I bet trump dumps Elon.

He won’t share the spotlight.

Trump will soon get tired of Elon and dump him in about two years.

Not going to happen. Elon funded PAC is going to funding the primaries in 2 years time and well into the future. So all American first candidates will be packing the congress.
He also has X and MSM influence is dead.

Elon's words I am paraphrasing, he will be your greatest friend but if you cross him he will be your worst enemy.

Democrats and wokes tried their best to screw him.
Elon waited and at the most appropriate time shoved a boot up their collective Aholes.

Can two egomaniacs coexist? We will find out. It is not difficult to see where @Blademaster is coming from - in Trump 1.0 there was a major shake up every other day. Do you remember his fallout with Rex Tillerson?

 

[ezsasa]

All that you wrote works as long as there's internal cohesion & a national consensus. The latter may be hidden from the public eye & unspoken like the need to get out of Afghanistan for instance which enjoyed bipartisan support.

But the crux of my point is this internal competition is no longer within manageable levels . The society started tearing at its seams during Bush's regime. 9/11 interrupted things for a brief while after which it was biz as usual. All this wokery we're seeing was birthed then & under Obummer received a huge filip.

Then came Trump & things escalated to a whole new level . It's going to be MUCH more of the same this time around once his opponents recover their wits.

9/11 happened 8 months into bush jr's presidency, what were the hot topics in those 8 months?

during his 8 year tenure a few major hot topics(protests) i could remember, apart from war related topics :
- abortion
- anti-war
- anti-racism (on behalf of brown skinned people/arabs)
- environmentalism
- controversial ballot counting
- cost of living (not a protest but general discontent)

all are libtard causes except the last one. libtards raise the anxieties of public when they are not in power, that's their default strategy.

before bush jr's tenure, hot topic was clinton-monika lewinsky scandal, based on news we were getting in our papers.

Rex Tillerson lol. No one liked him and he was a weak pick.
Elon Musk has F U money and F U influence, he has been idolized for decades in cartoons, movies, TV shows etc.

Hell even some democrat law maker in PA called him a tony stark like personality and cult, when the media was asking about his effect in state of PA.

If you're arguing about a BLM then I doubt there was anything on that scale in Bush's presidency. However the general trend was a kind of anti Republicanism we normally see from left liberals with the usual topics we're used to seeing today , the features of which you've listed , minus the amplification on SM - a feature absent then .

IIRC gay marriage was just about rearing its head up then . Here's a clip on the subject from a televised debate when Obummer was running to be senator against Alan Keyes. Initially Obummer wasn't a supporter of gay marriage but later "changed his views."

The 'evolution' of Obama's stance on gay marriage

www.nbcnews.com

The clip is a good example of how feeling good as opposed to discussing threadbare the necessity of such a profound act is what prompted most fence sitters into backing this radical move with Obummer knowing which side of the bread ought to buttered.

Rex Tillerson lol. No one liked him and he was a weak pick.

I mean;

According to reports, in a July 20 meeting, Trump allegedly suggested a tenfold increase in the U.S. nuclear arsenal, which would cost trillions and take centuries–reports that were denied by White House officials and by Trump – after which individuals familiar with the meeting told journalists that Tillerson either called Trump a "moron" or a "fucking moron". Additionally, there were well-sourced reports of Tillerson offering to resign his office as secretary of state, only to be discouraged from doing so by Vice President Mike Pence; however, these were officially denied both by Tillerson and by the White House. Furthermore, on October 1, Trump directly contradicted, via Twitter, Tillerson's policy of negotiation with North Korea; this move was widely panned by experts, who thought such a public undermining of the U.S.'s chief diplomat would weaken his ability to negotiate. On October 10, after Tillerson's alleged "moron" comment was reported in the media, Trump challenged Tillerson to "IQ tests"; three days later Senator Bob Corker from Tennessee, the chair of the influential Senate Foreign Relations Committee who had become a vocal Trump critic around that time, remarked that Trump was "publicly castrating" Tillerson.

I am not kidding - this is precisely how things unfolded between him and the person he hand-picked all by himself.

Elon Musk has F U money and F U influence, he has been idolized for decades in cartoons, movies, TV shows etc.

News from 2022;

‘Rocketships To Nowhere’: Trump Mocks Elon Musk’s Companies In Latest Round Of Attacks

The war of words is on full blast, after Musk told Trump on Monday to "hang up his hat & sail into the sunset" and the former president claimed Tuesday the world’s richest man once called himself a "big Trump fan."

www.forbes.com

He might be the richest dude on the planet but that still does not mean that he won't be catching strays from Donnie.

Not to mention that Trump has billionaire backers like Thiel (the person who hand-picked JD Vance - if you go by the rumors that is) etc who despise Elmo. MAGA is not a monolith.

Hell even some democrat law maker in PA called him a tony stark like personality and cult, when the media was asking about his effect in state of PA.

Elmo went full pignat following the fall-out with his transgender daughter and has been like that ever since. He is looking to force his worldview on the masses ever since (as @SKC pointed out).

The far left has George Soros.

The extreme right has Elmo.

Sem2sem.

Dude destoryed his carefully crafted public image (of being the real life Tony Stark) in the process. But I do not think he gives a damn.

.

I feel he's a chameleon and his "one son out of a fucking dozen children turning into a tranny" boo fucking hoo is a convenient figleaf for normal peoples to justify for his pignat nanga-naach of today

He possibly has some other axe to grind against the Demonrats and Deep State baboondom of US so he is just riding the Trump/MAGA/Pignat wave till all his (((goals))) are met, once that is done he will go against Trumpwa and MAGAtardery openly.

Even today he has muh "Tony Stark of our times" simps/fanbois

He will definitely lose half of his customer base for Tesla and Starlink, and will face headwinds from employees of NASA.

Most people cannot stand the idea of a guy who became a billionaire only with the help of the US government to take charge of a department that would essentially lay off a lot of people and cut aid and loans to a lot of people when he had been the largest private recipient of US government aid.

That was already happening to him long before he supported Trump.
Hell broke loose when Elon bought Twitter. That was the line he crossed and all the woke went wild.

We should get the chronology right.
Him supporting Trump will give him the political muscle he was lacking before.

And let's not forget the PAC he started. They are not just providing support for Presidential elections, they are involved in DA, Senate and house races. Even LA district DA lost.

What you are seeing is a very very very wealthy man who has been ridiculed, abused and trashed saying 'enough is enough' and is taking matters into his hands.
His support to Trump is not the first domino, it's the final one. There were a dozen dominos from the left looking to screw Elon for a while now.

Going ahead, just like how Soros is involved in DA's elections, Elon will have his own DA's and that a power move.

Problem for Elon's enemies is that he is has more wealth than all of them combined and it's not even close.
Why democrats went after this guy who was their supporter is baffling!

There has been pin drop silence about India after Trump win

Understandable. Trump one US elections not GE of India. India shall be relieved if US just tones down its meddling in India.

This is something I completely agree with.

Exhibit 786 why GoI should never ever let Stralink in. I do not want India to be subjected to the whims and fancies of an unpredictable meth addict asshole.

 

[Suryavanshi]

Absent father and son turns into a tranny.
Many such cases, Elon has no one to blame but himself.
Children aren't the kind of thing that you will throw money at and they will turn out alright, one has to personally get involved to make things right.

Most of his wealth are paper value and tied to Tesla. If Tesla loses half of his customer base, Tesla will tank overnight and there will be serious revolt from institutional shareholders. Half of SpaceX contracts come from NASA and government agencies. He needs government approval for Starlink licensing. If those two things are gone SpaceX will become worthless.

He has yet to make Twitter profitable and Twitter’s value has already been halved since he took over it.

So I wouldn’t say that he can get easily his way.

SpaceX and Starlink are the future. With Boeing engines fiasco, even NASA would not dare mess with SpaceX.
These 2 are gold for Elon.

Tesla's only competitors are the Chinese cars.
The other US brands are pretty useless in front of Tesla.

It's funny how the left with all their talk of environment etc etc are looking to go against the very company that is the future in reducing risks to environment.

Twitter was always over-valued.
Elon bought it because every other rich guy had a medium and he did not.
Forget the share value, twitter has already provided Elon with more returns than anyone has expected.

SpaceX starship alone saves 2 billions dollars per launch compared to the SLS(LM, Boeing, RocketDyne rtc cartel) that is excluding development cost of SLS which is now tens of billions.

So the USSF and Nasa doesn't a choice but to rely on them. Pentagon is even think of using a starship has earth to earth payload delivery vehicle.

Next Gen starlink sattelite will be bigger and more immuned to jamming.

But bulk of Elon net worth is from Tesla. Not SpaceX.

EU is not going to touch Elon companies as long as Trump and Republicans are in power. The change of guard in Republican party has happened. All of the old school neocon Republicans senators and representatives will be primaried in the elections with Elon PAC money.
