Why Trump won't get rid of Musk

[edhopper]

Musk has the receipts to show Trump did not legitimately win.

Your daily conspiracy theory is brought to you by:
Despair. Despair, when you see things are fucked up beyond reason.

1. Also

Probably has 'rump's tax info as well. Very blackmail-able, as we know....

6. Trump isn't blackmailable any more - partly because he has no shame,

and partly because his almost certainly illegal tax evasion wouldn't be a problem for him even if it were exposed. Even though tax evasion isn't an official presidential act, he will never be prosecuted.

2. I think it's simpler than that: Eloon has an insane amount of money -

enough to corrupt an entire government. Whether he can prove Trump didn't really win is irrelevant at this point.

3. I believe they made a deal before the election.

5. Dont think extortion would phase him

It’s after the fact, he is now in control, doesn’t matter if Musk shows proof, Trump’s followers and syncophants would obfuscate that and gaslight to create confusion and effectively delay any action to the point where the damage is done. There is no way he would step down now. The time for that was before the inauguration when he wasnt in control.

7. No, it's because Musk Promised to make him wealthy

I think people mentioned that AI thing Musk plans for the government is something Trump will also profit from which is why he is letting him do anything he wants.

8. Not sure he can!

Musk kinda OWNS him now.

9. And right now Musk is being held accountable in MSM headlines

and tRump is skating.

11. Musk gives everyone someone to hate

Freeing them to "like" Trump the good guy
