Musk met with Trump last night (EDIT: The Daily Beast used a 2017 photo. See reply 21.)

Photo found on Twitter:




Musk says he isn't donating money to either candidate. But even if that's true - and there's no reason to believe anything he says - I expect him to use his businesses, especially Twitter, to help Trump. And anyone with a Tesla needs to stay aware that the cars are picking up audio and video.

1. Damn! We need to drastically increase the inheritance tax

[bucolic_frolic]

2. He didn't say the credit lines weren't open! And with debt you get influence!

[multigraincracker]

3. Time to deport Musk back to

South Africa, where he came from.

[2naSalit]

13. Problam is...

He's so rich that he won't be staying there because he can go anywhere.

[maxrandb]

29. I don't give a fuck where he goes

as long as he's not stinking up the United States

[vapor2]

4. APPEARANCE IS EVERYTHING ELON

[unblock]

5. Specifically money. He's not donating *money*.

He didn't say anything about not donating support via xitter.

8. Xitter is now officially shitter.

Working with dirty diaper Don will smell that way.

Elon is now aka easy sqeeze.

My Saturday Night Live skit:
Elon aka easy squeeze, Dirty diaper Don, and kushner aka 666

Meanwhile at Mar-a-Fartdo, while standing in a room cocktailing around a toilet and classified document strewn about. Everyone raise their nose and contorts their face.

Easy squeeze pats dirty diaper dons butt, and yells over to, 666 as he is putting on rubber gloves near a changing table, TIME FOR A CHANGE, HE'S DIRTY.

[unblock]

11. Yeah I figured how to pronounce that 'x' lol

[Bluethroughu]

6. Musk, will gift money to Kushner like the Saudis did.

And say he's investing it.

Anyone check into the Trump arm's deal, to see if the money Kushner received from the Saudis was a kick back from the deal???

Paging Merrick...DOJ...

7. You just know those bastards are plotting to install fascism.

All hands on deck as Muck will now control trump, Starlink and X...too much power in any one man's hands.

[Tommy Carcetti]

9. I'd pray for a meteor strike, but...

...given my geographic proximity to Mar-a-Lago, that probably wouldn't be the best thing.

Giant sinkhole.

[EleanorR]

10. A super PAC is not a candidate

There are plenty of ways this creep can get money to trump that don't involve a direct donation.

[2naSalit]

12. Old photo but...

It shows who the players are.

[highplainsdem]

17. Is it? I didn't see a date with it, and it was posted today.

20. Look at them...

Musk is 50+ lbs light and more hair, cheatolini looks a lot younger too. With slim, it's really hard to determine age so I can't make a call on bannon.

It looks like an old picture brought back to life to make a point. I could be wrong but that's how it looks to me.

[highplainsdem]

22. You're right. It's 2017. See reply 21. The photo I saw circulating on Twitter was used by the Daily Beast for

a story last night, without identifying it as being from 2017. The Daily Beast linked to a NY Times story about last night's meeting that also used a photo from 2017, but a different one.

I've edited the OP. If I find a photo of last night's meeting, I'll post it there.

[2naSalit]

23. That's what I guessed...

Filephoto.

[enid602]

28. Bannon

I wouldn’t imagine that Bannon looked any different in his confirmation photo.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

14. That's an old pic

Mikey McFlyhead is just behind the oozing sore's shoulder, although I have no doubt he's forgiven the order to murder him on January 6.

Oozy is demonstrating his sucking up technique.





Edit to add: Jeez! Look at 90 proof Bannon's nose, it's redder than Rudolph's!

[highplainsdem]

21. The Daily Beast used the photo for an article published and tweeted about last night:

The Daily Beast article doesn't give the date of this pic, but does link to a new NY Times article that has an old 2017 White House photo of Musk with Trump

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/05/us/politics/trump-elon-musk.html

and that NY Times photo has Musk and Trump dressed differently (different ties) at that meeting.

The Daily Beast does say their photo, the one in the OP, is from Getty Images, though, and I just found it and it's also from 2017:

24. I didn't think the old pic delegitimized the story.

It's nothing to me. I was grossed out by Boozy's nose and Anus Face.

I think it's common knowledge Melon and the MAGAt scumbags are BFFs.

[highplainsdem]

25. The story about last night's meeting is true, but I haven't seen any photos I'm sure are from it. As you said,

the old pic doesn't delegitimize the story. It's a reminder of the risks when these people are allies.

[IbogaProject]

15. Doesn't say he won't fund any PACs

I dislike Musk, even if his space x and popularizing the electric car were sort of cool.

[Cuthbert Allgood]

16. Solid evidence there is no god.

For if there were, that is the perfect time for an act of god to take out that building.

[TSExile]

18. The Mount Rushmore of Evil.

Enough said?

[llmart]

19. Bleechhh....

There's ole' anus mouth TSF himself along with booze nose Bannon and pinhead Kushner.

I can tell this is an old picture because TSF is probably persona non grata with Princess Sparkle Pony and her criminal hubby.

[Oneironaut]

26. Why does this absolute toolbag need to "dominate" everyone?

In this case, it’s his usual grabbing someone with his hand.

Dipshit has the IQ and demeanor of an angry chimp.

[no_hypocrisy]

27. How much did THAT BJ cost?
