Elon Musk has signaled to President Trump’s advisers in recent days that he wants to put $100 million into groups controlled by the Trump political operation, according to three people with knowledge of the matter.

$100M to him is like $10 to the rest of us. But not for long. Tesla is going to (gas) tank because he’s the face of Tesla. And because their video display is just an iPad.
Donald Trump cannot run for a third term and he will be 82 for the 2028 election. This is pure corruption. Thanks, Supreme Court for Citizens United decision.
What do we do with these two people if and when we get our country back? What should be their punishment for the pain and deaths they are causing other people?
HEY TRUMP! let's focus on greasing the golden gears of MUSK, the richest man on Earth! The others, the ones who live here and might want, I don’t know, eggs? They can just pull themselves up by their bootstraps while we ensure the wealthy don't suffer any loss.
Wasn't it just a few years ago Musk was saying Trump should 'sail into the sunset'? That's likely the best plan for this old codger who sounds like a babbling idiot every time he opens his mouth.
God, could it be any more obvious that he’s the pimp daddy for Donald Trump? He just loves being a puppet for a tough guy. He really loves it Putin Musk he loves guys with foreign accents!
But why would he do this? He's so rich, he doesn't need increased power and influence. Rich people are famously never involved in corruption. And that's science.
Corruption, corruption, corruption… dear Lord please shine the light of thine truth on this corruption & bring the light of truth to the MANY HALLWAYS OF DECEPTION 💚
Mean's nothing to the Muskrat. $100 million to him is like $10 to the median income American. He can make $100 million in a day, selling four hundred Model Y Teslas. Pocket change.
Interesting timing on Musk's part, just days after Trump seemed to side w the Cabinet over him. Only confirms my belief that his earlier mammoth campaign donation bought him access to the Fed agencies - and to his and T's #co-bro-presidency.
Want to do something to help flip the house? Volunteers are needed asap to phone bank prior to the Florida special election on April 1st.
We can make a difference!!

See, this is the problem with billionaires. You used to be able to emolument Trump with a million dollars, but now, thanks to you, he’s expecting $50 million dollars for each personalized, executive order. You fool!
Elon can turn his virtual "on paper" money into real $ when he wants to shape our country to his whim, but he can't pay any tax cause "the money's not real" 🥴
Oh hell no! Illegal, unlawful, and wrong in so many ways. You 2 pogues want to fantasize about another Russian oligarchy, fu.Emigrate to Putins corrupt chaos You keep cruisin for a bruisin real America is going to remove your problem. No power for crooks.
As the american people, that would be YOUR tax money payed by YOUR wages.
Do you want your taxes to finance infrastructure, schools and healthcare? Or do you want your taxes to finance Trumps private interests?
this is going to go really well with regard to his other primary pursuit of saving Tesla from being the greatest rise-and-fall failure in automotive history - keep going Elmo - keep thinking you can win this video game when Hudson has been saying "Game Over" for weeks now
Do these two ever change their clothes! Trump always in the same ugly suit and that stupid fucking red tie and the other creep in the same black shirt and hat 🤮🤢🥴
Rather than be appalled over the blatant disrespect for laws prohibiting commercials on federal property, MAGA is feeling sorry for Musk & making an effort to bolster his business today. MAGA is enamored with everything & anything DJT does, lawfulness not necessary. #StopFOX
Talk about waste fraud and abuse. That's $100 Million laundered through Musk enterprises that were funded by US taxpayers to benefit Trump and Musk. See how that works?
HOW IS THIS ALLOWED TO HAPPEN?????
I don’t recognize our country anymore. I don’t even know if I have rights anymore.the law only applies to non- Trump voters
Nothing like Billionaires selling $100,000 cars on Federal Property to inspire people…. and how is this bringing down the price of eggs!!!!! Gives bad name to used car salesmen!
With Musk contribution to Trump, Musk will reap in billions at the expense of 🇺🇸. Every other distributor offered Melania Trump $5 million for her story. Then comes along Bezo who offers 40 million for her story. Indirect bribing.
Musk's monthly bribe payment plan. He'll want a good ROI using money from our pockets. How can it be legal for a government worker to payoff the President that hired him?
I'm sure today's White House Tesla ad was just a coincidence.
Fun fact (apropos of nothing)
Jimmy Carter, before taking office, sold his family's peanut farm to avoid the appearance of impropriety.
Politicians will grovel and genuflect for this cash-sell us all out in a flash. $100M here and there-even 20 times over is chicken feed compared to what E-Dog has lost in the last couple weeks.
So before Rep. backpressure against Trump may rise, he throws in some more money to Trump. So that Trump owes him more. Musk is apparently desparate to loose his connection to government where he can rule without control over gov. funding. Cut off, SpaceX will tank as well. Corruption in the open.
Major Automaker: "Telsa has benefited more from taxpayer money than any other car maker by far. Now the White House is marketing Tesla's vehicles. What's next?"
Simple. #musk plans to give #trump's political operation $100 million.
You are all spectacular✨️
You take my breath away✨️

Elon Musk’s Starlink Is Keeping Modern Slavery Compounds Online. https://www.wired.com/story/starlink-scam-compounds/
"...investigation reveals that criminals who make billions from scam compounds in Myanmar—where tens of thousands of people are enslaved—are using Starlink to get online."
Defund the illiterate thugs!
100 million is a substantial amount of cash, as is the initial 250+ he put into the election.
Is he really that liquid? Thought his wealth was tied to his stocks; is he taking out loans?
look at trump's posture and expression
this is an old man who is running from the law by cosplaying as a president with the real man in charge next to him
he's an empty shell
he lost in life yet got the one job where merit, apparently, didn't matter
Thank you, Roberts Supreme Court. The CITIZEN's UNITED CASE is doing EXACTLY what people predicted it would: accelerate the CORRUPTION of our government by giving corrupt billionaires more power. May you rot in hell.
Put $100,000,000 towards working class medical bills, past due rent, student loans, etc. and you'd be a hero to millions of people that would fall in love with you and adore you. But these people are capital-E Evil, they're billionaire bottomfeeders addicted to causing suffering
That was reasonably foreseeable as another payoff, just in case the Prez was thinking about dumping Elon for his “low ratings”— a trumpian “unpardonable sin.”
If he’s so worried about fentanyl then why did his boss pardon convicted drug dealer and money launderer Ross Ulbricht whose online business was linked to six overdose deaths? And what exactly are they doing to help those that suffer from addiction in the U.S.? We have yet to hear anything on that.
Complicit shitbags. Go suck each other off in the break room. You lost all credibility before the election. Now I wouldn’t even wipe my ass with your shitrag journalism. Follow me for more helpful tips. Fuckheads.
Quid pro quo for Trump's Tesla infomercial in front of the White House yesterday. Trump can be and is bought all the time in various ways by billionaires and high-figure millionaires. He's doing favors for money. We have to face this reality so that we can fix it: we're living in a plutocracy. 💰

He doesn't know how to drive.
Stick shift? Haha. No way. No how.
Canada cannot allow this to occur

And you're mostly fucked. Mostly.

WHAT A DEAL!
He paid $44 billion for twitter and got the US for not even half a billion.
Shameful

Again.

That’s the motto of this disgusting administration.
