    Honestly I believe it’s theater. If trump was serious he already would have cancelled them. And Elon with his “breaking news” that Trump is on the epstien list? We already knew, there’s multiple pics and vids of it. That’s like “BREAKING NEWS THE SKY IS BLUE” sort of bullshit.

    They’re trying to distract us and make it look like Elon is leaving, all while he is still very much behind the curtain.

    Maybe I’m wrong, but I don’t trust them one bit.

      I couldn’t say if you’re right or wrong about their angle, only that you’re right not to trust either of those clowns.

        Like they say, actions speak louder than words. You can’t trust their words, only their actions. Both of them are known for stabbing others in the back and doing the exact opposite of what they say. And right now all I see is a lot of hot air and no action.

        The “assassination” attempts, the promise of not axing medicare, Bagdad Barbie, the media control, Musk’s “free speech tirades,” Doge, and his complaints of bots while actively using bots, etc… everything they do is to deceive and misdirect.

        And suddenly everyone is talking about their little hissy fits, and less about the “Big Bullshit Bill” they’re trying to cram into law.

      I think scapegoating musk was always the plan, not sure if he knew that or not though.

      At the very least he’s trying to distance himself from the admin to try and save his companies image.

      Nah, on a personal level they’re both dead serious. This is exactly the messy divorce we’ve been predicting since day 0.

      Do they follow through though, that’s an entirely different question. I guess they’ll screech into the void some more, listen what comes back, then decide what to do.
