Funny, Trump said if he wins people won’t have to vote anymore.
transcriptoin_error on
Pretty ironic, considering that Trump said it will be the last election if he wins.
Elon Musk should be deported (Trump is talking about deporting immigrants, right?).
ScotTheDuck on
In a rational world, the CEO of a publicly traded company whose brand image is driven heavily by his own would be in *a lot* of trouble with his board and shareholders for the public behavior he’s exhibited over the past 18 months to two years.
Choice-of-SteinsGate on
Trump literally stated to a crowd of evangelicals recently, that if he’s elected, his base won’t have to vote in another election.
This is a man who has been indicted for conspiring to overturn an election, for defrauding the United States, for disenfranchising millions of American voters, and for his attempts to install loyalists into positions of power within the DOJ to help *him* steal the election.
This is a man who said, without hesitation, that he’d be a dictator on day one.
Who has suggested that he will disregard the constitution and possibly run for a third term
Who has also been indicted for his documented efforts to intimidate election officials in states like Georgia and Arizona. Browbeating and coercing them to overturn the election results via alternate slates of electors or just straight up vote manipulation.
This is a man who has claimed recently that, if elected, he will JAIL, not even investigate, but JAIL his political opponents.
Who has refused to condemn Putin for murdering adversaries and dissenters. Not only that, but he’s practically praised Putin’s penchant for eliminating the opposition.
This is a man, who has many times indicated, that if he wins the next election, he’ll consolidate as much power as he can, dismantle our system of checks and balances, and grant himself unitary executive authority.
The projection here is baffling.
And what will Musk get in return for this? Besides validation from his flatterrers on Twitter? We all know loyalty is a one way street with Trump. I guess with enough wealth, Musk can buy his way into Trump’s next administration.
Think about it, these so called “populists” damn near blindly support one of the richest egomaniacs in the world, who has failed upwards enough to buy his own platform, turn it into his personal megaphone, and afford himself the position of Trump’s assistant political agitator and election influencer.
And not only do they glorify this billionaire narcissist turned demagogue, but they also support his kowtowing endorsement of another billionaire narcissist, each of whom are staggeringly out of touch with most Americans, while they exploit the ignorance of voters, indulge their paranoia and fears and profit off of appealing to the lowest common denominator…
This isn’t populism, it’s fanaticism?

Elon Musk is the richest person in the world. He knows if Trump wins the presidency again that he’ll get whatever he wants.
>“Don’t worry about the future. You have to vote on November 5. After that, you don’t have to worry about voting anymore, I don’t care, because the country will be fixed, and we won’t even need your vote anymore because frankly, we will have such love if you don’t want to vote anymore, that’s OK,” Trump said in one of his trademark run-on sentences.
Proud3GenAthst on
I hope he’s right, because the constant anguish from elections is killing me.
Practical_Carob1253 on
How Elon Musk has not been charged with election interference or kicked out as CEO is beyond me. It’s almost as bad as a felon running for a second presidency 🥲 I can’t believe these guys are “idols” to many people in this country, it makes me physically sick when I think about that 🤢

Boycott Elon and all his brands.

As usual, the opposite of what he says is true

Elon Musk’s fearmongering at the Butler rally feels more like a desperate tactic than a genuine call to action; it’s sad to see such influence being used for spreading false claims.
aproposofwetsnow22 on
I think you have things backwards Mr. Musk! Did someone implant a computer chip in this guy’s brain in the past year? Did Trump promise him carte blanche on his space program, so he is throwing out every other one of his values? Weird times!
bebejeebies on
I guarantee he’s already told his people, “She might win, but I better not lose.” He’s going to double down if he loses either way. If it’s a small margin he’ll tie up the certification in recounts to find the stolen votes. If it’s a landslide he’ll tie up the certification because there will be no way in his mind that he would lose in a landslide. “I know it was rigged because I tried to rig it and I lost which means they rigged it and that’s illegal. Vote manipulation. Fake ballots. Suppression! Fraud. Collusion. Witchcraft. Arrest them all!”
Left_Two_Three on
I know these people are too dumb to reason with, but the Democrats are in office **right now**. Harris is literally the Vice President and could attempt to do what Trump wanted Pence to do last cycle.
>It Will Be ‘Last Election’ if Trump Loses
This dumbass is suggesting that if Trump loses, then Democrats will stop holding elections? If that was their plan, then why wouldn’t they just do it this election?
unclelarky on
It WILL be the last election…
..For trump and dork maga 🤣. VOTE KAMALA/WALZ

Yeah, it was crazy when Harris said people wouldn’t need to vote again if she won.
Oh wait.
ConstantGradStudent on
This provides cover for MAGAland. ‘We did it before they did it to us’
RuckPizza on
Weird because Trump also said you wouldn’t have to vote again if he won. What could he have possibly meant by that.

They are REALLY banking on Americans being gullible and stupid.

Don’t they know he’s an immigrant?

So why wasn’t the last election the last election?

I do hope it’s the last election for Trump!
Tails6666 on
Fuck off Elon you gremlin.

Elon Musk was raised at the seat of power; Pretoria, of the white supremacy government during apartheid in South Africa. The fact that he is now promoting MAGA is no surprise.

Can we please deport him? I thought republicans hated immigrants?

Leon should hurry up and OCCUPY MARS…
Nationalize SpaceX
Projection
We need a full and loud boycott of Tesla and X.
All they know is projection.
Uhhh, when Trump loses there will be another election in 2028, more than likely Trump running again.
This shit is crazy
They said the same thing about Biden winning in 2020.
He misses apartheid
it feels like every accusation or assertion made from the trump camp is a confession.
