New documentary just out. Worth the watch no matter your political leanings.

[riclag]

I doubt it but I like his ideas , journalism and his Free Speech warrior attitude.

Car buyers sick of Musk.

Tesla posted lower sales across five European countries in January, including the UK, as competitors with newer models gained on the electric vehicle maker and polls show public opinion souring on the controversial CEO. 

China's BYD for the first time on record sold more EVs in Britain than Tesla over a month. In January it recorded 1,614 registrations compared to Tesla's 1,458 units. 

And a new poll of drivers found that three in five now say that Musk puts them off buying a Tesla.

Both current EV and potential EV buyers are turning away from the Musk megalomania, and are instead considering Chinese options, the study by EV website Electrifying.com found.

Musk is Trump's convenient fuse. When things go wrong, he will blame it all on Musk!

[Jingthing]

That's his intent and he's already made lots of progress.

Can we STOP him?

Do enough people even WANT to stop him?

Dunno.

Here's where you're wrong. 

Musk has dirt on Trump. Like Epstein stuff.

Musk is the richest person in the world. 

Trump doesn't have the power to rein in Musk.

Making stuff up and posting it online does not make it true.

True which he is controlling now.

You're forgetting that Trump is rapidly declining both physically and mentally.

He likes to do signing ceremonies where he gets handed stuff from Project 2025 and doesn't even know what he's signing.

He is both incapable and unwilling to do very much presidential work except for the showboating stuff such as insane press conferences where he wages war on our allies.

Musk on the other hand is very willing and able with his tech boy groupies to do massive amounts of actual (EVIL) work. 

I think Musk has Trump by the mushroom.

I guess you're one of the people that actually thinks Musk has the interests of the American people in mind.

Most everyone else has no power.

Musk has awesome power.

Who elected him exactly?

[Screaming]

Its seems the left wing zealots have a new poster boy to hate. Now it is "Musk Derangement Syndrome." The left wing zealots are going to burn themselves out with so much hate. Trump just keeps on winning.

He has no power over me and probably none over you. Stop reading the news if people trigger you so much.

You obviously have no idea what you're talking about if you're American and you don't think that Musk has power over you. 

That said. I have no interest in wasting my time talking to intentionally uninformed people, so ADIOS AMIGO. Enjoy the ride.

No businessman or politician has ever stopped me from eating my favourite foods, going to the beach or gym or sleeping with an attractive woman.

 

You must have a strange and unusual life if famous people control you.

Thank God for sanity

Trump's mind is as sharp as a Ginsu knife. 

He's 15 moves ahead of everybody.

Luckily the rest of the world is not a lawless place like the USA.

If Musk tries to rule the world he will be stopped.

Stop what?

 

He is the pioneer of self-driving cars. 

 

I will be the first one dancing in the streets when human drivers are banned and all cars are self-driving.

Bunch of reckless bad drivers, drunk drivers, hit and run. Dangerous streets will come to an end.

Taxi drivers ripping you off will come to an end.

 

Not sure about all his other projects, but I support the self-driving and it's a leap forward for humanity to get rid of human drivers on the roads. 

 

What contributions have you made to humanity? Let me guess .... none. Me neither.
