Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, on Monday said he would back challengers to members of Congress who vote for President Donald Trump's "big, beautiful bill."
The difference is that Musk doesn’t depend on Trump to remain relevant (or solvent). All those others absolutely do: They were nothing before Trump, and nothing without him.
Musk definitely depends on government contracts for his companies. If Trump cancels those all his companies will take a big hit which in turn will take a big chunk off his net worth which is propped by shares in those companies. If his net worth substantially goes down he may run into issues getting credit which will affect him directly. Elon Musk uses his stock to take loans to fund his personal expenses among other things.
Oh, this is going to get good, isn’t it?
No. Its going to continue getting worse unfortunately…
Might as well have some entertainment while civilization is collapsing
That’s why I am high
All day, every day. I’m glad weed is legal now cause it’s the only way to survive this nightmare reality.
Yep, one of the only things keeping me going
Gallows humour and schadenfreude is all that most people have left to enjoy.
Meh, I can see no harm from Republican infighting.
“The story of America”
No. Trump will threaten NASAs contracts with SpaceX and musk will say “sorry daddy”.
That’s the neat part, NASA has already been severely cut by this bill.
MACO!

He could always try living within his means, you know, like rich republicans always say poor people should do.
An explosion of dumpster fires.

No nothing is good about two asshole like this going head to head.

Bad example because I’d eat Jennifer Connelly‘s ass like it was my last meal.
