Trump downplays talk of Elon Musk’s increasing influence in Republican politics
Musk’s intervention helped derail a crucial government funding bill, but some political observers question how long the alliance can last
Summary
Donald Trump dismissed concerns over Elon Musk’s growing influence in Republican politics, telling supporters Musk cannot be president due to being foreign-born.
Musk recently played a key role in derailing a government funding bill, with critics dubbing him “President Musk.”
His $250M support for Trump’s campaign and appointment to co-lead a new efficiency office have raised conflict-of-interest concerns, particularly over Tesla’s ties to China.
Tensions could emerge over Ukraine, where Musk’s Starlink supports the war effort Trump vows to end.

This is working far better than 'weird' did.
Spread 'em far and wide folks!
I ran across something from a recent Some More News segment that said "weird" was working but it recently came out that some advisor in the Harris campaign (named Geoff Garin) said to stop doing it and pivot to trying to pick up the "moderate gop" vote (whatever tf that means). I guess he was responding to people criticizing him on blue sky by saying basically "you don't know shit".
Well the "moderate GOP" seems to be the target demographic for the DNC, so this statement completely tracks.
It's a bold strategy to go from something that's working to something that has never worked ever.
Bit late, no?
Internal strife for them is damage control for us.
Or it's more damage as Trump flails around angrily like the baby who didn't get it's num nums.
Edit: Seems like some of you didn't get your num nums today either.
He's only planning to do harm anyway. Internal fighting will make that more difficult for him.
Oh I'm not saying don't do it. We want them to be incapable of doing anything effectively, obviously. Plus the entertainment factor of watching Trump get all defensive about it cannot be denied.
But Trump is unstable. I'm convinced if backed into a corner he will attempt do some wildly stupid and dangerous things... just hoping those around him will keep that in check.
