Summary
Republicans’ efforts to portray Elon Musk as a MAGA martyr are failing, as his victim narrative struggles to resonate with conservative audiences.
Musk’s controversial statements and perceived elitism, including his complaints of being targeted by Democrats, have alienated even right-wing supporters.
Protests and vandalism against Tesla have damaged the brand, and Musk’s ties to Trump have hurt the Trump’s approval ratings, especially on economic issues.
Attempts to rally sympathy for Musk, including his emotional Fox News appearance, have largely backfired.
And the fucker revels being a villain. CPAC appearance on stage with a chainsaw, telling Bob Iger to go fuck himself, Nazi salutes, the list goes on… His brain is obviously mush, but I kinda wonder how he thought this was going to play out for his companies any other way than it has.
“DARK GOTHIC MAGA”
He thought he was going to be second in command in Trump’s cult, and every MAGAt would be buying Teslas and using Starlink for Internet. He thinks he’s a Hero and he thinks everyone will support whatever he does just because he’s the one doing it.
He didn’t read the fine print before he aligned himself with Trump and now he’s paying the price & crying about it which is having the effect of making him look weak & stupid, when he thought it would make him a martyr.
This is what I don’t understand: did felon truly believe that average magas (so not fascists tech bros and nepo babies) are going to give up gas cars and buy EVs instead?
How are they going to lord it over cyclists if they can’t even spew out black emissions as they speed by?
God that looked as dumb as a door knob, wouldn’t even fit for WWE show
