Elon Musk slams Biden: 'The real president is whoever controls the teleprompter'
Foxbusiness ^ | 5-17-22 | Tyler O'Neil

Tesla CEO Elon Musk, whose purchase of Twitter remains ongoing, slammed President Biden in a podcast interview Monday and warned that if the government continues printing money, inflation will get worse and the U.S. might follow the path of Venezuela.

Musk, who said he has voted "overwhelmingly for Democrats," slammed the Democratic Party and Biden in particular. He suggested that Biden is something of an empty suit.

"The real president is whoever controls the teleprompter," the Tesla CEO said. "The path to power is the path to the teleprompter."

"I do feel like if somebody were to accidentally lean on the teleprompter, it's going to be like Anchorman," the CEO added, referencing the 2004 film in which Ron Burgundy reads whatever is written on the teleprompter, even if it would ruin his career.

Biden in his prime was a mental lightweight. Now he’s a senile lightweight.
***That’s part of the problem. When an intellectual heavyweight gets dementia you can see the yuge difference. But when a lightweight like Biden has it, he can hide the difference far longer.

Obama liked sports more than he liked running the country well, that’s for sure.

It was rumored by the Secret Service that Obama spent all of his leisure time watching ESPN Sportscenter.

Man, he’s really painting a big target on his back.

The left must be going nuts hearing their former golden boy telling it like it is.

There’s going to be a lot of used Teslas up for sale soon.

Love his honesty... and courage.

I feel the opposite. I don’t really blame Biden because for all the damage his Admin does he’s not really in charge or sometimes even aware of whats happening. He’s just a face. While Obama was a true believer who pushed a radical agenda.

I think it might have been when he paid how many billion in taxes and Warren tried to call him out.

Ha! That’s a good point that I hadn’t considered. Funny.

It is a brilliant strategy on the part of those pulling his strings. I think the plan is to start acknowledging the emperor has no clothes and to implement a straightforward, “adult” process of replacing him on the 2year +1st day so that HeelsUp Harris has a chance at becoming prez for a full decade. Kameltoe can claim to be the incumbent prez in the 2024 election. There will be no controversy of who is the heir apparent, unlike Bush2.

But no one had a heart in the tin man, so we let it happen.

From my perspective he has fundamentally transformed America. We are no longer a republic, we are an Oligarchy/ochlocracy. Everyone can see it.

“After hearing her speak, you can see why.”

Anyone who doesn’t get what the phrase “word salad” means just needs to listen to one of Kamala’s press conferences.

Governor Gavin Newsome here in California shares some of Kamala’s skills in Valley Girl jibberish. Newsome is Nancy Pelosi’s nephew and he thinks he’s going to be President. Get ready to hear “mindfulness” over and over.

***The only reason he was elected was because he was black. It's so rare to find what Biden once called a 'clean' black in politics.

I get the impression that the Teleprompter Presidents may be trying to get rid of Kamala before they pack Joe off to the retirement home. I used to think that she was Obama’s puppet but now I don’t know about that theory.
