    Born rich bitch immigrant who does nothing but buy out companies wants hard working Americans to justify themselves to him.

    Why are conservatives such cucks? Why did they vote to be such cucks to an immigrant?

      They have a bad habit of confusing appearances for substance.

      Musk and Trump appear strong (thanks to a combo of almost all conservatives understanding nothing about how government works and the media hyping up the Terrible Twosome), therefore they are strong.

      He’s too dumb to realize he’s the fall guy…

      Probably too dumb to not realize it’s never been trump calling the shots. So he thought he just had to pull one over on trump.

      Oligarchs aren’t really a big club of chummy buds laughing at the poors, Musk doesn’t understand the league that his own money puts him in. Musk is a sociopathic asshole, but Putin is a god damn bond villain. He wouldn’t even do it just for the money, he’d just want to put the “worlds richest man” in his place, because that number only counts legal money.

      I could see this shake out where trump “prosecutes” him for fraud and taking 100s of millions or even billion plus from Musk to be used for bullshit like laundered thru contracts or used as “aid” to a country that cuts trump some on the backend.

      Like, we joke about “president Musk” these days, but Putin and others have much bigger claws in trump.
