Take it for what it is.

Could be true.

Could not be true

I love Trump, warts and all.

But, I think this statement about a man that on paper is about 12 times richer than Trump and is showing the world how entrepreneurship and capitalism are better than GOVERNMENT was a dumb thing for Trump to say!

Exactly what I was thinking. He needs to engage a filter on his mouth sometimes.

I think the whole thing has been manipulated to satisfy people’s agendas

Everyone thought Musk was going to save the “free speech”’world, including man my on here.

He’s just a capitalist, venture capitalist trying to make a buck.

A little jab at someone doesn’t turn them into an enemy and if it does it was only a matter of time anyways and they would have done it at the most inconvenient time. I suspect Elon wouldn’t care about this and if he does he would just jab him back. The idea that you can’t throw a little shade without being mortal enemies is what spawned cancel culture.

Trump already has his voters in the bag, no sane reason for him to engage in this type of needless Musk finger pointing and F bomb theatrics. It’s not going to win over any new voters. It’s a crying shame because there are plenty to be had because of the Rat party’s radicalism.

We could use Musk’s backing. This is the WRONG approach.

That would be hilarious if Trump announced before the midterms and stole McCarthy’s & McConnell’s thunder.

Our problem is the state legislatures are the swamp minor leagues and full of establishment climbers.

Donnie, cool your jets. Musk could be a staunch ally if you don’t piss him off.

Trump sometimes doesn't understand that his brand of attack only works against people who are mostly "unlikable", like Hillary, Cruz, and most of those he ran against in 2016. Musk might not be the most charismatic guy, but he is an iconic figure who has a very large fan base, not to mention being the richest man in the world. The people who hate him are never going to vote for Trump anyway.

Absolutely. Zero issue with either.

Issue is folks putting him on some sort of pedestal, as if he was going to save the world.

With his money he could start his own, from the ground, but….

Jack’s Magic Coffee Shop…

https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2022/04/28/jacks-magic-coffee-shop-reports-2nd-quarter-financials-net-operating-loss-of-128-million/

From the article…… The only way Twitter, with 217 million users, could exist as a viable platform is if they had access to tech systems of incredible scale and performance, and those systems were essentially free or very cheap. The only entity that could possibly provide that level of capacity and scale is the United States Government – combined with a bottomless bank account. A public-private partnership.

Interesting that there was such pushback on the deal

Imagine Musk tweeting "DeSantis 2024". That'll get a lot of people to vote for DeSantis.

If I were DeSantis, I'll be spending time with Musk. DeSantis should go for it. Trump was great. But nobody owes him the nonimation in 2024.

Gee be a little more disrespectful

Musk is a bs artist. Talks out of both sides of his mouth

Trump is his own man. Doesn’t need your approval

It’s almost a compliment. Musk really backed Twitter into a corner.

Not sure how this helps him get votes in 2024.
