I’m sure what passes for his brain can’t process the idea that an oil and gas state can also be in bed with an EV manufacturer (though to be fair, one who embodies the states’ principles with unsafe working conditions and general mistreatment of employees).
That was my first thought. Now that Musk and his favorite little wannabe dictator seem to be at odds over one of Musk’s primary businesses, what will his reaction be? (Probably an extra dose of ketamine tonight to paper over that irritating a little bit of cognitive dissonance in his brain.)
This here is a fun story. Apparently, Dan Snyder, who owned an NFL franchise that plays in DC, helped finance a hagiogra-pic about Individual-ONE. When it aired at Cannes, it received an 8-minute standing ovation.
Of course you get that, if it was well received at the international film festival, it could not possibly have been as hagiographical as would have been intended. In fact, it was particularly honest.
Variety reports that the film portrays (Individual-ONE) as “an ethically compromised philanderer who stiffs contractors and cuts deals with the mob to get his buildings completed.”
Naturally, Snyder is livid, as is the subject of the film. They are trying to prevent the film from being distributed. You can name your platform “Truth”, but when actual truth rears its ugly head, you just better CYA before it gets bitten.
According to the show’s co-producer Bill Pruitt, when the time came to pick a winner Trump gathered with other judges and producers in a huddle. Carolyn Kepcher, a judge and the chief operating officer of several Trump golf clubs, advocated for Jackson’s victory.
“But will America buy a n***er winning?” Trump said, according to Pruitt. Pruitt said he was not sure exactly what happened next, but that the huddle ended and Rancic was eventually named the winner of season 1.
I’ve been wondering about Keith ‘Wet Wipes’ Schiller, whose job it was to clean Trump whenever Trump soiled himself. You’d think that he could confirm or deny whether that happened. Maybe he’s still under a non-disclosure agreement? (Or maybe he’s a Trump cultist.)
