I know that it will not matter and that Musk made more money off of his money from the
time he sipped his more coffee and took his AM b.m. than I will make in 10 years but he
should be treated as pariah if he gives that criminal a platform just to be a dick.
I think Musk just let Tucker Carlson and other right wing hate talkers back onto Twitter
after he bought it.

(866 posts)My son points out that my husband worked on promoting electric cars since he worked at the DOE under Carter in the 1970s (Reagan ended his entire agency in his inaugural address). Musk made electric cars popular. Not sure Trump will be anything but a pain in the ass to Republicans and Democrats on Twitter. Trump no longer has the power. Even Obamas words are no longer magic. BTW, my son is waiting on his Ford F 150 lightening because he wouldnt buy a Tesla because he doesnt trust Musk, but he credits Musk for Ford introducting electric cars.

I'm not a tweeter nor will never become one. Alas, I will see where this is heading but from previous bullshit talk, especially about "freedom" and "freedom of speech" coming from GQP, I will not hold my breathe.
