    This. POTUS and VP are the only offices I believe requiring birth as a natural born citizen. Everything else is open. But I highly doubt he'd be interested, there's a lot of transparency and disclosure in relation to that and he'd probably have to stop spending all his time shitposting on Twitter.

    To quote everyone's favourite billionaire.
    Do you know how much power I'd have to give up to be President?
    -Lex Luthor
    Why is Elon inserting himself in the hostage situation?
    Same reason he inserted himself when a Thai children's soccer team got stuck in a flooded cave before calling one of the divers who rescued them a pedo. Because his ego is to big for his head.

    Judging from that other billionaire who got elected, if anything he'd spend more time complaining and shitposting on Twitter.

    The Trump precedent proves otherwise.

    Giving he's an egomaniac, I'd be on governor, since I doubt someone with that small of a dick would be satisfied with being 1 of 100+

    Now then. What state? No clue.

    The states that seem to align with him are the ones with a history of whining about carpetbaggers.

    True, though he's pretty darned popular with some Republicans in Texas like Ken Paxton, who has lodged I believe at least two different lawsuits trying to get senpai's attention. And we do know he's been cultivating his connections with Republican politicians, last time he went to DC he booked a bunch of meetings with Republican legislators, and only Republican legislators. His encounter with Minority Leader Jeffries ended up being a chance encounter.

    2: Yeah, nobody's dumb enough to let the Fox Bear inside the Chicken Coop.

    4: See 2. A decade or two hasn't made them any more stupid than they were before.
    5: Russia (among others), for reasons that the intervening years and Russian land grabs have obviously made abundantly clear.

    I realize twitter addicts will believe this, but no, children are not getting gender change surgeries. That's just a flat lie. Elon has a trans kid that he's estranged from and his acquisition and subsequent anti-trans hatred bent on twitter is very clearly a mid life crisis reaction to this event that apparently scarred his ego as a sperm donor.

    He honestly didn't want to build electric cars.
    He wanted to ruin the California High Speed Rail initiative and make money.

    I myself bought into his myth of the "good billionaire"

    It would be funny watching him spiral further into the conspiracy theory rabbit hole if it wasn't so painfully boring and predictable and also if it didn't actually have real-world consequences thanks to how he chooses to operate his social media platform, for example.

    Seriously though, when the fuck is there going to be a security review for this clearly increasingly unhinged dude who owns companies contracting with the US government and Pentagon?

    Also out of all the conspiracy theories, pizzagate?

    Like I am sure some conspiracy nut went in there with a gun and demanded to see the basement of pizza comet only to find out there is no basement...

    Aaaand he is back! Posting pizzagate theories is the chef's kiss. Thank you Elmo.

    My goodness why can't people see who this person is. Why do people who overvalue Tesla at least by a eff ton, purely on the head person being a genius. Well, now it's maybe he is so rich that he will just stream roll his way to success. As people know he has a big say in how electric cars may go at least with charging stations. SpaceX and Starlink, one in the same I guess, has value but also Elmo wields this power over our government. All these like most rich idiots he has more say and control of the government, yet gubberment baad!

    What in his recent behavior has given you the indication that he wouldn't believe Pizzagate stupidity? Dude has gone full down the rabbit hole of right wing Twitter and is simping in the comments of every alt-right, misinformation pedaling weirdo because they're his most consistent positive feedback loop when his self-proscribed microdose of ketamine wears off and he starts feeling depressed again.

    Hey, I will not have you besmirch Hank Scorpio's name like that.
    His methods may be a little unorthodox but he is a model employer who cares for his workers.

    Scorpio gave Homer the Broncos because he's a good leader and cares about his employees
    Musk gives his employees horses because he's a sexual predator.

    They are not the same.

    I did say a stupid one!
    A smart Hank Scorpio would care about his workers! A stupid one wouldn't!

    Elon Musk would build a super weapon and extort world leaders if he had the competence for it.
    He would call it the Xeapon.

    Anyhow, Elon meeting people of the Israeli government seems really weird.
    He's desperate for attention and desperate to save his reputation from his own actions. That's why.

    "Lie" is too soft of a word, really. It's a smear against the kids in question, and against any parent who'd support said kids rather than kicking them out or putting them in conversion therapy. (And yet: the same people who spread that nonsense claim to stand for "parents' rights.")

    Elon has a trans kid that he's estranged from and his acquisition and subsequent anti-trans hatred bent on twitter is very clearly a mid life crisis reaction to this event that apparently scarred his ego as a sperm donor.
    I really don't blame Jenna for disowning him. The crap he's spouting about her is outrageous and pathetic.
