But wearing masks that don/t work and keeping an arbitrary 6 feet between people isn't. This kind of stupid is why you guys lost the last election.

It's just a matter of time before you see we've all lost & while it's Trump & Elon that are doing the real laughing. Do you have an emoji for that?

I'm glad Trump and Musk are upsetting you. That means they are doing what people voted for.

amazes me to see people cry over an audit of government. When Clinton ran on it, ok good, Trump, bad. Congratulations on taking the 20% side of every 80/20 issue. What are the democrats at now, 21% approval? Has it ever dipped into the teens in the history of the country? You're heading there.

Whey are you glad? Is that part of the cult mentality you are trying to project?

can you honestly say with a straight face, that either of those guys need money? How many Presidents were already billionaires before they ever held office? How many left office with a net worth less than when they entered office? Elon is already the richest man on the books. It would be a job to even try and spend all his money in a lifetime. He owned Paypal, he doesn't need SS numbers. I wouldn't have thought his crazy companies would even make money, ie. space exploration, sub terranean drilling, human implant chips, etc., but here we are.

I always hear that argument about how rich Elon is and how he doesn't need the money? Seriously? With rich people that's all they think about...is how to make even more money and also to have more power. The more money you have, the more leverage and power you have as a whole.

it doesn't seem to be working out in that direction for him, if that was his plan.

Doesn't sound like this is the case with Elon.
You gotta look at his history. He was prepared to blow at least half his wealth back in the day just to raise hype for Mars in order to encourage the gubment's increasing NASA's funding 'cause he'd dreamed for a long time about our colonising the planet as a survival-insurance policy.
Heck, he doesn't even believe in patents except in cases where R&D money needs to be recouped first before making IP public-domain. He says, "Patents are for pussies".
It's obvious the guy's driven by passion. A definite outlier in the realm of billionaires.
That's not to say that I disagree with your statement; I reckon it'd apply in 99%+ of cases.

I don't vote but all the tariffs and stuff are great news. You're dismay doesn't matter to me or most Americans anymore. You're a political dinosaur.

He says that patents discourage innovation and are for those who're slow-to-create and want to rest on their laurels.

Sounds like your average lefty communist. The only thing that encourages innovation is personal reward/financial gain, or someone's personal satisfaction.

Well then he can't win can he?
He's accused of being a greedy billionaire and a "selfless" commie at the same time.

Beginning to wonder how many alts Canada has. 
The only people who complain about Trump on this forum are Charvel and Canadian(s).
So strange.

At the same time a bunch of Canadians support Trump, like JackTheBear and Krull.
Speaking of whom, Krull reappeared recently, briefly, but I haven't seen much of him this past year or two.
Hope he's OK.

I'm so done with you leftists. Your crap policies have only made it worse for working class Americans... over decades. There is nothing you can point to that was a win. I can admit that I was wrong voting for Democrats for the last 35 years., wrongitty wrong wrong.

Elon didn't realize that people are revolting against his companies because of his policies...and who elected Elon anyway?

Tariffs are tax on the American people no matter who you voted for...how is that great news? You may be oblivious to this but sooner or later you might catch on.
