I call Bullshit.
While Elonazi has gained much in contracts/income from the current "government", in the process, the rankings of his various "businesses" has tanked.
Reality is: He'll take some time off, focus on attempting to restore any good will possible for his businesses, then be right back in the political fray shortly before the midterms.
Problem with that plan is he's in no position to regain any so-called "good will" as the Nazi bastard has quite publicly and blatantly revealed much too much about who he actually is.
Fuck. Elonazi.
🤡 🖕
Bullshit indeed. His assets should be seized, distributed to the poor, and he should suffer the fate of all the Nazis before him.
He and the rest of the Nazi administration.
And any remnants of the confederacy. They should also get the unnazification treatment
Slight correction, it's de-nazification. But also, SHERMAN 2 ELECTRIC BOOGALOO LET'S GO BURN DOWN DESANTI'S AND ORANGE FUCKWITS HOUSES!
Throw those two taintstains from Texas in there too: Abbot and Paxton
Fixing your correction: the Un unnazied the world forever
That ride sucks.
Pretty sure Elon and Kanye are on the same path. So Elon will take some time off and then suddenly have another manic episode and repeat everything 2x worse than the last time.
This is why he won't be back I think. Maybe shadow or dark money wise sure, but in the public eye? He can't lose his billions, it's all he has.
He’s just going to join the other ultra-wealthy mega-donors and funnel funds through dark money shell companies. He needs those government subsidies and contracts to remain wealthy.
The thing about doing a deal with mobsters is that you don’t get to say when you’re done helping them
Elon‘s gonna find that out.
