After apologizing to Trump, the Tesla CEO returns to his favorite battleground: attacking liberals and “wokeism," as he tries to repair his image among conservative hardliners.
I firmly believe that he wants to be Trump’s successor. When Trump dies or if he actually doesn’t try to run in 2028, Musk will be there to pick up the MAGA flag.
They only care about the constitution when it serves their own interest. So I wouldn’t be surprised if they continue to disregard the constitution, since no one seems to actually hold them accountable.
I don’t mean Trump’s successor as president necessarily, just that he wants to have the MAGA crowd cheering for him and listening to him the same way they cheer for and listen to Trump. He wants the spotlight that Trump has; he’s as big of a narcissist as Trump is, and I think he’s jealous that Trump is out-narcissisting him. Though, as InnovativeInquirer notes, I don’t think it’s beyond these people at all to ignore the constitution when it’s in their interests to do so, so who knows.
He desperately wants to be, yeah. The problem is he’s vile and off-putting even to Trump’s fans. Never has anyone so wealthy and powerful reeked of loserdom so badly.
He could have used this opportunity to do the villain redemption arc, but no. He really likes being the villain I guess.
Its hard to find redemption while being a fucking nazi.
I mean, American History X is a great movie and all but I doubt that often that happens in reality.
“Abundance” libs like Matt Yglesias were publicly salivating at the opportunity to start glazing Elon again.
Great movie, super important message, also super hard to watch because it is so… Needed to understand? I don’t know how to word that.
Ok so just to be clear, he is:
He was never a good dude

He’s not eligible for president without a constitutional amendment.

The USA doesn’t really do the constitution any more.

the crowd the villain plays to is much easier to play to and extract money from
