Or publicly wondered why nobody has attempted to assassinate Kamala Harris.Musk: "By now, they should know that I mean what I say"
Except when I call a British diver a pedo, or say that Tesla is going private at $420, or tell my baby mamas that I will be a good dad.

He also has no authority to cut any department, defund any program, fire a single person, etc.Your naivete is very endearing.
Elon isn't in Congress. He holds no office. He has no accountability to voters. There is no mechanism to control him because the Republicans are entirely in his pocket. He bought a government and he will run it as he sees fit.
But he has the financial wherewithal to remove any elected official who opposes him at the next election.He also has no authority to cut/defund anything, fire a single person, etc.
Throwing this out there to potentially quell the concerns about the Trump admin.But he has the financial wherewithal to remove any elected official who opposes him at the next election.
How much would you say the in-kind contribution of misinformation made possible by Twitter was worth to Trump's campaign?Throwing this out there to potentially quell the concerns about the Trump admin.
You say Elon has the financial wherewithal to remove any elected official. I think Trump wins this election without Elon, but that's just speculation.
I recognize that financial support is huge...but I also know that Harris spent about double Trump and still lost.
I would also note that even Trump himself, when he put his full support behind candidates, couldn't get Kari Lake, Dr. Oz, etc elected. He has short coattails.
In other words, I don't see Congress agreeing to anything that is going to put the Republicans at risk in 2026, 2028 and beyond. Trump will be gone. While Trump is popular, none of the other MAGA-type underlings are and he's barely able to get his people into office when he's in power now.

Not sure. I believe Elon endorsed Trump after first assassination attempt. Did his support have an effect? I'm sure it did. Was that endorsement an election-changing event? I don't believe it was any more than Taylor Swift's endorsement made a huge difference. I think people generally make their own decisions.How much would you say the in-kind contribution of misinformation made possible by Twitter was worth to Trump's campaign?
He is not speaking about Musk’s endorsement, but instead about Musk’s propaganda machine.Not sure. I believe Elon endorsed Trump after first assassination attempt. Did his support have an effect?

Harris campaign spent more than Trump campaign, but that omit the spending (such as Musk’s) which was done through groups outside the campaign.Throwing this out there to potentially quell the concerns about the Trump admin.

It's also political suicide when trump wants something and he has his watchdog musk threaten to fund the opponent, since the sitting representative is a RINO.Because it would be political suicide for many Republican Senators and Representatives to support a bill re-federalizing abortion, especially such a restrictive bill.
Mr Populist will reward them well... along with himself and his clan. If you thought the White House was a litter box for political graft and general corruption during trump's first administration, hang around for act two. Not to worry. The likes of Lindsey Graham will be around to add aromatic excuses to quell the stench.Harris campaign spent more than Trump campaign, but that omit the spending (such as Musk’s) which was done through groups outside the campaign.
There are limits to how much a person can donate to a campaign, so the big money donors operate outside the campaigns. Harris had more money than Trump from “small” donors, but not from the super-wealthy. Those big donor love Mr. Populist lol.
This is extremely naive. Outside dark money PACs can spend unlimited amounts. Musk controls Twitter and can spread immeasurable misinformation about a candidate. He may not be able to elect nutjobs in a general election but he can get nutjobs nominated against “mainstream” Republicans in GOP primaries because Republicans are much more susceptible to his bullshit in primaries than non-Republicans in general elections.Throwing this out there to potentially quell the concerns about the Trump admin.

I agree that a lot of money makes its way through PACs, but that true for both parties. It seems unlikely, given the large spread on individual donations,that there wasn't a similar spread on donations outside of individuals.Harris campaign spent more than Trump campaign, but that omit the spending (such as Musk’s) which was done through groups outside the campaign.

Maybe that’s something good for you to look up.I agree that a lot of money makes its way through PACs, but that true for both parties. It seems unlikely, given the large spread on individual donations,that there wasn't a similar spread on donations outside of individuals.
The difference between the two is actually more than I thought it was, in favor of Harris.Maybe that’s something good for you to look up.
