What does Trump need from Elon?  Nothing.   He needed his money and whatever else to win the election.  He can't run again.  He doesn't care if Repbulicans win so he doesn't care of Musk supports them.

Elon needs the US Government because he's a major contractor in defense and space and all of that.  There's also Tesla to consider.  But to what degree does Trump help with that?  I don't know the answer.

 

and following up on this more.... the US government also needs Musk b/c he and his companies are contractors... but does Trump care?

He talks about it only when he is being threatened by something, or when he wants to exploit its merchandising value.

And says the democrats tried to kill him....twice.

It was shocking to hear that Tesla lost 14% in one day yesterday. People are probably totally freaking out. I say...let them eat cake. 😅😅

People were predicting a messy divorce from these 2 clowns. Their "bromance" lasted longer than I thought;

When people die they won't need cars.

I have to admit that it was a slick move on Trump's part giving a man who is crazy and on drugs access to all the personal data in the country and letting him decide the entire government budget.

An illegal immigrant!! Everything his cult members were voting to deport!! The guy was here in a student visa when he illegally started his businesses. Deport him and take everything away.  😅😅

He better be careful what he implicates himself in. Trump has immunity, Musk doesn't.

He’s still the richest man in the world.   There is nothing he can’t use that leverage to get himself out of.

Assuming it holds up in court, but hopefully it doesn't, will Trump's Muslim ban prevent these countries participating in the Olympics in LA? What a ****ing embarrassment that would be. It would be like when the Nazi regime hosted the Olympics in the 1930s. That was a disgrace and so to would this be with our own fascist regime.

Some amusing content here from semi-funny Dana Milbank

Opinion | Trump’s mistakes are multiplying only five months into his second term - The Washington Post

Quote

There is no sanctuary from Trump administration buffoonery.

On May 29, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem released a “comprehensive list of sanctuary jurisdictions.” She was “exposing these sanctuary politicians” because they are “endangering Americans and our law enforcement in order to protect violent criminal illegal aliens.”

 

But it immediately became clear that the list of more than 500 states, counties and cities was riddled with errors: misspellings, cities and counties mistaken for each other, and places that don’t exist. Cincinnati became “Cincinnatti,” Campbell County (Kentucky) became “Cambell” County, Greeley County (Nebraska) became “Greenley” County, Takoma Park (Maryland) became “Tacoma” Park, while “Martinsville County” (Virginia) was invented. And so on.

 

 

Worse, scores of the “sanctuary politicians” she called out turned out to be leaders of MAGA counties and towns with no sanctuary policies on their books. Complaints poured in from Trump allies across the country. “You don’t have that many mistakes on such an important federal document,” said Pat Burns, the Trump-backing mayor of the right-wing stronghold of Huntington Beach, California, mislabeled as a sanctuary city. He told the Associated Press that “somebody’s got to answer” for this “negligent” behavior.

I'm sure there will be exceptions for athletes but I wouldn't trust it. I hope a lot of countries boycott. Trump will then blame California.

Tesla has been that low recently and rebounded. Tesla stock has been untethered from the outlook for Tesla the company for a long time. It's a pure trade play stock now, more like bitcoin.

You would think he needs nothing, but Trump looks up to people who are richer and/or more powerful than he is.

I know, who could be more powerful than the president of the United States? Well, who does Trump believe is more powerful than he?

Bondi is speaking now.  Come on press, ask her why she's hiding the Epstein files?

What he needs more than anything is constant adulation and that could be the one thing that saves us...if it doesn't destroy us.

Finally. Of course they had to find something to change him with now. But at least he will be getting due process.

I was reliably told by various members of Trump's administration (including Trump himself, Vance, his Press Secretary, etc) that it was he was never leaving El Salvador.

Not sure I'd call it "finding something".  Seems that it's something that should have been dealt with when he was pulled over in Tennessee with a full sized SUV packed full of migrants.   They also say they have the dude who hired Garcia to smuggle people so it seems on the surface that they have a strong case.
