He sucked at running twitter, but he's the GOAT at running the Whites Only House. Three cheers for President Musk

Yes, yes! I knew it would work. Seems like pretty much everybody got the same idea at the same time and it's working a treat. If you can't defeat your enemies, turn them against each other!

Now would be a good time for a reminder that there is no such thing as a moral billionaire. Scientifically, sane people retire to lives of luxury with their families long before they reach that level of wealth. The only reason to seek such wealth is out of a sick desire to control other human beings. Religiously, scripture says that there are no wealthy people in paradise. In the end, they all burn. Scientifically or religiously, you do not become a billionaire unless there is something broken in your soul.

So we really did get our second African American President.

Oooooooo, President Elon is gonna be pissed at poor man Trump and cut off his funding.

Trump better shape up and kiss the ring.

I predicted this a while back: Having two thin-skinned megalomaniacs working together never works out in the long run. Trump and Elon are both too dysfunctional even to be able to work individually with patient people without it going off the rails. Having them working together with each other is doomed to explosive failure eventually.

I would think Trump pretending to be fabulously wealthy but being exposed as a populist grifter, and Elon being the richest guy in the world, would hang in the air like Trump's stench.

This dude is so fucking easy to manipulate.

Really, the exact trait that I want in a leader 🙄

It would be helpful to constantly remind Donnie that Musk is about 100 times richer than him, too.

"I AM SPARTACUS!".
"NO YOU ARE NOT! I AM SPARTACUS!".
"NUH-UH!" "AM SO!"

"Bruh, what are these dorks going on about? Pass me another brew and fire up that J."

Why are they calling journalists? I thought all the news was fake.

Sounds like he might be easy to manipulate by the media.

Did you hear that Trump is just following orders from the religious right, that Christian nationalists are the true president? All his anti abortion and anti socialism stuff is just following orders from his master.

Did it stop being president Putin, or is Trump just getting spitroasted by both of them simultaneously?

What, junior assistent deputy backup "president" Donald Trump is furious that President Elon Musk outranks him and gives him orders? He cannot be mad at President Elon Musk, President Elon Musk could order a nuclear strike on his house, does lowly Donald Trump not know that? He should thank his President Elon Musk for bringing him with him to the white house, Elon Musk's new residence!

I predict this will be an ongoing but toxic thing, like a really bad relationship between two people who just won’t break up.

They’ve essentially married themselves to each others’ power… But also, they literally need entire media platforms to stroke their egos.

Good..I hope they tear each other to pieces.

The narcissists are fiiiightiiiiing!

Trump is pretty vulnerable. He won’t complete his full term

So which one gets into a horrible accident /assassination?

Either one has the willingness and lack of foresight to take out the other

I had this discussion with people IRL recently, wondering who the real power behind the throne was, because when they let him do interviews on his own, it's clear the orange figurehead is too far gone with dementia to be this organized and focused on the transition. I hope that the real power behind the throne is Leon, because he's so stupid. Dangerous, yes, but not as insidiously dangerous as somebody smart.

In any case, I want this to be true. It's exactly what I would've predicted, so I'll keep calling him President Musk.

May the drama be protracted and leave them both weakened

"I am an alpha male."

Except Joe Biden is president of the United States…

Hear me out: put them in a ring and let the gladiator games begin. Let the ego flow. It's best for all of us.
