Musk calls for new political party amid criticism of Trump megabill
In a somewhat related story, check out this headline:
"Planned Parenthood funding at grave risk after Senate ruling"
ELON is an ungrateful Billionaire who’s lost his credibility with MAGAdonians.
Appears they’re aiming for Bee status.
You’re not as important as you think you are Elon.
He must be on some bad ketamine this week (or good ketamine??). He is pissed about them dropping the absurd tax breaks for wind and solar farms. All America needs is more nuclear. Solar and wind are inefficient and ridiculously wasteful of land. If solar is so damn great, then let them invest in it. The taxpayers don’t need to join them.
Ever think Trumpster and Musk are playing games with those who have been playing games on us for years?
Deport Musk now. This has been going on long enough.
I hope he does, this bill is turning into a sham. Senate is gutting so much of the good parts.
It is not the biggest debt increase in history.
So many don’t understand this bill because they haven’t read it. It does some great things. Some want to throw the baby out with the bath water as they say.
Debt limit increases are not debt. It’s flexibility.
I’m amazed how so many jerks in Congress want to die on this hill after creating the mess we are in with CRs and Omnibus BS.
They don’t read them. Their staff doesn’t read them. It’s all “change sub paragraph A to article 4 word “The” to “It” and silly language like that.
I thought we fought a revolution. So why play parliamentarian silliness? We aren’t Europe.
I think Musk doesn't realize that running a company where you answer to no one...and running a nation where you answer to everyone are not the same.
Alas...he offers no solution...
Elon’s a smart guy. A well-funded third party MIGHT be a useful vehicle for a single candidate who wants to work around the system or at a single state level. as a productive force for Congress? No. 100+ years of two-party cooperation locking out other parties makes that impossible. In the 60s, the hippies took over the Democrats, Trump’s MAGA coalition is forcing an unwilling Republican Party into a relignment. These things are tectonic, and happen in ruptures and reconsolidations over a generation. patience, Elon. We might run out oftime before a collapse, then you might have an opportunity to move faster, like Millei in Argentina. That’s a painful way to go.
Yes, you are, Elon. Now let me back on X before I sue you for defamation.
Musk does have a point.
Democrats: We will not stop borrowing and spending.
Republicans: We will stop borrowing and spending. Just not now.
I do get that Musk might have ulterior motives here. And the bill does contain some good things. Yet he does have a point.

I love what Elon has done for our country by coming aboard the Trump Train last yr. However, he obviously doesn’t understand American politics. Trump has to make deals to get bills passed in our razor-thin majority Congress. He can’t take a scalpel to it like Elon tried to do with DOGE. He needs to STFU and let Trump do his magic.
Geez. I’ve never seen a guy go this fast from hero to villain in a Hollywood movie.
True,
Credibility is very low.
I just ignore the drama.
Musk is on a role. He bought ABC for $740m and fired the View.
