Now that Elon Musk has bought Twitter - now the Pit edition (Part 2)

Are you asking if he really did make that accusation? Yes.

Multiple news outlets are reporting it right now.

I need 50kg popcorn, stat.

ETA: CNN, The Hill, and Fox are all covering the feud, but I didn’t see this gem on any of them.

Hell yeah.

DOGE has access to a lot of info that seems unrelated to cutting waste.

Please let it be true. It can be my birthday AND my Christmas present.

[Martin Blank] They all have husbands and wives and children and houses and dogs, and, you know, they’ve all made themselves a part of something and they can talk about what they do. What am I gonna say? “I killed the president with a fork. How’ve you been?”

My favorite part of this is that both Trump and Musk think attacking the other will win them new fans.

Musk: “Everyone hates Trump, so if I turn against him, the left will start liking me again!” And vice versa.

Good luck with that, idiots.

It might be true (wouldn’t shock me given Trump’s history) but I’m pretty sure this is just classic Elon trolling. He’s no different than some kid on the playground telling another kid that his mom is sleeping with all of the teachers at the school. I doubt Elon actually has anything.

Trump fumes at Elon, threats to cancel all his government contracts:

Popcorn eating Micheal Jackson gif in response to allegations of TFG being in the Epstein files by Elmo. There are… layers to that.

Musk says SpaceX will decommission Dragon spacecraft after Trump threat

Oh, is that going to be the excuse for why he hasn’t gotten to Mars yet? “We’d have gotten there by now except for this petty feud I’m having!”

SpaceX can be compelled to licence the design to another manufacturer. If not just compelled to build the things regardless.

Musk may finally have run into someone he can’t outspend, outlawyer or effectively bully. Trump has Musk by his IVF loving balls.

It’s a seven layer TACO.

I’m thinking more Willy Wonka watching Augustus Gloop get sucked up into the pipe.

The suspense is terrible, I hope it will last.

A FB friend (friend of my girlfriend back in the '80s) just posted:

DUNT-DUNT-DUNNNNN . . . Gee, wouldn’t it be shocking if Elon suddenly OD’d? :thinking: (remember I said it)

What are the odds of an OD vs an ‘accidental’ defenestration or mistakenly ingesting some Polonium?

You know the phrase “he’s saying the quiet part out loud”?

This is the opposite. Cutting the deficit was always the thing Republicans talked about out loud, and they all knew not to vote to make it happen when things were quiet. I’ve been amazed the last few days that some actual Republican politicians have been critical of the big, beautiful bill because it would raise the deficit. It’s like they forgot that it’s been a consistent lie from their party for forty years.

It’s worth noting that they haven’t actually voted against it yet, but I’m amazed the talk has gotten this far.

Could happen to either or both.

You know, I’d love to see Musk taken off the board, so to speak, but I’d be very worried if Trump started assassinating political opponents. It’s not worth it.
