The Twit destroying Twitter is a Twaitor

Remember when he made an empty pledge to help those kids who were trapped in a mine or whatever, and when he got turned down he lashed out by calling the guy a pedophile?

Every accusation is a confession.

Elon Musk denies reported $45 million a month pledge to Trump, says he doesn't 'subscribe to cult of personality’

Though the billionaire said he has created a new super political action committee (PAC) to fund the Republican candidate.

once again he fails to deliver on a promise.

Musk likely doesn't have the liquidity to even afford it. Most of his wealth is tied up in stocks.

I'm eagerly awaiting news of Trump suing Musk for breach of contract.

“One of those values being meritocracy, as much meritocracy as possible, so you get ahead as a function of your skill, and nothing else,” Musk said.

Amazing.

Love how people who are rich and successful because their parents had money like to talk about meritocracy.

Elon in a true meritocracy:

I feel the best response to anything Elon says is a reply he got a rando on twitter, "Shut the **** up, Oligarch"

'Very few' Democrats are willing to buy a Tesla after Elon Musk endorsed Donald Trump

The Tesla CEO has become increasingly more controversial and openly political in recent years

Republicans won't buy EVs because they love huffing CO₂, and now Democrats won't buy Teslas because Musk is an alt-right weirdo.

Good thing Phony Stark isn't getting some sort of ridiculous multi-billion pay package or anything. The shareholders would be fools to approve something like that.

Funny thing about that, there HAS been an uptick in Tesla sales to right wingers since Musk started showing his true colors, though not enough to offset the lost sales to left wingers.

 

[The Mighty Mollusk]

I wouldn't buy a Tesla because they have way too many reports of being incredibly, often dangerously, flawed, but Musk's bullshit doesn't help either.

 

[Ungnome]

Sad part is many of those flaws are a direct result of Musk interfering with the design and manufacturing processes.

The assumption is it's because they mistake them for dumpsters.

 

[The Mighty Mollusk]

Silly raccoons. Dumpsters are actually useful.

Hey, if this is what it takes to get them to go electric...

Meanwhile the rest of us have plenty of other options at this point.

(It's a joke image, but apparently people are specifically ganging up on anyone with a Cybertruck in game.)

Wonderful.

If I were Kamala Harris right now, I'd be putting "have Elon Musk disappeared and all his businesses dissolved" on my list of things to do come February.

I mean; it's nice that he's doing other things than pushing conspiracy theories, punishing people who call him out for his crap, and building deadly, shitty vehicles.
