Gotta cut the budget of other departments so we can funnel that money to Tesla.

That didn’t read as if he still isn’t being “considered” just that they aren’t showing the company name on the list of “potential” vendors…

Well Elmo musk can’t sell his Tesla anymore now that people have realized they’re shit and well, you know, the Nazi thing, so now that he is the dictator or the US, how better to give himself some money by telling the government to buy Tesla’s?

There’s NOTHING wrong with Elon being President and Elon getting HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF TAXPAYER DOLLARS in MORE Federal Contracts? The REAL Corruption would be if President Elon’s SON made money overseas!

Trump is a disaster, but Democrats using that to somehow whitewash what does appear to be clear corruption on the part of Democrats is pathetic and, frankly, not an adequate response to the moment.
Also, the Democratic party putting a thumb on the primary scale to favor a candidate with baggage like that borders on criminal negligence. Fuck the Democrats for getting us here.
