Pritzker: "President Trump ought to be calling that out. If he doesn't agree with Elon Musk, if he doesn't agree with two Sieg Heils at his own rally and backing a party that backs Nazis, then he ought to say so. Why isn't Donald Trump speaking out?

Hard to criticize someone who helped steal an election, but I guess Trump did #nazi this coming.

It would also be good if thoughtful groups like the ADL and others who doubted his intentions initially, would now admit that the benefit of doubt was misplaced. If Musk was merely an unhinged billionaire, it would be bad. That he seems to be Trump’s sidekick and GOP supports him that’s the issue.
Not working and very dangerous. Our Fourth Estate has become complicit by giving a pass to Musk’s overt Fascist fanboy shenanigans. All for their fat paychecks.
The idea that Musk should be treated differently because he’s wealthy is also dangerous! What other red line does he get to cross simply because he’s rich??
I doubt you will hear a word of criticism of Musk from Trump until Trump wants to break with him definitively. He knows that Musk is as sensitive to criticism - and as vindictive - as he is himself.
Elon cannot rebel too much against Trump. Trump has the power to take every ounce of government subsidy from his greedy hands. Elon would be only regular rich without the government handouts.

This is a great reframing strategy for the Dems. Using Trump's name and highlighting what he SHOULD be doing as a President, rather than repeating what he IS doing.
It wasn't just the "Awkward Gesture" it was the variation of THE 14 Words that he spoke beforehand too.
Just like the variation of THE 14 Words he spoke at the AfD recently.
Thank you for your thoughtful response it was really insightful. You’re clearly very knowledgeable, and I truly admire that. Your profile stood out to me, and I would be honored if we could connect as friends.
I think they need to stop dancing around it. He pardoned white supremecists. He has Nazi saluters in his cabinet. If he is ok with all of that then he himself is a white supremcist and/or Nazi
Yes, Pritzker has been an excellent governor for Illinois. I live in Urbana-Champaign and I was impressed with how promptly and effectively he handled Covid.
Fortunately we aren't subject to hurricanes, wildfires, earthquakes, or natural disasters that Trump can ignore (yes, I know if the new Madrid fault goes, we are in trouble -- but that's probably not happening in our lifetime and we can probably manage the occasional tornadoes that come our way).
I guess Trump’s taking the Fifth on this one… just like he does every time accountability knocks. Wonder if he’s worried about self-incrimination or just doesn’t have the guts to speak up.
Probably cause idiot trump who supports these 💩Nazis and white supremacy KKK idiots plan to use these violent people trashing the capitol again! His plan for his illegal 3rd term?!🤬
Just about everything that is stated in Project 2025 aligns with the Nazi agenda. The First Felon is a racist. Just look at the makeup of his administration. His base and followers don’t care what happens in this Country, they will follow him. His pathological lies are gospel to them.
Elon is the chump doing what trump is too much of a coward to do on his own. Make no mistake, in time he will become more brave.trump totally agrees, hence the silence. #FOTUS
More importantly why isn't the fucking Republican party speaking out in volumes?
Republicans used to stand for something many, many years ago, now all they do is bow down and kiss the shit-encrusted ring on Donald Trump's greedy, grubby hand.
Why isn't Donald Trump speaking out? Because he's fantasizing about delirious crowds giving him the Nazi salute. I don't think it will happen. His shtick is getting stale. The honeymoon is about to end. Many Trump supporters are probably decent people at heart. Time will tell.
Musk is a child of So. AfriKKKan apartheid. The fact that they benefited from a system that heavily favored white South Africans during that time is a point of discussion and criticism.
I don't know where you cherry picked your info from. Life under apartheid was not advantageous to black people. Life under our version of apartheid, Jim Crow kept Black folks in their place and prevented fairness in jobs, businesses & their personal lives. Please pick up a book. Knowledge is power.
I beg to differ. You might want to look it up. Case: United States v. Fred C. Trump, Donald Trump, and Trump Management, Inc.

because Musk has him by the balls, who bought his election, imposed his vice president. the darkMAGA have been preparing this fascist coup d'etat for 4 years. Denouncing Muesk and relying on Bannon is to shoot yourself in the foot and run the risk of seeing the scheme exposed.
He's got a good point but I know Trump would never. It's just too painstakingly obvious that Trump is in line with these alt right neo nazis. He doesn't need to say anything.
Cause he doesn’t disagree maybe ? Cause musk has paid the literal cost for presidential control to say what he wants . Donold needs him and won’t be able to get rid of him cause musk knows what we all know . Donold is bought and paid for
Don't have much sympathy. Musk has been showing his real self for years. Some owners claim their car has lost value so it can't be sold. Rings hollow. It will be worth less tomorrow and every day after that. Many good options now without the ugly brand association.
uhhhh, because he doesn’t want to piss off the neo-Nazis of the US? I mean, during the debate, he CALLED ON the proud boys and just pardoned or commuted the sentences of how many proud boys and oath keepers?
Why do these politicians continue to act like this is new
Take opportunity on these shows and say it out loud..the nation has been overtaken by Putin puppets . let everyone know the dems don’t know how to stop the takeover
Let the audience know how life will be for this nation going forward
Well project 2025 is pretty much right in line with the third Reich so who would he call him out? The entire Republican party is working on a fascist agenda
trump agrees with it. He had AfD members at Mar-a-Lago on election day according to an article in The Guardian. He also invited members of the AfD to his inauguration so there will be no flack from trump.
Who among us thinks (1) Trump’s gonna call out Musk or (2)Elon’s gonna listen to Trump. Musk owns Trump and there’s nothing Trump can do about it now. Elon doesn’t give a fuck what Trump or, frankly any of the rest of us, wants or thinks about anything. It’s all about the money.
People are pressing the issue because normalizing nazism in america is an extremely dangerous project.
And I agree that Elon manipulated the election but not via rocket science, voting machines, or starlink. He did it by manipulating the twitter algorithm to boost right wing content worldwide.
There isn’t an Also here. Maintaining a flimsy conspiracy theory hurts our messaging against Elon’s election interference bc it makes the much clearer, well-evidenced algorithm manipulation look flimsy to everyone else. If i sell you an apple next to a rotten one, i look like a rotten apple salesman
It’s the most boring explanation, and it’s the most simple explanation, but it’s true. Facebook performed similar right wing algorithm manipulation in the 2016 election in much lower volume/intensity. Elon’s https://X.com went wayyyyy further and now americans pretend to misunderstand a clear nazi salute.
Which is why we have to get everyone off their platforms. It means talking to people in the REAL WORLD and convincing them to abandon being manipulated on the internet.
This is not just a distraction, it's the most serious situation at hand, for Americans right now. Our primary objective is to counter it by any means necessary, before there's no other option.
He had no trouble complaining about a person of the cloth, Episcopal Bishop Mariann Budde, who prayed for compassion for immigrants /persons displaced as a result Trump policies.
I agree. Tammy Duckworth is a pretty great Senator. Looking forward to Dick Durbin retiring. Chicago Magazine has an article about the 10 pols who could replace him
Surprising Fact
Ivana Trump, the former president’s first wife, reportedly told her lawyer that Trump would read Hitler’s speeches—allegedly keeping “My New Order,” a book of compiled speeches—in a bedside cabinet, according to a 1990 Vanity Fair article.
Donald Trump loves money more than his self respect.. but since he’s a sociopathic pseudo-bully, he doesn’t recognize nor value self respect, he values power and control. He needs Musks’ $$ and his cult to continue his mission, so he will continue to be a 🐔💩and willingly look the other way.. 🙄

He’s a Nazi like Musk & all his white trash buddies.
🤔
"You also had some very fine people on both sides."
"They’re trying to take away our heritage and our history."
"I don’t know much about the movement other than I understand they like me very much."
"People love it, and I don't see anything wrong with it."
The
"they're indoctrinating our kids"
tables sure have turned.
Just like the variation of THE 14 Words he spoke at the AfD recently.
1) He donated $250m to his campaign and might have rigged the election in his favor.
2) Nazis are part of FOTUS’s base. He wants their support.
Call the president what he is.
But he has been a phenomenal Governor - Pritzker is honest, courageous, and he gets things done.
Illinois is lucky to have him as Governor during this very dangerous time.
He is phenomenal!
Don’t hold your breath for Trump “calling that out.”
Republicans used to stand for something many, many years ago, now all they do is bow down and kiss the shit-encrusted ring on Donald Trump's greedy, grubby hand.

You made another false allegation of racism. Is it any surprise Trump takes his defensive actions in the face of such falsity?

Well asshat, the good people on one side gassed most of my family in Auschwitz.
Your lousy father was ARRESTED at a KKK rally. And you both were sued by NYC for not renting to people of color. So we KNOW what side you’re on.
So sorry for your loss too.

I know full well what Elon did with his platform.
Have you been paying attention to what's been happening in other countries with direct vote manipulation?
Let's move on.
