Talking points went out and lemmings-like Democrats proved to all that they know nothing about wealth creation. All they have is their greed for other people's money.
Once upon a time, Americans celebrated success. Some still do.
After developing reusable rockets, planning a trip to Mars, launching more satellites than anyone in history, and rescuing stranded American astronauts from outer space, Elon Musk launched an IPO of his SpaceX company, and a lot of people decided to invest in the new stock. That made the man who laid out the capital and took all the risks, Elon Musk, a trillionaire.
What does it mean? Well, stocks go up, and stocks go down. If a lot of people want to buy stocks, they go up. And a lot of people really, really, wanted to buy that stock and have a little piece of that company Elon founded as their very own.
So they gave Elon their money, feeling confident that he would make more of it for them. They knew it wouldn't go to Somali fraud or Los Angeles homeless NGOs the way big government money does. And this belief, by the way, made many little guys rich, such as the Mexican-born welder who spent a dozen years working for SpaceX, bought some of the stock, and found himself a millionaire.
Did Democrats celebrate?
Not in the least. They spewed jealousy, bitterness, and their greedy, grasping hands after the success.
Just look at them:

Elizabeth Warren is such a whiner.
Zero Sum thinking is essential for the Left. If you have something (like money) that means you stole it. I ought to have that money that you have (God knows why, but I just deserve it) except you stole it. So we need to redistribute that.
What should we expect from a bunch of commies?
To them capitalism is like sunlight to a vampire.
I hope this gives that pos bernie sanders heartburn 24/7 for a year.
Not only has Elon Musk created enormous wealth, he saved the Republic from near certain defeat and death.
Without Elon purchasing Twitter and protecting free speech, then campaigning hard for Donald Trump for President, the Deep State would have destroyed the Republic and confiscated what Elon Musk has created.
We owe a deep debt of gratitude to Elon Musk and to President Donald Trump.
I used to call Obama an “economic illiterate” because when I heard him discussing the economy, it was obvious he had no clue what he was talking about. You don’t climb out of recession by raising taxes. He took what should have been a mild recession and nearly turned it into a crippling depression. The lamestream media just kissed his ass the whole time.
Bernie said it out loud, America can’t survive a trillionaire who donated 200 million to Trump’s election. Back in the Tea Party days the villains of the left were the rich Koch brothers. The left’s main complaint to Musk is that he is a financial threat to their power.
It would be great if Musk announces a political action fund like Soros’ Open Society to support MAGA candidates and capitalism everywhere. A good start would be an ad campaign to tout the benefits of free market capitalism versus communism to blunt the upsurge of communist candidates.
The democrats don’t want to make money they want to STEAL other people’s money
The left has indoctrinated so many people that this type of crap works. The indoctrinated actually believe that if someone becomes very wealthy, it’s because the money was stolen from the people.
I think there are dark days ahead for the US.
“Did Democrats celebrate?
“Not in the least. They spewed jealousy, bitterness, and their greedy, grasping hands after the success.”
They acted all butthurt just to rile up their constituents. That was just after they checked their investment portfolios and were over-the-moon thrilled with what they saw.
Bkmk
And Lie-awatha is now worth $12 million. On a $220K annual salary.
Wish I could do miracles like that!
His interview with Joe Rogan allowed us to hear how the mind of a true genius works.
Liberals should be happy; it’s their cult he made his money on.
I commented a year back that we would see a trillionaire in the future. I never guessed within one year. I am not jealous of Musk for a single thing. I hope he gets richer and creates more millionaire and billionaires.
We ought to be happy for Musk. Unlike the Democrat fraudsters, Musk didn’t get rich by stealing from other citizens or the taxpayers. He got rich by producing and selling things that people need. As a taxpayer, his earnings will even benefit the government.
They wouldn’t be griping if he was donating billions to the democrat criminal political organizations.
Liz would just like to be able to steal what Musk has for herself.
How come Warren isn’t concerned about the hundreds of billions of dollars being stolen from government programs created to help the poor?
Democrats dislike Elon Musk because none of them are intellectually capable of being hired by any of his companies.
Soros...(crickets)
