Summary
Democratic strategist Chai Komanduri claims Elon Musk has “taken over” MAGA and the Republican Party, likening it to how Trump originally took control of the GOP.
Musk, a former Biden supporter, shifted to Republicans over disagreements on free speech, immigration, and public health.
Now a close Trump ally, Musk has donated $75 million to pro-Trump groups and will co-lead the “Department of Government Efficiency” to reduce government waste.
His rising influence in GOP politics is seen as positioning him as a potential MAGA successor.
No expropriation necessary. All hes got to do is knock out Tesla’s subsidies and SpaceX’s government contracts…maybe have the DOT and FAA take a reeaaal close look at their safety records just to put the final nail in their coffins. Trump is petty though, my bingo card say he also threatens to strip him of his citizenship and have him deported before this is all over.
The day he deports musk will be the only day I ever wholeheartedly support something cheeto mussolini does.
I doubt he would actually be able to do it. Even if he had a solid case, Musk has the money to drag this through the courts until long after Trump is gone. However, Im pretty sure hell make a big show of the threat when they inevitably have their falling out.
If Trump wanted to deport Musk, he’d just do it. It’s not like the courts have ever stopped Trump from doing whatever he wants.
What? No, they stopped him all the time. They never hold him accountable, but they stopped all sorts of crazy shit.
Trump makes it an “official act” to send the Army division of his choice to Musk’s mansion, battering ram the door down, throw him in the back of the nearest C-17, and drop him naked at the gate of Camp Lemonnier.
Shove him out of the plane with a parachute over South Africa.
Or without one. SCOTUS already ruled that Trump just has to say “official act” and there is literally nothing he can be held accountable for.
