Looks like President Musk is still in charge.
Musk needs smart people to exploit. It’s now Trump’s job to suck him off
Donwvoted because no fascists were actually stabbed
In due time
Thoughts and prayers

Don’t worry, it has just begun. Blood will flow in time.
Vice President Trump has to get on board with President Musk’s policy platform in public even if they disagree in private.
That should be, First Lady Trump. Vance is Vice President.
Vance is the presidential dog that humps the furniture.

Might have something to do with the tractor trailers full of Peter Thiel’s money that follows him around everywhere
Please correct me if I’m wrong, but wasn’t Trump trying to tighten H1-B visas in his first term to make it harder to import foreign workers?
You’re looking for consistency where there is none.
Good point.
“I don’t stand by anything.” Donald Trump, 2017
His supporters generally have a memory span of about 3 days
You see, that was before Musk bought him.
It seems donvict is quite flexible on his positions. Kinda like his view on TikTok…
The flexibility of the rights platform is actually one of their greatest strengths.
They are happy to flip-flop on things that they kinda care about in order to keep people onside and get what they really care about.
We on the left should learn from this. Less purity tests and trying to die on every hill or we’re fucked.
And lo, America realized the foreign Nazi techbro had control of the whole country once he had the leader chosen by the neophytes and bigots cucking for him.
… America realized …
lol no
People such as those here on Lemmy probably did long ago. Meanwhile, most of the right is totally asleep on matters of labor rights and the class war (being conducted ON them).
This administrations alliances are easy to figure out
Who has the most money? … that’s who they’ll support
I’m betting that President Elect Musk pulled some election BS and is holding it over Taint Maid Trump’s head for leverage.
South African apartheid, coming soon to a state near you
I mean, he literally did. Are you forgetting the part where Musk was straight up buying votes in swing states? It was all public corruption, the U.S. just isn’t doing shit about it.
Pretty neat little conspiracy. Musk tells Don, I can rig it, Don takes the deal, monkey paw outcome: Musk blackmails Don with proof of cheating. I don’t know how plausible it actually is, but it’s interesting as a story.

This might have been a believable conspiracy theory eight years ago during Trump’s first term, but we live in 2024, where twice-impeached and convicted felon Donald Trump won reelection. I can’t imagine there’s any dirt that can actually harm him at this point. He doesn’t need to seek anybody’s approval, and nothing he ever does can come back to hurt him. He’s a king now and people need to come to grips with that new reality. Approval ratings mean nothing. Censures mean nothing. Impeachments mean nothing.
If I were Trump and somebody had dirt on me, I’d say “Go ahead and tell them. I’ll come out and tell them that it’s true and that I was smart to do it. And then they’ll love me even more for it and they’ll make you public enemy number one for going against me.”
First, Acting President-Elect Musk kicking the Maga-Brains in the balls with his H-1B dreams, now Good Little Boy Trump biting at Bannon. I love them coming apart like that. Let the fight begin!
It’s going to come down to moneyed interests, I think. How they keep the racist interests happy is the real question.
They are going to need some major distraction for the people that will not benefit by and/or be actively harmed by H-1Bs taking American jobs…I just wonder what it will be. It was a pretty big mistake for Musk/Bannon to give away the job-stealing game so publicly. It’s like they are rubbing magabrainz noses right in it by this public slapfight. The magabrainz are not really known for their long-term memory, but this is really close to home for a lot of jobs and it was in the headlines for days…I bet more than a few remember and so MurdochCo is going to need one helluva distraction to keep their minds off of this, most especially if they do lose their jobs and/or have a hard time getting a new job with similar compensation due to the H-1B scam.
The ultra-rich in his base, whether they are racist or not, are most likely delighted by the prospect of destroying American jobs.
And Bannon is why Trump is where he is.
May the MAGA civil war completely halt their ability to get anything done.
There is one thing I’d like to see them accomplish in the MAGA civil war, and that is the absolute and utter destruction of the MAGA klans.
Elon Musk manages to make some pretty cool sunglasses look not cool.

His newest wife was one of those illegal immigrants he hates.
But yes, eventually she did get an EB-1, aka an “Einstein Visa.” Helps to be fucking a rich guy I guess.
Trump just can’t get enough of that Musk teet.
Balls deep in Trump e is!
Trump: Musk’s bitch
