-
If he delivers on DOGE, then build the statue. Any Republicans that resist DOGE get an Elon funded primary.
-
Edit: fuck vanilla
-
If there isn’t PLSS AI in the next four years then we riot.
-
Me and you imitating him was pretty close
-
Savior politicians and billionaires are as good as savior QB's. If that's what you're pinning your hopes on be prepared for disappointment.
Maga is bigger than Elon. It's also bigger than Trump even if he's central to it.
It's a reawakened American spirit. It's happened before in US history and will again as those values are forgotten and rediscovered by younger generations.
Steve Bannon already said it, imperfect instruments.

I'm ready to build the bot with @haie and make Stalin pay for it!
-
Reagan was followed by Bush Twink number 1 and then tossed away Reagan's legacy and raised taxes in exchange for some magic beans.
-
Dimon is a real tea leaf reader which is how you get to run JP Morgan. He was woke when he had to be and is now rounding back to rational thought and behavior. Which is why you can't trust anyone but you can work with everyone until they fuck up
-
Reagan was co-opted and probably compromised by the deep state by his second term.
One generation away.
-
I actually believe that RR did not know about arms for hostages. He might also have thought it was a neat idea but I'm not sure. There was a lot of the cocaine involved in that deal
It did derail his second term for a fact
-
My favorite Iran Contra fact
They used the airport in Little Rock Arkansas
With a young governor Bill Clinton
Who a few years later was President Clinton
And the deep state ran things until 2016
When operative Hillary led the coup against Trump
-
This is fucking hilarious
Elon gets lots of credit for Tesla and SpaceX, PayPal even, but lets pump the brakes a bit Jamie LOL
-
JP Morgan banked Epstein.
-
JP Morgan bailed out the US more than once before the government could just print money
Uncle Sam gave Chase several bank branches like Wa Mu in return
Chase was never that into retail banking until the crash when they could get in for pennies on the dollar
-
I like my CSR card
-
If you (The Royal You) can't see Elon Musk for what he is at this point, you are a willingly ignorant or ignorant or evil dumbshit. Next. No real point in debating. It's a quid pro quo takeover of the entire information and political ecosystem, and the Tug jerks to it.
It's a shame. It's a damn shame.
Democracy will prevail in the long run, but we're in for a tough fascist road for a bit. I'm ready to shoot Everett in the knee when he comes at me and then save his life by not shooting him in the face.
The rest is history, Ev.

And idiots like ern still don't learn from their mistakes.
The fascists are the people you support ern. The ones who weaponized the federal government against parents, Catholics, free speech, jobs, etc. Allowed blm to burn, terrorize, murder and loot without so much as a peep from liberal leadership. You people literally tried to take away 71 million votes of innocent Americans based upon your russian collusion lies. You have raised your children to hate Jews. You are the worst.
It was a very rough 4 last years for more than half this country. You made the middle class less middle class, the poor poorer, and you made the country less safe by opening our borders and not enforcing our laws. Your fucked up policies cost people their lives FFS. Yet here you are, just another dumbass liberal, claiming that those who voted for Trump are the evil ones.
Oh, and bye the way, shove your fake concern for our "democracy" (whatever that means to a liberal) up your ignorant ass. You sure didn't give a shit about our "democracy" when you told the media to shut down free speech now did you? I'm tired of listening to fucked up liberals lecture people about "democracy". They clearly have no concept of what it means.
-
Your guy just mass and blanket pardoned his entire family and you want to lecture us on democracy and fascism? Got it!
-
Ern is a retard but he's our retard. He's just retarded. That's all
It's kind of scary that people that think like that vote but ain't that America. For you and me
-
Ern still won’t answer how Democrats in Dem states literally removing Trump from the presidential ballot “defended Democracy.”
He’s so far gone into his authoritarian cult that he is incapable of any sort of learning or self-awareness.
-
Fern is warped. He thinks the Biden (really Obunghole) regime was good. One can't fathom the wokeness that takes while ignoring the real world.
