Musk and the other tech-Nazis who invested in Trump want to tear down the government and replace nations with individually owned territories, which each of these corporate criminals will run like a personal fiefdom. Think 13th century feudalism but with internet and cars. A bunch of lords owning everything including the people. "Freedom Cities" that will be wholly owned and operated by your corporate overlords.

So I wonder when Trump and Musk will have their falling out. Or have they really tied their fortunes so closely together that they're stuck with each other?
Even expecting Trump's narcissism and corruption, some of his choices have been rather bizarre...
In Scotland we have a word for people like Elon, cunt
At this point they might as well go back to trying to make a martyr out of the United Healthcare guy who's name I remember about as well as Elon Musk remembers what compassion is.
People cheer at the news that Tesla dealerships are burning. That isn't because they hate Tesla, it's because Musk is an insufferable piece of shit. He solidified his legacy of trash when he went alt-right. He's now the villain and always will be
I own a Tesla and I cheer at the news. While I don't particularly want someone to burn mine before it sells, I wouldn't begrudge whoever did it.
Just make sure you've got insurance, and they'll be doing you a favor.
Get rid of it sooner rather than later, friend. It'll only depreciate more. That or body swap it with something more innocuous like a camry
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"
God that looked as dumb as a door knob, wouldn't even fit for WWE show
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.
Elon Musk and Trump are both traitors to Americs and deserve the maximum sentence for treason.
Elon Musk is a real victim, instead of having "more money than anyone should ever be able to amass or dream of spending in one lifetime", now he only has "more money than anyone should ever be able to amass or dream of spending in one lifetime".
Musk’s ties to Trump have hurt the Trump’s approval ratings
Wow, you have to be a special kind of shitty to actually hurt Trump's image, rather than the other way around.
Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
DOGE wants to kill me, by taking away my insulin. I have good reason to want Musk and Trump to be trapped in a burning cyber truck.
That sounds like self-defense to preserve your life.
Would it be more fun televized like George Carling suggested? Naked upsidedown crucifixion? Or catapulted onto a brick wall?
Drawn and quartered, via Tesla vehicles. It is a quiz show where every time Musk fails to answer, one of the vehicles move several feet. These questions, can be about how many people lost their jobs and lives to Musk, and what rules DOGE broke in order to ruin them. Upon 10 questions failed, all the vehicles run free, and Musk becomes a wishbone.
There might be a bear animatronic as the host to this event.
“They basically want to kill me”. Quote from people discussing their american health plans?
Tbf, I do want to see him dead.
