Steve Bannon Goes Nuclear on ‘Truly Evil’ and ‘Racist’ Elon Musk, Pledges ‘To Take This Guy Down’
Mediaite ^ | Jan 12, 2025 | Michael Luciano

Steve Bannon unloaded on Elon Musk, calling him a “truly evil guy” who must be run out of the MAGA movement.

Musk spent more than a quarter of a million dollars to help return President-elect Donald Trump to the White House. The billionaire Tesla CEO and owner of X has been a fixture at Mar-a-Lago ever since, with some reports indicating Musk’s near-constant presence is wearing on Trump.

“I will have Elon Musk run out of here by Inauguration Day,” Bannon, a former Trump White House adviser, told the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera in an interview published on Wednesday. The article was flagged on Saturday by Bannon’s former employer, Breitbart, which published excerpts in English.

I guess Bannon doesn’t like Elon Musk exposing the grooming gang rapes in England.

“Quarter of a million”?! Billion is more like it. Musk is in our side and is the richest man in the world. Or at least top 3. I’m thinkin that’s an advantage

“Musk spent more than a quarter of a million dollars to help return President-elect Donald Trump to the White House.”

I have no idea of whether that is true or false. I assumed it was much more. Buying twitter was a contribution also. How much of a contribution, I cannot say.

I’ve gone to X because I can answer very shallow thinking from liberals. I don’t think they are accustomed to a response.

Bannon was run out of the first Trump administration.

There might have been a valid reason.

“Musk spent more than a quarter of a million dollars “

That’s only $250,000, that does not meet the smell test. The argument should be who brought the most votes to the voting booth. Not even close, wasn’t it Rodney King who said, “Why can’t we all get along?”

He’s right.

Folks, you need to research Elon Musk. He has hurt countless innocent people. He’s known of defects in his vehicles that can be fatal and has looked the other way (German papers reported on this after receiving a data leak from Tesla—largely ignored everywhere else). He’s instituted policies at his businesses to string people along for warranty replacements, and forcing regular customers to agree to NDAs. His factories have more fatalities and maimings than any other car factory. His cars are now ranked the most dangerous on the road today. He’s lied about FSD for years and the danger it represents to the public. He faked the Tesla FSD “Paint it Black” video per his own employees under deposition. He faked the Solar City presentation, waiving around fake solar panels, to con his investors into allowing him to bail out his relatives who owned that shitty company. He has told countless, countless numbers of lies, pretty much every single day, with his most recent one: something as petty as cheating at a video game so he can claim to be one of the best at the world at it? He is a manchild who lies, and lies, and lies, and lies, and lies.

Folks, quit being sheep. Do your research. I predict it won’t be long until Trump dumps him. You ought to prepare yourself for that.

No, I believe it was when Elon Musk went on a 72=hour manic feces-posting spree over Christmas and called anyone opposing the wholesale importation of the Indian subcontinent to work as tech cookies in the US "racist."

Divide and conquer.

X was key for Trump and Musk Monet was more like 250 million.

Need him for Congressional races.

I think both these guys can be useful, but they need to be compartmentalized. Give them specific jobs to do, with boundaries and keep them to it.
And what is this flying off the handle with non-helpful tweets that do nothing but disrupt the home team? Musk going after Farage and now Bannon puffing up like a blow fish! Check your egos at the door, boys.

Right. Bannon, an aging relative nobody, is going to “take down” Musk.

Bannon needs to finish the second bottle and go to bed.
