I hope he tries to steal something in front of one of their police
Or show them the video of him on Joe Rogans show.
I appreciate the fervor, democratic leadership is a bunch of spinless cowards, but trying to tear down democrats without a competent actually progressive replacement political organization is handing power directly to Republicans to rule completely unopposed.
Given the reality of political parties in the US, I'd rather spinless corpses filling up space to slow Republicans down rather than letting Republicans take total control in the absence of any marginal opposition.
Unless you're planning on running for office as a competently progressive candidate.
From where I’m standing, it looks a whole hell of a lot like the Democratic establishment players are handing power directly to Republicans to rule completely unopposed, so I’m really not sure what your point is.
If the voters had wanted the Democrats in power, things would look very different to the vast majority of Americans today. Not the progressive utopia some envision, but much better than what we have.
My point is that we need to have an organized political structure to get progressive people elected who will actually promote progressive policies. Saying "Burn Down the Dems" with literally no plan to put up opposition to Republicans is beyond short sighted strategically.
Gonna be brutally honest: at this point, I’m becoming suspicious that the DNC was acting as controlled opposition, in which case it would be absolutely justified and necessary to burn the Democratic Party down. Seriously, how are they so fucking incredible at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory? It genuinely beggars belief how reliably they manage to do that, and then fail to press any advantage when they DO somehow manage to eke out some small sliver of control and agency.

Nobody really believes Musk is being shut out of the administration. Trump and Musk lie constantly. Of course they're lying about this.
People hate Trump too. When will he slam the door on himself?
By slam a door on himself... if I had to choose between him leaving office and him actually slamming a door on himself... obviously it's leaving office, but it's close
People hate nazis in general so it's understandable that people would hate Elon Musk, a nazi.
But when even the Nazis hate him, you know he's even worse than anyone figured.
Let's be real: Trump aligned himself with someone with -44 charisma and then made him the "chainsaw guy" on purpose, he was a hatchet man, meant to cut shit back and take the heat. I think Elon thought he was doing the using, but ultimately like so many others he was part of Trump's web of bullshittery, already many seasons in progress when Elon decided to get super political. Now I am guessing he's regretting it almost as much as we are, but for very different reasons.
Depends on how much data his DogE goons scooped up.
People hate nazis in general
If only. Entirely too many scratched-liberals in the NATO block. And that goes straight back to its founding.
Simply not talking about him is not "slamming the door"...
They've simply learned that hyping Elonazi was invoking too much damage to his companies.
So now the Department of Gratifying Elonazi (DOGE) minions will more quietly work behind the scenes and we will learn much less about the damage they're doing and when they're doing it.
This is much worse.
Now slam the door on Trump for the very same reason. "People hate him."
lol, couldn’t even keep the dumbest people on earth on board. starting to smell popcorn.
American Journal Editor Releasing a Headline That Does Not Contain the Word "Slam"
Difficulty: IMPOSSIBLE
People hate trump too. That doesn't seem to have any effect though.
YES we hate him ....... oh wait....They mean Musk...hate Musk!? Yeah him too
Leon Hitler is still lurking in the background. F-him.
Don't worry, we're not going to forget
- The American people, 2016
Yeah. That's fair.
Until he's no longer a billionaire he's a threat to democracy. Don't let up.
We hate you too, asshole!
Too late,fuckers! We all still know you all should go eat a bag of shit!
We hate you too, Trump, can you slam the door on yourself too? And don't let it hit you on the ass on your way out, it's bad enough we're going to have to clean the spray tan off it.
Trump & Elon Musk (Elmo). The most hated pair of idiots in the world. And there is NO stopping them from falling! Their oppression will end!q
Best we keep reminding them of it.
Newsflash: everyone outside Donnie Dumbass world hates fElon, too.
That's because Elon is a little bitch.
So is Trump, but Trump hurts the brown people and gay people and trans people and the libs so they have to keep liking him.
I assume a lot of Elons influence was based on Teala stock payments to influential politicians. When the stock price drops this charade ends.
Cool, they should kill each other.
