I only saw his marine hat so I was very polite and spoke. After a bit I noticed his big ass Daddys home shirt with trump as Rambo.
Fucking Marimes dont need to give a sailor a reason to laugh our ass off about them.
Trump in your Jar Headed Daddy?????
😂😂😂😂😂🖕🏽🖕🏽🖕🏽.
Fucking idiot!!!! Sucker, loser, and I guess not a POW so Trump approves, as long as he keeps his broke ass at a distance.
Daddy, ha, His spawn tolerate his dumb ass for cash. You MAGAs aint gettin a dime. He is taking all you own dip shits.

I wish him luck in those primaries, but I'm not going to help him. It's the generals which interest me.,

lapfog_1
(31,956 posts)I am OK with both items on this bucket list!
For those in the "enemy of my enemy"... Elon doesn't want more money for health care... he wants even larger cuts ( or elimination ) of health care for the poor. And especially he wants larger tax credits ( that last forever ) for EVs.
Wiz Imp
(10,301 posts)He definitely has an inflated sense of his own power to influence elections (he spent 10s of millions of dollars on the Wisconsin Supreme Court race only to lose big). But I'm sure he can influence some races. He likely wants even further right wing candidates in many districts, but knocking off Republican incumbents in a primary will helped Democrats in the general election

Bluetus
(3,028 posts)Most of his "wealth" is in shares he holds of Tesla, SpaceX, Twitter, and other companies. As long as he holds these shares, no income is realized, ergo no tax. He does occasionally sell shares, but even that is taxable at the discounted capital gains rate. And his corporations pay little or no tax because accounting rules provide all sorts of loopholes. Last year, Tesla reported a profit of $2.3 billion and didn't pay a penny of tax.
But if Musk wants to target half the Republicans and Trump wants to target the other half, that's OK with me.
Buckeyeblue
(6,419 posts)He does need many votes. Pick 5 senators and 5 members of congress. Offer them $50 million in cash and unlimited support for their primary next year.
Honestly, this would be easier than trying to primary of bunch of people.
