Musk is who we deserve. The country that treats money as speech and corporations as people and bribery as political action has the worlds richest man controlling it. Finally, the world is making some fucking sense.
2A thumpers defend school shootings as required to defend against tyrants. Tyrants literally in our buildings and giving nazi salutes? Nothing.
Americans currently rereading the 2nd amendment: "Damn, if we could only use them outside of schools, things would be fixed quickly"
It's weird that Jefferson literally demanded helpless children be shot in schools like that but hey that's what the Constitution says so I guess we gotta let em do it.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN SOMEONE TOOK A KNEE AT THE NATIONAL ANTHEM??!!???
if you think trump is bad, just wait to be ruled directly by those fuckers instead of via proxy.
Who's to say we're not already. Just look at how much golfing Trump has already been up to! I bet he ends up spending more time in Florida than in DC.
yeah, but that still has the limitation of having to at least pretend. I dread to think what will happen when they stop caring about that and just directly take control.
it's only a coup if it comes from the Coup d'Etat region of France, otherwise it's just a sparkling government takeover.
Which is why the US has never actually staged a coup in a foreign country. Not many people know that
Hey, hey. Elon Musk purchased the US fair and square, we've known that for like 3 months now, no need to go acting all surprised!
The Incorporated States of America?
Unelected weirdo walks into government facilities and does what he wants.
They want to turn the US into kleptocratic empire ruled by organised crime, like Russia or Angolan former dictator Jose dos Santos with his Russian family
Nah, everybody relax. Go to work, come home to your 2.3 kids. Everything is normal. President Musk is doing everything he can to take care of the immigrant and LGBTQ problem, the only problems the USA has. Men could be playing womens sports, guys. I mean it. Massive fucking problem.
If I ever come home to 2.3 kids I'm gonna be so mad. Where is the 0.7 kids I'm missing?!

What does first lady trump say about this?
He’s just making weird grunting noises, kinda sounds like an orangutan
One is fascist narcissistic billionaire and other is criminal
This reboot of The Odd Couple is really weird.
Is it a coup if Trump and Republicans have given him permission and letting him do what he wants?
Yes. Since he wasn't elected and the actions he is taking require actual laws to pass to occur legally
Although no one was prosecuted
Why the FUCK do we keep letting people get away with this shit??
I believe the theory is that Roosevelt sat down with the Business Plot crew in secret and gave them the option of a) they convince their business pals not to oppose the New Deal too much or b) they hang. Obviously they picked option a.
This is the kinda shit that needs to be taught to everyone in US history class.
Fully understand what is happening here in America. The far right has destroyed the rule of law and are just acting to destroy our government. Don’t let this happen to your country. Don’t let Elon Musk any where near your elections or near your country.
Too late. He tweeted "Cześć" (or Hello). How scared should I be?
Russians and fossil fuel corporations are cheering
