    A fallout between Don Taco and the Ketamine Kid would be beneficial to the public. I’ll believe it when I actually see it. Until they stop doing this empty posturing I’m not going to believe it.

    He was the useful idiot that outlived his usefulness and stayed too long. The fascist machine doesn’t need him anymore.

    If this wasn’t theater he would have already cut them.

    Entirely fabricated reality show drama and the media/citizens are eating it up.

      You really think anyone can plan, organize, and execute something of that scale?

        It’s method acting.

        Everyone from the lowest LARP’ing ICE agents to the orange faced chief of clowns have been in role for so many years that they all forgot what reality is outside of their theatre of the grotesque.

      trump got really bent out of shape with the TACO nickname. If he doesn’t follow through with this it will be a prime opportunity to point out yet more TACO evidence.

    Yet he’s still working on making the DOGE cuts permanent, with not a single message about reversing them.

    Lip service, why would I expect anything else?

      He’s he has already vaguely insinuated that fact today since he mentioned that Trump wouldn’t have won without his help. So get from that what you will.

        He can vaguely insuinate all he wants.

        What I want is for him in a drug fueled stupor to release actual evidence that undeniably shows he stole an election.

        They’re fucking dumb enough to do it

        I don’t know if I’d read it to that extent.

        Over $200 million in donations and full control of a massive social media network is nothing to sneeze at. Not to say I don’t think he wouldn’t have helped rig it, I just think his statement could be taken as an understanding of the money and control of X being massive contributions. Hell, he took the “@america” handle away from a user to use it in support of Trump.

          I think a more damning claim was when Trump said on stage Elon helped with those vote counting machines and knows computers.

    I was talking to someone the other day about why Musk is the ideal failbillionaire for this because Trump can have ICE deport him. Expect to see Peter Thiel take his place on the glsss guillotine

    I think this is just kayfabe, but it would be oh so funny if vindictive prick Donny works himself into a shoot and rescinds those government contracts. It would be even funnier if he reopened those pesky probes into Elon’s business practices.

      I don’t think either man has thick enough skin to allow insults like this to be made public even if they are in on the joke. They don’t see themselves through their own eyes. I’m guessing they only see what they imagine others are seeing.

        This is my take on it too.

        I really don’t think it’s likely that they’re just posturing as a distraction - I don’t think either one of them is that subtle. But even if they are, I think they’re both so thin-skinned that even if they didn’t start out serious, they’re going to end up that way.
