In reply to the discussion: Elon Musk Threatens to End Deal With Twitter [View all]Smackdown2019
(1,366 posts)15. This is the new Trump!
Differences is Musk actually has money instead of Trumps IOU's. Trump back in the day was democratic.... yes... democratic... then he went republican..... now he started his cult organization of the SS party ultra-right Forth Reich. The deplorables, which are the 30% of the voting population is his base. Mostly the rural uneducated fools cheer him, the educated power grabbing are the ones support his party.
Musk is walking down the same path as Trump did. I see the tea leaves!
Anyone who inflicts with power, money in this case, is only out for themselves.....
