Musk Petition Signers Still Waiting for $47 Payments
Musk Petition Signers Still Waiting for $47 Payments
Elon Musk offered swing-state voters $47 for getting others to sign a petition, but they say the payments haven't come through
In early October, some signatories received hand deliveries of $47 in cash, posing for photo-ops to tout the deal. Most, though, are expecting checks in the mail, and some have grown impatient. One issue, to judge by replies to Musk’s posts on X (formerly Twitter), is that voters have misread the terms of the America PAC offer, and think that just signing the petition will earn them money. “WHERE’S MY $47? I SIGNED ALREADY,” one Donald Trump supporter replied to Musk on Sunday. “I signed up and didn’t get $47,” another X user attempted to inform Musk earlier this month, appending a skull emoji to his message. And even those who apparently understood the referral system have complained of not receiving payments. “I signed up three people but didn’t get the $47,” another person replied to Musk this week, adding, “still glad I did it but wondering if that was a scam.”
You can’t scam Elmo out of $47 if he’s already scamming you.
The Epstein island bros never pay their debts. Shout out to Ken Griffin— the market maker/money propping up these fucking assholes.
Hopefully he never pays, and those folks get jaded and stay home instead of voting for trump.
From the article
A Trump voter in Pennsylvania tells Rolling Stone that he had his girlfriend sign the petition and list him as a referrer. “If it were anyone other than Elon Musk doing this I wouldn’t trust it,” he says. But he is frustrated at receiving no confirmation message or further communication from the Super PAC since then. “Part of me thinks it’s B.S. just to rally up votes,” he admits, in which case he plans to “have a field day slandering [Musk], and Trump might just lose my vote.”
They'll be mad at Elon, not Trump. But one can hope.
Progress is still progress.
Same cloth

I'm absolutely shocked that the guy who skipped out on paying his employees' severance pay, the rent for his facilities and office spaces, and various vendors and other companies is also not paying out the bribe money he offered people... Shocked I tell you... Who could have possibly forseen this?
The people holding the giant cardboard million dollar checks aren't getting paid either. Once the election is over the PAC will be dissolved and Musk will fuck off back to Texas and get a friendly judge to squash the inevitable lawsuits.
But all those million dollar winners might want to quietly fuck off too. After they also broke the law and can be prosecuted.
Yeah, unfortunately there's almost no chance that he sees any real consequences over this. A different justice system for him vs the rest of us.
You know... I hope this backfires and pisses off enough idiots they huff and puff away from actually voting.
The $47 payments are two years away.

Elon innovating corporate finance by scrapping net30 payment terms and switching to net730
It's just an homage to Trump, who is famous for not paying bills!
This guy is a national security risk. Plus, he skips around like a dipshit.
The CyberCuck didn’t become a billionaire by handing out money, you rubes. He will never pay up.
wtf the lying grifter con artist man didn't pay me?!
elon wouldn't scam me!
I am just shocked. SHOCKED! Well. Not that shocked.
And he’ll do the same in his next bit lol if he doesn’t actually pay, no laws broken
Wondering if this is some kind of loophole - by a technicality, he's not guilty of vote buying if he doesn't actually pay up?

I'm still waiting on my 600 bucks from Biden.
Wait......context?
It's way more than that.
Sadly, once you've dropped $27B on genocide, there's just not a lot left to go around.
God, you people are just as bad as the pro-lifers. The world is too complicated for you to handle a function with more than one variable so you pick one to go all in on one like a horse with blinders.
This is why lemmy world users just suck
