    He can fuck right off. I don’t believe him and Trump are actually at odds and I think this is an attempt to create an opposition party that’s even more under conservative control than the Democrats are.

      The chances that a real Elon party signifigantly stealing votes from the Republicans to the point it causes an actual vote split is basically nil. The voter base is stupid, but not so stupid to hand a brand new party anything out of the gate.

      Now, controlled opposition, is a foundation of the farce that is Russian democracy, and both DT and Elon are staunch admirers of Putin’s system where its a mob masquerading as a government with total control

      This is the wildest take I’ve seen so far.

      It would split the vote amongst the least same, and consolidate the vote for Dems.

      What’s the upside for Musk here?

        Government contracts for his money-hommorhaging companies. A direct link to corrupt world leaders. The fascists aren’t above rigging elections and I have zero doubt that if they could they’d put control in the hands of the Republicans and place this new bullshit party in over Dems.

        We’re not in a “normal” America, anymore. Billionaires absolutely cannot be trusted.
