Musk says Americans will have to face 'hardship' if Trump wins
Trump has said he'll put the tech billionaire in charge of government "efficiency" if elected. That won't be good for Americans' wallets.
You're not supposed to root for the hardship. But oh, what am I saying, he obviously doesn't mean himself. He's a special pig, more equal than the rest.
Shuck my big hairy shlong elmo
South Africa wants its loser back
Later on, Musk said that he would “balance the budget immediately,” adding: “Obviously, a lot of people who are taking advantage of government are going to be upset about that. I’ll probably need a lot of security, but it’s got to be done. And if it’s not done, we’ll just go bankrupt.”
Dude is not actually talking of himself?
Besides.. they are telling people straight up Things gonna go Bad.. and they applaud. This Planet develops more and more to a madhouse..
Make America feel hardship again.
It's simple really. We eat the rich.
“We”? There’s no “we” dipshit, not when you can afford to buy and sell rockets while most working class are living on a diet of beans and rice, suffering roommates to make rent, all while working 40-90hrs a week for $7.50-$15 an hour.
Question, I hear things like that on lemmy often. Is there some data source that I can point to if I want to repeat it. I work in tech and honestly don't go out much. I also have kids and live in an old neighborhood that is right next to new expensive ones. So I don't really know anyone personally that is living paycheck to paycheck. And no one would believe me if I talked about it without data and a source.
Return to sender, please.
Says the heir to an emerald mine that has never encountered a single ounce of hardship during his entire waste of time on this planet. He's never even built anything, the fucker just buys his way in and takes credit for others' ideas.
Which, btw, he's an idiot for not just staying quiet and letting people praise him. Imagine for a moment he took the ridiculous wealth he has and kept quietly pointing it at things that help everyone. He would have been beloved and had more influence than he does now. All of it probably costing him less. Alongside many other reasons, this fucking dumb as shit shift he made makes me want to crush him and Trump even more.
Cause like wtf, Musk? You had a clear and easy path to all the power and prestige and recognition you could have ever wanted by helping the world. Instead, you turned into an asshole.
I think he did contribute code to PayPal in the early years but I also remember reading they had to rip it all out it was so bad.
I met Elon in ~1999 when they were pitching us integrating their payment system into our software which was run by a number of the largest firms in the world. Have you ever met a group where one of them is clearly a moron but it is also the best at selling? That's Elon. We passed because our company was run by nerds without an ounce of corporate in it, but I can easily see how Elon would "wow" an executive dipshit that doesn't know shit about the product. Elon is a salesman for the tech enthusiasts, not the tech professionals. He sells what they call dreams and we call vaporware.
I wish Musk would face hardships.
I'd like to see him face 6 months in prison for his election interference. Just a warning shot.
“Most importantly, we have to reduce spending to live within our means,” he said, adding that these efforts will “involve some temporary hardship, but it will ensure long-term prosperity.”
Hey Musk. F******ccckkkk Yooooooooooo
He has $270.3 billion dollars, which at $50K per year would take almost 3.5 million years to earn, and he's preaching to us about cutting back. What a guy.
He took a bonus of like 60 billion dollars just for running a company that would have been successful without him. That’s money that could have been given to employees that actually make a difference in the company. So again I say F**************CCCKKKK YYYYYYOOOOOOOOO*
But we can't face any hardships to save the planet. Gotcha.
Ah yes, "we will make it worse" is definitely the right way to get people to vote for you
This is Farquad:
Some of you... may die... but that's a price I am willing to pay!
Applause
Translation: "Musk, and other rich people, will have to pay a tiny bit more in taxes if Harris wins." Aww poor baby! Fuck that guy!
I am sure Musk will do his best to make life better for me. Oh wait.
At first I was asking myself why he would admit this but then I realized Trump voters read this and think, "finally, they'll hurt the right people" and assume they will not be affected.
i'd rather a few hundred of the wealthiest face hardship for the first time in their lives--first time in generations of their family, for many. we're tired of waiting for the trickle.. it needs to be a downpour.
Ah yes, fiscal responsibility from the fucking idiot who overpayed for Twitter and spends money on useless shit like sinks for fucking jokes.
He doesn't have to tighten his belt, of course.
He's not gonna shitcan SpaceX from NASA funding because they "cost too much" for example.
Javier Milei vibes. Ask an Argentinian how that choice is working out for them so far.
It's amazing that the press constantly covers the comments of this drug addled fascist. Please revoke his citizenship and deport him.
What a great winning message /s

I wonder if he's afraid of backlash from cutting MIC funding.
Fuck You, Elon
I'm grateful to Musk for constantly proving that billionaires are made by luck.
Not just luck. You also need a willingness to fuck people over, again and again. But it could be any lucky asshole.
We know
Dork Maggot
that ain't the flex you want it to be, elon!
There would certainly be less hardship for many if some wealth hoarding billionaires stopped hoarding hundreds of billions of dollars
Go deep throat a cactus Elon.
is there a way to block posts by keyword like I can just block any post containing the word "musk"？
"I don't want to be taxeeeeedddd wahhhh"
Not that this is new, but i can’t believe the MAGAchuds don’t bum-rush this asshole and stomp him into grease.
“You’re all literal ants to meeee!”
*murmurs of not-disagreement*
Musk: "Americans will have to face hardship while I feast on champagne and caviar."
He laughs to himself
