The Musk Who Stole Christmas

Originally published at: The Musk Who Stole Christmas - TPM – Talking Points Memo

Hello, it’s the weekend. This is The Weekender :coffee: It’s five days before Christmas, and Elon Musk — the unelected billionaire who seems to lack even a Schoolhouse Rock! level of civics attainment — is trying to tank another government spending bill. “So is this a Republican bill or a Democrat bill?” the brilliant legislative…

NO ONE would serve the MAGAts better as Speaker of the House than Elon Musk.

When Elon pushes a button on his desk, Donald brings him a Diet Coke.

(The thought occurs that on January 20th, with the SC’s grant of total immunity in place, Donald’s first “official acts” might be 1) to have a hood thrown over Elon’s head and have him dragged off a CIA black site, and 2) seize all $400 billion of Elon’s assets and keep them in a safe place like a bathroom at Mar-A-Largo.)

Are those bodega cats, perchance?

BREAKING: A new official portrait is out of President-elect Elon Musk and First Lady-in-Waiting Donald Trump.

PS: This is me experimenting with AI art-ing. The program I was using wouldn’t generate a single image of ‘Elon Musk as President and Donald Trump as First Lady in the White House’ — so I did them separately and then melded them. A dire threat to everything America is/was supposed to be, doubled, those two are. But how much can Donald’s sociopathic narcissism take being seen as second fiddle to a fellow narcissist sociopath? Hence, may we all share the idea/meme widely in image and text of Trump as a second fiddle to Musk in any way, shape or form. It’s the one mortal sin in his orbit — to divert attention from his absolute hunger and essential and existential need for adulation and to be the Main Character uber alles.

I don’t get the problem in NC. If there was a problem with voter registration the time to address that was before the election. How does one now tie a contested registration to an anonymous vote?

“Josh Kovensky gives an update on Donald Trump’s supposed plan to pardon all of the Jan. 6 defendants. Now that he’s actually in office,”

Say what? Did I miss the inauguration?

donnie made the mistake of being in awe of Musk’s enormous wealth & thought he could get some. So over the last few days he should’ve learned Musk sees himself as the boss

When it is a question of money, everybody is of the same religion.
– Voltaire

Religion, racism, wealth inequality. It’s the stew on the menu for the next couple years. Bible-hawking Trump certainly gets it, as does President Musk.
