Musk spent over $290 million to put Trump in the White House.

He’s $640 billion richer today. Not a bad investment.

Now he’s spending up to $200 million to try to keep Republicans in control of Congress.

Our job: Stop Musk. Stop Trump. Elect Progressives. End Citizens United.

Poor Bernie never got over the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, his favorite country ever.

I remember when Democrats railed against Millionaires.
Now, their candidates are all Millionaires.

It seems so Democrat when Millionaires envy Billionaires.

Bernie Sanders has spent 40+ years as a politician, building a few-million net worth from Senate pay, pensions, and book royalties attacking capitalism. His direct economic role: a small Senate staff. No scaled companies. The innovators he calls oligarchs employ over 1.8 million and drive the market gains in retirement accounts held by most Americans. Labeling that success “obscene” ignores how wealth creation actually lifts working families far more than any senator’s speeches or tax bills.

Bernie Sanders: net worth ~$2-3M (Senate salary, pensions, ~$2.5M book royalties since 2011; 3 homes). 35 years in Congress: primary sponsor of a handful of laws (mostly post-office renamings, one veterans COLA). Notable: secured ~$11-12.5B for community health centers in ACA. No companies, near-zero private jobs or market value created.

Them: firms at ~$13.4T market value, >$7T cumulative revenue, ~1.8M+ jobs, tens of trillions in surplus via EVs, AI, e-commerce, space. Far greater net economic good.

Last year Democrats and the MSM were celebrating because Elon had lost so much money. They said the loss was due to his support for Trump.

Now that Musk's net worth has risen, they say it's because of his support for Trump. 😂

Bernie doesn't have that up and down problem though. His net worth never goes down. Must be nice.

I wonder how much richer Comrade Sanders is due to Elon Musk, and President Trump?

Bernie’s number should be negative.

A lot of Musk’s wealth increase since 2024 is due to SpaceX going public which created over 4,400 new millionaires many of whom are blue collar workers like welders and plumbers

Leftist billionaires and campaign spending good, Republican billionaires and campaign spending bad😎

One of my favorites is still Bernie railing against billionaires at dnc and the next speaker was a billionaire 😂

Perhaps if true commie, but he is a dim commie and just like having mansions, driving in SUVs and flying on private jets are okay because they “care”, having millions and billions is fine because they “care”😂🤪

And Soros has spent ten times that much, in money taken from us through USAID, to fund losers like you. STFU.
