The Powerhouse Meeting Between Musk, Peltz, and Trump - and the Effort Against Biden
RedState ^ | May 30, 2024, 3:43 PM, EDT | Nick Arama

There's some fascinating news about an alliance between billionaires Elon Musk and Nelson Peltz and former President Donald Trump.

We reported on Musk's meeting with Trump in March. Now, there are more details about the meeting, which was reportedly at Peltz's mansion. The men also had their sons at the meeting: Barron, Diesel, and Musk's son X, who is a toddler. There were also allegedly other wealthy and powerful people at the meeting.

This meeting occurred before the guilty verdict in Trump's Manhattan case and before this article was posted; hence, I posted the time the article was posted. I am going into all of these details because it looks like Musk, at least, has a target on his back because he supports free speech. Now that the New York injustice system has perpetrated the Trump abomination, it's just about assured that Musk and many of his fellow billionaires are going to be contributing to the Trump campaign far more than they even anticipated. Although not a billionaire, I was sufficiently horrified by the Manhattan verdict that I just contributed $500 to the Trump campaign. Although many of you can't afford that much, I profoundly urge everyone of you to dig deep and contribute as much as you can.

No doubt they will start going after Musk, because I highly doubt he’s been as pure as the driven snow in financial matters.

Musk is definitely in the crosshairs. An active alliance with Trump will bring the hounds. He better be ready. These bastards play for keeps and leave nothing to chance. You can bet Rogan got nudged when he was considering having Trump on. You will notice that has gone silent.

They not only need money, they need marketing, they need get out the vote efforts, they need election law attorneys, they need to get every single person to the polls or to an early ballot.

Gee, you’d think one of only 2 political parties in the US would have much of this already... that is IF they actually intended to win national elections.

This is a bit dangerous.

The best Trump message is populism, rejection of the elites of the Swamp. All of them. Too many articles of meetings with elites is not a good thing.

Remember . . . the major parties are now fringe. 27% each. 47% Independents decide everything and they reject the Swamp.

It’s why Trump support down ticket should not be presumed. We should start seeing more Independents into Congress. The Senate currently has 3.

I actually think Trump is prepared, it's the state GOP's that are run mostly by patronage addicted losers.

Except independents in Congress usually caucus with democrats, which can shift power to dems.

I told my husband, married 51 years, we must donate to Trump. That was yesterday. Then Trump’s donation page crashed. I hope he got MILLIONS! We’ll try again today to donate! BTW we NEVER donate to anyone. This is our first time!

Those who can’t afford a large donation can make a small ongoing donation.

I must confess I like Musk though I wouldn’t really consider him a true conservative, more like a moderate with libertarian steak. But there is a part of me that fantasizes that the Biden administration does something that tees him off so much he’s willing to use as much of his $300 Billion fortune as it takes to get Trump elected. Basically, telling other Billionaires, you pour $100 million into electing Biden, I immediately pour $500 million into electing Trump, you pour $1 Billion into a Super Pac, I pour $5 Billion into a Super Pac. Basically telling them, I’m the wealthiest man in the world, you will always lose if you try to play the money game against me.

I’m still banned on Twitter/X.

I’m even banned from registering a new account.

I’d love to know why, and how many conservatives are in the same boat I am.

With that, dear lady, you now have as they say, "skin in the game". Before now, the game you had skin in, including civil or military service was the U.S. in general. [;^)

There is more to this than money/donations. I volunteered in Republican elections/politics 1996 - 2016 when we lived in Lake Jackson TX. I spent money on political posters, banners, etc. and gas to and from the HQ. I just didn’t get paid. We saw a lot of voter fraud and we were mainly fighting against that. I worked with three ladies who were much older than me, and they had seen everything. I learned from the best! I just didn’t mail in a check to politicians. I am not a rich man.

Independents inevitably will have their own caucus.

You simply can’t be 47% of the electorate and still associate yourself with a fringe party for long.

Peltz just sold his entire $3.5 billion Disney stake, netting $1 billion profit. He should just buy $100 million in $DJT stock.
