Trump needs to put a lid on this asap. Really dumb.

Not a Musk fan, Trump has a point.
But it’s still a purse fight among billionaires that should be beneath both of them.

“Even if Elon Musk criticized Trump, and by all accounts it was just Musk explaining his beliefs, Trump can respond with a logical reasoned disagreement.”
LMAO. Trump is an Alpha Male. Something YOU are obviously totally unfamiliar with. He hurt your Snowflake sensibilities did he? LOL. Trump’s response was FACTUAL. Completely FACTUAL.
Musks enterprises are SUBSIDIZED. Musk makes claims on a regular basis that he never backs up with results. Ever.
Most people are so mesmerized by Falcon they do not bother to scratch below the surface.
Falcon is a major accomplishment but, it is NOT representative of Musks enterprises. But, you’d have to be well informed to know this.
Donald Trump is correct in his criticism of Musk.

First Trump called Musk a Bullshit Artist for pulling out of the Twitter deal. Then Musk said it is time for Trump to sail off and hang-up his hat. Now Trump says Musk would drop to his knees and beg him.

Trump, IMO, is at this point reminiscent of Wild Bill Hickock in that famous and frenzied shootout in Abilene (1871), when deputy Mike Williams was accidentally killed by Wild Bill. Trump is now in the eye of what I believe to be the most dangerous storm of a stormy career. Musk leaned toward DeSantis, and that was all she wrote.

Whether it's helpful or not is far from settled. Trump has always been committed to ride "2020 election fraud" to the end--no matter what...

Yes, this is just being petty, it is probably because Musk said he had not voted for a Republican before and Musk is getting hte spot light. I’m a Trump guy but this is what hurts him with women voters, talk about about inflation and how I would fix it, border and fentanyl or Russia/Ukraine or recession-

PLEASE drop the petty feuds

“Trump needs to put a lid on this asap. Really dumb.”

Maybe or maybe not.

Eventually Trump’s Republican critics will have to present an alternative to Trump.

Unfortunately for them, they don’t have one.

Has anybody asked Biden/Harris Republicans a simple question?

Musk has come to the Republican side?
Hmm, not sure we have a measurement for a distance that small.
Musk is on the side of Musk, no one else.
He is not on the side of a free market in vehicle or energy choices.
He is not on the side of our RKBA.
He is not on the side of free speech unless it agrees with him.
The Twit buy was always a sham to garner even more attention for his ego.

I am not on the side of a guy who wants to deprive me of my choices and force me to buy his products by Gov. mandate.
If we are depending on Musk to help us we are doomed.

You are just proving the point, rather than talk about issues that Trump can win on , the whole conversation is about petty middle school type banter and name calling. In 2016 Trump was smart enough to pull out of that and he won, and yes IMHO he won in 2020 but it would not have been close enough for them to steal it if he did not spend time on name calling BS like this. Women, even by conservative pollsters, voted against Trump by 57% in 2020 and this petty characteristic was cited-stupid yes but it is stupid of Trump to engage in it now.

I worked my ass off for Trump, donated paychecks and this BS was the hardest thing to work against with women voters-its a loser for sure. Keep it up and say hello to Biden again.

I don’t know if Trump has ever figured this part out, but this is precisely why Trump has so few trusted allies and good advisors, which is why he ended up having so many turncoats and snakes in his administration. The people who stayed with Trump know that once you say one thing that will hit his ego the wrong way, even innocently, you get this nonsense. That gets you three types of people on your staff: folks who are yes men, folks who are scared to speak up, and folks who know that day when their boss turns on them is coming and are using him and that expected breakup for career advancement.

No. Musk needs to can his anti MAGA rhetoric. Remember, Trump is a counter puncher. If he is hitting out harshly it is because someone landed a haymaker on him.

Interesting how many duffs are sour about Trump’s comeback because they are ignorant of Musk’s contempt for Trump. Musk shot his mouth off and is paying the price of his ill advised smart mouth. Once again Trump is right on the money.

I’m not sure what President Trump was thinking saying that.

“Keep it up and say hello to Biden again.”

That is your problem, not mine or Trump’s.

Pandering to the female retards who jumped off the reservation over abortion, is a losing strategy.

The world is moving into “tough guy” nationalism. Appealing to dumb peanut brains will not win the 2024 Republican Primary Elections.

Whoever you present in those primaries will be annihilated by Trump, because those female voters just registered as a democrat, yesterday.

Sucks for Republican Trump haters trying to compete against him, without the “dumb dumb voter.”

Looks like there will be a lot of FReepers on the next National Review cruise.

They will all surely lap up all that insider RINO political advice from Rich Lowry and Andy McCarthy.

Is that a real picture or a photo shopped one? Why would a man wear a suit with sleeves to long and sport a tie that doesn’t go to the belt? Elon has to have better standards than that. I’m leaning towards the photo shopped.

Perhaps this has something to do with Musk saying he would vote for DeSantis, after all Trump did to get Space X and NASA for first team up flight I don’t blame Trump he probably THOUGHT he had a great working relationship with Musk for private, public partnership for Space Force ect.!! Probably feels like a knife in his back!!
