If he does leave office, it’s possible many people will go after him if they can. I know the SCOTUS decided the president can do whatever he wants with legal impunity, but I am sure he can still be dragged into a lot of legal battles given the extravagant number and level of crimes he is committing on a weekly basis. Why put himself through that in his last few years when he can just stay on top and shit on everybody, enjoying himself with our suffering? This guy is all in, he has made a new playbook for the oligarchy, and he is never going back unless the rest of the oligarchs decide he is a liability. Even then, he wont give up easily. My guess is he will leave the White House in a coffin (either old age or hanged by a mob)

There is a basic assumption in most news articles, that most of voters are somehow misguided and that with the right information they will eventually change their minds. In the case of MAGA and adjacent Republicans, we are talking about people that have been bred by the system to respond to certain kind of messaging and little else. They are mentally handicapped by the system, they do not possess the tools to process what is happening and even their basic humanity has been sabotaged. The solution is not to convince them to change their vote, but to discourage them from taking any actions. This is what the system does with progressives, they discourage them and convince them that politics are useless. It’s time this is used against the lobotomized strongest minority.

The people in the comments saying that the Iron Dome allows Israel to continue to pogrom Palestinians are hypocrites and nihilists. It is technically true. Israel without a defense system would be destroyed very quickly, becoming like Gaza and unable to do anything. But don’t mask this as if this would somehow bring peace in any way other than that after a complete nuclear holocaust, the earth would be peaceful. Just say you want Israel to be wiped off from the map.

I mean that’s his MO, he always ditches the people that work under the moment it would inconvenience him, it’s why all his former underlings hate him.

The only explanation for this is that Trump basically milked Musk’s popularity with dumb people and kept him around until Musk was no longer useful. Musk on the other hand thought he was going to control Trump to be a shadow president on his crazy drug-induced power trip but got a reality check and now his ego is hurt and is making a fuss. I doubt this will gain any traction, to build a political party is extremely expensive, Reps and Dems have hundreds of rich people behind them for greasing the wheels, plus brand recognizability and organized people and community presence. The most we can tell from this is that billionaires still need a political front to push their agenda and see how many times can Musk fail without losing his fortune.

If they do and Trump gets it, we know how far the far right has compromised Europe. It’s a coup in slow motion so it’s good to know at which point we are right now.

At this point she is trolling with legislation, this is not even legislation for financial profit, she is just doing it to fuck with the minds of people that support green energy transition against climate change. Pure malicious glee. I hope she faces mob justice at this point.

These people are rewarded for their abhorrent actions, of course they are going to turn it up to eleven. Do more of what works for them. Question is, when is the rest of society going to make an example out of one of them.

Hopefully he meets a peaceful end with an appropriate tie around his neck that shows how much people appreciate his life’s works.

Meh, these type of infighting doss not mean anything. Trump is a miser that exerts pressure by complaining about his underlings. The supreme court has done it’s job to undermine US democracy by letting a criminal run for president.

On the same note, Musk criticizing the BBB is also just Musk’s style of overly criticizing his employees when things don’t go his way. It is more of a disorientation tactic, the same chaotic energy that keeps producing meaningless news that overflow the working memory of adults. It’s all part of the routine.

I agree it should be illegal and it is immoral, but these are the current rules of the game. It’s not that Bill Gates is necessarily evil, the problem is how modern states and societies distribute wealth, which is based on a credit system where small incomes are dominated by large incomes (owners get most of the credit). The guise is that they also assume the risk but we know that very rich people eventually gain political power to mitigate that risk on the many not rich people. The problem then is that there is no easy way for not rich people to self organize and distribute credit more fairly, which also needs to distribute risk as well. Cause at the end of the day, it is about two things: people wanting to avoid risk and yielding credit and people accumulating wealth and gaining political power, over many generations. That said, Musk is a very twisted and malicious personality while Bill Gates is more of a typical rich entitled person with a savior complex.
