Just to point out Elon is not an innovator. He has invented nothing. He bought companies from real innovators. Musk is not a patriot either. He has been doing his own business-based shuttle diplomacy with Ci unchecked for months. He pushed for the far fringe of Nazism in Germany. He has attacked our institutions with such zeal he has fired thousands and thousands he was not permitted to fire. Musk loves himself, not this country. He may like Trump, but Musk’s son repeated a comment he must have heard from his dad that Trump is not the real President.

Worse than not being a patriot…Musk is an immigrant who is against immigration. He is a Canadian citizen born in South Africa who thinks of himself as the unelected President. The vast majority of his wealth comes from government contracts, yet he opposes government spending, he can’t qualify for the security clearance because of his relationships with Russia and China, but he wants us to trust him with universal access to everything. Musk admitted before the election that if Trump didn’t win, he would end up in jail…how about we start pulling on that thread.

Erin Flanagan's avatar

Trump called on Fox's Peter Doocey for all but three (?) of the questions. Further, each one dealt with a separate dicey topic and allowed Trump the airtime to come at the T.V. audience with another reverso-lie. The entire event was scripted to cover his ass from the Elon-China War Games debacle and to deflect from his illegal and immoral actions.

That's what I mean by the Oval Office is a sound stage. Every event is scripted with lies produced by Trump for the viewing public. Consider MTG's "reporter" boyfriend asking the suit question to Zelenskyy to deflect from Trump's then still-hidden ardor for Putin. At least AP was there somehow. That's important because the smaller news market rely on it for national content. They have become persistent in getting the news and its implications out.

Agree. But Justa Dick Vance would be 900 times worse. Let’s say 3 years of 47’s presidency, plus 8 of his own. 11 years of Rule by Oligarchy. I doubt we’d exist (as a democracy) any longer. Vance desperately wants to be pals with the Honchos, the Big Men, Movers and Shakers, so he’ll do anything to get “in” with them. And he’ll Never, Ever succeed. He’ll ruin the country, his family, and whatever issues come before him, because he will run to the tech-bros and oligarchs for advice (or they give him marching orders in advance) and they’ll give him answers that benefit only them. He’ll never have old money to fit into the multi-generational wealth crowd (the real plutocracy), and isn’t smart enough to get in with the tech bros. All he has is really expansive moral flexibility and the ability to withstand long political meetings and public embarrassment.

And that’s what bothers me so much. They are doing so much that it makes it almost impossible for people like you and me to keep up with it. It’s just continual shock and R and I thought Trump would be bad, but I never thought it would be this bad. I would never have voted for him in 1 million years and I didn’t think he would get elected again. I’m starting to understand how he got elected and why and what the Democrats need to do. But first they need even a handful of Republicans to break with Trump policies. When they start ignoring Scotus, you know we are in trouble.

I was in New York starting in 1993 until 2007 and it’s still my hometown :-) running into Trump was not hard. I had the displeasure in 1998. I think it was right when I was interviewed to be the personal assistant to Jeffrey Epstein I kid you not! It was down to me and the other girl who has been in the news. I’m so glad that never happened. You know when you live in New York you have a very dramatic life, especially in the 90s. I interviewed with Maxwell at her townhouse, which was completely gutted. I felt like I was being watched. But back to the Trump situation I was eating dinner with a friend at the 21 club when Trump walks in and he takes the table right at the door so anybody that leaves has to see and walk by him. And he was 6 feet away from me staring at my chest. I felt so uncomfortable . Melanie is looking at my date. We still talk about that moment. It was such a creepy thing. I felt such negative energy from this guy. I truly believe that New York Society shunning Trump caused him to want to show them up. I hope that New York City does not suffer too much under the Trump regime. I’m also worried about some of the people that spoke out against him. I hope my fears are wrong. But being in a room with him, that felt like I was in a room with someone with a black heart.

Wish he just totally melted down into a puddle of slime, so we could clean it with a mop. I make sure I have happy focused times in my day. But, thr unraveling of our beloved Republic 🇺🇸 and Ukraine 🇺🇦 breaks my heart. I am in tears now. My doggies are snuggled in my lap and brings joy. 🗽🗽🗽

Great idea! Picturing someone throwing a bucket of water on him....."I'm melting...melting! my beautiful wickedness is melting!" I agree....our doggos try to climb on my lap even though they're 70 lbs plus always makes me laugh. We have to hold on and stay focused through the pain.... sending hugs

They all got caught trying to hide Musk's sit-down meeting. Was Ivanka going to be there, too, to save her line of crap clothing? Certainly The Convict wants to protect the slave labor that produce his magat junk. This was just another in the many ways that The Convict is giving out top secret information to our enemies. And Musk is an enemy pf the US.

Ivanka is in Saudi Arabia with Jared and their $2B Affinity Partners. Maybe they're having drinks with Steve Witkoff and the Russians who are there to discuss Ukraine, Yemen, and Israel.
