Tesla CEO and X/Twitter owner Elon Musk has labeled both former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden as “talking puppets” in response to the first presidential debate of the 2024 election cycle.
Benzinga reports that tech mogul Elon Musk weighed in on the recent debate between presumptive nominees Donald Trump and Joe Biden. In a statement that has caught the attention of both political analysts and the general public, Musk dismissed both candidates as mere “talking puppets.”
Musk’s comments came in response to venture capitalist David Sacks, where he stated, “They’re just talking puppets. It was a setup for a switch.”
This remark is particularly noteworthy given Musk’s previous interactions with both political figures. While he has been openly critical of Biden and his policies, Musk has also revealed that Trump occasionally calls him “out of the blue for no reason,” describing the former president as “very nice” during these calls.
But, Musk and Trump haven’t always been on particularly friendly terms. Breitbart News reported in July of 2022 that Trump criticized Musk for his reliance on government subsidies:
Recalling the billionaire’s visit to the White House during his presidency, Trump said that Musk wanted government subsidies for many of his projects that offered big promises without delivering many rewards. Trump said:
“When Elon Musk came to the White House asking me for help on all of his many subsidized projects....

Reagan told Trump to run for president, so he obviously liked him.
Trump is popular with his base. But ask independent voters what they think about Trump. They do not like his personality but they like his policies.
“But ask independent voters what they think about Trump.”
Why ask independent voters?
Do independent voters inhabit the default position of truth and divine perception?
Is it not strange to you that the Leftists and deep state actors say the same thing about Trump?
It is not his toxic personality that the snowflakes don’t like, it is his masculinity that the geldings are afraid of.
Only to a leftwing Karen snowflake.
That spoiled the plan cooked up by CNN and The White House.
Probably changed the course of history by keeping calm.
We know who's pulling Biden's strings, but nobody is pulling Trump's strings. Or ever has been. That's why he is shuch a threat to the elites.
Elon Musk is an untreated, and personally not managing himself well— Bipolar individual. Nothing he says in moments like these, when “off the cuff” so to speak- have any real significance. Except the “set up” notion on Xiden— that is an engineer’s analysis. A high functioning bi-polar. Mr. Musk.
He’s not bi-polar-may seem so sometimes.
He can never be POTUS-foreign born.
I could see him as Secretary of State. Run the UN eventually. Show the 3rd word $hitholes how it’s done. Plenty of time for him to do more than make money.
He most assuredly IS bi-polar. Lot’s of people are functioning high functioning bi-polars who are tolerated because of their leadership over others. This is not conjecture, clinical observation, behavioural and language use analysis by experts. We will never hear or see any of his private docs saying any of this. Know this from my clinical colleagues, and Tesla execs.
Where dd you get the idea Trump has a toxic personality?
If his personality is toxic how come he is so wildly popular that he could enter politics for the first time, run for the highest office - and win?
If he is so toxic, how can he charm so many tens of millions of people over his lifetime? Can someone with a toxic personality enjoy that kind of success in business, then show biz, then as a best selling author, then literally conquer politics?
If he s toxic, why is he beloved by nearly every normal, non-corrupted, non-brainwashed human being on the planet?
It seems to me that the only ones who consider him toxic are quasi government tyrants and their media stooges, who are threatened by his success and his popular agenda - and of course the easily brainwashed, who believe literally anything they are told.
*Lot’s of people are functioning high functioning bi-polars who are tolerated because of their leadership over others.*
Interesting.
Nolan Ryan was ‘effectively wild’.
Biden is supported because no one wants Kamala.
There are in history and the world today— immensely positive attitude people (some inside very negative world domination groups, WEF,Islamofascism which depends on the best positive KILLERS of the many types of infidels, Communists- see:Gramsci, obama’s hero). Positive attitude people attract the large numbers of people who are constantly downers, depressed (women especially who are depressed at a much higher rate than men. Men make up for it by becoming drunks to fake out depressed women- case in point).
So- don’t drink, smoke or chew or go with the girls who do— and people will see how it is you are so successful and popular.
Nonsequitur.
But what those two have in common is that RINOs hate(d) both. Therefore, those who assert that Trump’s personality is “toxic” without saying why or how are saying the same thing about Reagan . . .
The point is that the rules by CNN helped Trump to restrain himself so Joe had to talk. And we saw what happened. So Trump was disciplined and presidential. We didn't see that during the debate in 2020.
IOW, you cannot “explain it in depth” so you are evading.
Frankly, if Trump was “unrestrained” for want of better words, we would have seen a far worse and weaker Biden.
We can agree to disagree. We’re on the same side. We’re both voting for Trump in November. Have a nice day, sir.
If you hope to receive GOVERNMENT SUBSIDIZATION "somewhere down the road" you have to STRADDLE the FENCE.
