Been saying this for a couple of years. It would be child's play to push this man into total narcissistic collapse.

Imagine if pop stars, actors, world leaders, media personalities, tech bro billionaires, all hit him at once, anyone who has the ear of millions. Just today he's had a mini meltdown over Tay Tay (from months ago) and Bruce Springsteen.

World leaders would be especially effective as he considers himself a peer. Those people baiting him up would take him back to his school days where the rich-kid in-crowd bullied him. Gods, just imagine if someone like Macron came out and said, (imagine French accent) "He thinks he is a leader, part of our club. He is only a small child with a cult and will never belong among serious leaders. His wife will not touch him, but we can she see how she make eyes, no? In front of the old cuckold!" And then have a dozen others come out and say the same.

Can you imagine the total hissing, spitting, pissing frenzy that would follow? Trump would be unable to do anything but scream, his mind unable to even attempt to govern. Shut him down hard enough and the Cabinet would be forced to pull the 25th Amendment on him.

I should lead this thing.

that was the whole point of keeping the "Trump is Elon's bitch gig" going. wonder why that stopped

Because Elon rage quit the "let's destroy the government and funnel more cash to me" game.

Elon didn't go anywhere. Him leaving was theater in the hopes that his stocks would stop cratering.

DOGE seems to have slowed way down. I actually think Musk's involvement has waned a lot, he has become persona non grata in cabinet meetings and day-to-day WH activities.

The author of project 2025 is in charge I think I read...

It's more like bad comedy.

At some point in the show Gallagher runs out of watermelons to smash and has to tell some jokes.

He came down from that ket high and finally noticed that the fiction propping up his imagined wealth was falling apart.

[–] gamer@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago

He didn't quit, he just stepped out of the spotlight. It needs to be poibted back at him to bring that Tesla stock price down again (although that's probably unnecessary woth their sales collapse since even the most brain rotted investors will sell once bankruptcy hits)

Now that would be wonderful to witness.

( Hey mate, I think you should have a look at that sentence about his wife, I think auto correct got you, cheers. )
