And that would be because Musk is a threat to the US, he aids Russia in the war against Ukraine and lot more.
@sonhouse saidThat is only true recently. In the beginning Musk used Starlink to help Ukraine after the start of the war. He provided it to Ukraine for free!

Now he is not so generous to Ukraine. Why do you think that is? Maybe he is trying to prevent WW3. Did you ever think of that?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starlink_in_the_Russo-Ukrainian_War
But you want WW3. Anything to defeat Russia, right? So what if they have nukes and threaten to use them. You think it is a bluff because that is the propaganda you have been duped by. You support continued escalation. You will not be happy until nukes are used, then you will pretend Russia is horrible even though the USA used them in war first. Anything to keep demonizing Russia and have the whole of NATO invade all of Russia.
In your crazy world invading Russia cannot possible lead to a nuke explosion.
Russia has them for nothing. They are useless in your insane little world. It is as if they don't exist. Like a child saying to another child "throw this rock at that bees nest, they wont do anything".
@Metal-Brain
He stopped Ukraine from using starlink to help them defeat the barbarian Russians. He is also frothing at the mouth to get Trump in BECAUSE Trump said he would make him in charge of financial issues in the US, what could POSSIBLY go wrong there.
Musk is a fuuking TRAITOR to the US pure and simple, just like YOU COMRADE.
@sonhouse saidBarbarian Russians?

When Our government invaded part of Syria did you call yourself a barbarian?
Do you have to resort to Trump style name calling to demonize Russia? Are they psychopath Russians too? Bloodthirsty Russians?
How many other names do you have with the intent to dehumanize the Russians so killing them is easier on your conscience? I think expanding NATO to Russia's doorstep was barbaric. When the USA put nukes in Turkey Russia didn't like that and Turkey is nowhere near as close as Ukraine.
Why did JFK complain when Russia put nukes in Cuba in response to the USA putting nukes in Turkey? Because nobody puts up with that crap. NOBODY!
Do you need reminding that Reagan hated socialism being in Nicaragua and fought them because he claimed they were going to expand up through Mexico and attack the USA?
The USA knew Russia would not tolerate Ukraine becoming a NATO nation. That is why the USA wanted Russia to believe that was the intention, but that was not the intention and the USA did everything to fool Russia into thinking that was the goal. All to get Russia to invade Ukraine. That is what the US government wanted. They did everything they could to goad Russia into invading Ukraine.
The USA wanted Russia to invade Ukraine after our government armed them with the expectation Russia would invade. Now imagine Russia pulling off a coup in Mexico. If that happened the our government would invade Mexico for certain. Reagan would not even tolerate socialism farther south of Mexico.
@mchill saidBut how can that be, when she has no business experience? Surely you all must wonder, as do I.
Wall Street business leaders, normally a right leaning group are now solidly backing Kamala Harris for President.
Eighty-eight corporate leaders signed a new letter Friday endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris for president. Signers include former 21st Century Fox CEO James Murdoch, Snap chairman Michael Lynton, Yelp boss Jeremy Stoppelman, Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen, ...[text shortened]... ort/88-corporate-leaders-endorse-harris-in-new-letter-including-ceos-of-yelp-box-and-ripple/3541226/
I don’t know what to think. I do know that she has a wish, which is a wish, to give a large tax credit to businesses.
You may have seen KMarauder was saying in another thread that the cost, the money, to cover such excursions, would be taken from other sources.
What sources? Who will have to fund these soon-to-get-rich businessmen? You libs are moving 90 mph. If y’all start paying off credit cards, will I qualify? Only fair, I would think……
@Metal-Brain
Hey, I know you hate to hear complaints about your beloved dictator Putin but he IS a barbarian, killing tens of thousands of civilians like children's hospitals and maternity hospitals quite deliberately and no accidental bombing, TARGETING civilians. That is a barbarian in ANYBODIES language. So kiss my ass COMMIE.

In fact, leadership abilities have nothing to do with economics at all.
Nowhere in management is the requirement: “You are able to count and support AJ’s thesis that bankrupcy is a healthy business model.”
Great leaders inspire, connect and know how to bring the right experts together to get things done.
They seek balance and are able to make decisions based on the intel they have at their disposal.
That’s what’s important in leadership.
@shavixmir saidShe does not have any idea what 'cost down' means, Shav. She cannot sit in an economic meeting and be of any consequence. If she has to make a dicisions as pres, she would be guessing. Guessing. If her lieutenants try to explain it to her, it will go through her inane word-salad processing. Nothing.

She could never understand Trump's reasoning, about tempering the 'power' of China. Libs have a mindset of every country being 'equal'. People like Trump and me are into winning. Outdoing the next guy. Prices could go up on the Chinese goods, that is part of the process. But the positive result of holding China down is worth it, as it will affect our business production and success of our citizens in the companies which will profit from pressure on China. This we dont do tariffs, we may lose jobs overseas. Common sense.
If China hits such a wall, it weakens them, which serves to INCREASE job growth here in the USA. Tell Sonhouse that the stuff they sell in Grainger may be 10% more, but would that not result in more stocking and sales of American-made goods? Made by Americans, more job opportunities for our citizens???????///
Of all people, Sonhouse seems to not worry about the Chinee taking our jobs. A lot of people, like me, try to NEVER buy Chinee goods.
@AverageJoe1
And if Trump tried to negotiate a deal with a foreign ally, all he would do is demand they pay up for NATO as if there is a big NATO bank where every country puts money in and the proceeds doled out to individual countries.
It doesn't work like that but Trump doesn't seem to know are give a rats ass one way or the other, ONLY in causing chaos in our allies, while Putin dances in the street for the weakening position of the US as an ally to Europe.
He doesn't also give a rats ass it was NATO who came to OUR aid on 9-11 and probably didn't even know that in the first place.
It is much more than knowledge of economics that makes a president, keeping our friendship with ally's is one big one Trump fails at miserably.
But of course all you can think about is money money money with no regard to our actual national defense capabilities like the treasonous act of telling an Aussie billionaire a top secret doc saying how close we can get to a Russian sub, no big deal now that trump published that bit of national defense to the world.
We NEVER forgive that kind of thing.
So it looks like you read my bit on Tariff';s and you still think that buys us anything.
All it buys us is an increase in sales taxes. That is IT. Trump would NEVER use that money to help a solitary soul except to use it to try to cut SS and medicare and kill the Affordable Care act. THAT is the sum total of his 'policy'.
@AverageJoe1 saidBusiness is not the same as economics.
She cannot sit in an economic meeting and be of any consequence.
Business deals with profit. Economics concerns broader issues such as wealth, poverty, inflation, etc.
Knowing how to run a business (which Trump doesn't) isn't the same as understanding how to implement economic policies that benefit a country.
@AverageJoe1 saidYou're cherry-picking. Kamala has years of experience dealing with crime as a prosecutor. That's also an important issue you're ignoring.
But how can that be, when she has no business experience?
@sonhouse saidHow do you know what Trump thinks and what he will do?
