A NATSEC nightmare years in the making. Keep going and he is going to own US National security alongside Palantir. 2 hostiles with the keys to the kingdom. Something has to change.

Elon Musk's only real business, Tesla, receives the vast majority of its revenue from the single vehicle model that Elon Musk personally advocated against developing because he thought it was too "boring" (Model Y)
The dude was never great at business, but he has been washed for a solid decade now.

As always. Yes. But I refuse to become numb to this. By far the worst human being to leader any western democracy the last 80 years.

But who cares about yesterday's lies?
You don't actually SOLVE the problem, because then you can’t use it again for your political agenda.

It seems like sort of a pipe dream/ridiculous idea in the current environment with the current control of Congress. If we somehow managed to survive this whole thing, it’s a great idea.

We are still talking about her nuanced stances and Joe’s bedtime while the entirety of democratic rule is being dismantled and autocrats and murderers are being unleashed and praised. That is how we got here. Big picture ignored for purity tests.

This project in Serbia, slated to be built as a result of concession by gov of Serbia, is one of at least four Trump projects that involve foreign governments: Oman, United Arab Emirates & Qatar also. A US commander in chief as he and family are profit-seeking foreign government deal makers

The states still have too much control for him to actually appear on the ballot in all 50 states. He may try it, but it’s highly unlikely he will get very far. All the taste is a successful challenge on the state level in terms of getting him off of the ballot in a key state or two
