Good!
Is he going to invent something worse than MAGA? !
Yes, the X party, most likely 🙄
Good, also fuck him
I wish they fight to the death
And both loose
Alright, time to start primarying if you’re not totally full of shit, elon.
Do it if you’re not a bussy.
Ok so wtf?
“Why aren’t you as genocidal as my family!”
Next to….
“I’m trying to fuck my daughter as hard as I can!”
The rest of us….
If Elonazi actually manages to maintain the attention span to see this through over the next 1.5-2yrs, I’m all in and here for it…
But, the reality side of me holds little to no hope this particular tantrum will last. Especially given Mafia Don Mangolini holds the checkbook for all Elonazi’s gov’t “income”. 🤡 🖕 💩
So almost all of them?
Nope. 51-50.
My brain in a sleepy state injected the word “Republican” in the title. Lol, oops.
That’s the senate
Primary with who? They’re all MAGA.
I fucking hate this dude with all my heart but if he actually does it then I’ll take a cautious “the enemy of my enemy is my friend” stance.
The enemy of my enemy who is also my enemy gets shot after one of them kills the other.
Ahh. The Sun Tsu approach to war.
Hey any action is simplified greatly if you wait for it to partially resolve itself before your own involvement. Worked great for the Turks when the Romans killed each other the night before battle.
This is another point that can be used as an argument against Machiavelli’s philosophy. It was well-written, but I’m not sure a prince should trust the advice of a guy his family threw in prison. The Prince might be chock full of intentionally written bad advice for all we know. …such as always take a side to form allies, rather than Sun Tsu’s approach of allowing them to exhaust themselves without interfering.
That’s at least partially because of Italian philosophy as a whole, picking sides is great when you are the biggest monster on the field like say the Romans but once you aren’t? Well better to bunker down and focus on other things like say trade. Worked great for Denmark, Switzerland, and historically Scotland.
they will lose their primary next year if it is the last thing I do on this Earth
Win win.
Excuse my ignorance, but what does this mean? He threatens to ‘primary’ members of Congress?
I’ve tried searching, and that wasn’t much help, employees of said member are to quickly start looking for another job. Something happens at the end of term… And a Time magazine article, which was beyond useless in explaining what it is.
I’m none the wiser… 🤷
Congress members in the US are elected in constituencies. For each constituency each party typically fields one candidate. Before the actual election, the parties hold primary elections to determine the candidate for the constituency for that particular party. Pretty much anyone can run in these primaries. Your chance of winning very much depends on the support, i.e. funding you have. If Elmo decides to fund candidates that would challenge the incumbents in the primaries, he could likely unseat quite a few of them on account of having a lot of money. And yes, this is all deeply undemocratic.
Thank you. Every time I think the US election system couldn’t be any more open to corruption, I’m proven wrong. Learning something new every day.
Wait until you hear about super-PACs.
Wait until they hear about AIPAC.
This is the reason he will be ignored. He has more money, but wouldn’t be willing to spend it. Israel gets some it back with military deals, he wouldn’t.
The ability to corrupt is inversely proportional to how active our citizens are in the political process.
Only like 10% of eligible voters vote in primary elections. That likely makes it far easier for money to buy enough name recognition via advertising to make a financially backed candidate a shoe in. But if you look at something like the NYC mayoral primary, a grassroots movement with support still beats moneyed interests.
That said, our country does a lot to discourage participation in our political process.
And yes, this is all deeply undemocratic.
Agreed, and it’s worth noting the Republican party has done the same thing to candidates who weren’t far enough to the right.
That’s essentially what they did over the last couple decades. Remember the Tea Party?
If the party isn’t where you want it, drag it there.
I mean, go ahead Muskrat, but please also go the fuck away.
They’re fighting again? I thought they kissed and made up after musk told us that Trump…
After musk reaffirmed the facts we already know about trump raping little girls with Epstein?
Did he take it back?
As much as one can take something like that back
It’s just a common insult from his youth in South Africa
