I remember when Forbes was about getting rich. Now it's about defending rich rapist plotting to rape more.

A South African illegal immigrant is influencing American politics. Musk came to the USA on false pretenses, secured investor money, became the richest man on earth & bought his way into the White House. He supported convicted felons & sexual predators. The man may be rich, but he's delusional.

He could succeed in his quest to be the most powerful man on earth. He already accomplished to be the richest.

He faces an uphill battle because he's a reprehensable piece of gutter trash who rather than facing charges against him brought agaist him by the congress quit instead, but Trump thinks he's a great guy!

Is this the party that wants the Ten Commandments on school walls?

Why does Forbes think Elo’s right wing opinions are newsworthy?

What qualifications does Felon Skum even have outside of being an obscenely wealthy piece of shit? He has zero credibility and zero integrity.

This guy needs to go.

There’s so much evidence against this guy!! He also cruised around Congress gloating about women. He’s such an opportunistic and would be an extremely poor representative as an attorney general anywhere. Gaetz is not well liked among members. Mike Johnson is a wannabe Christian, who needs to pray!!
