anyone who thought Trump wouldnt dump elmo after he was no longer useful was just deluded, what's going on is nothing more than a dick measuring contest between two toddlers, each screaming to mommy and public that the other is bad.Not me. Musk was a short engagement after which he returned to industry.
See, earlier on people were saying how Musk was getting unfair advantage by being so close to the President. That Trump was what ? owned by Musk. Bought and paid for they said.
Where are those people today? Looking pretty stupid right now aren't they
The Trumps & Elon tweets thread (Had to make this since it's never ending)
- Thread starter 6pack
- Start date
The only reason I wanted DTrump to win, really wanted to see what 'murica is actually about (I knew). Want this show to go on forever till bare minimum sense of reality prevails in 'murican psyche.

It works both ways. Both help each other. That's a given.
But when there is a falling out like this then it means someone didn't get all that was agreed to. Isn’t it. A miscommunication somewhere. Pushing Trump beyond a point will be counter productive. Every leader who has to deal with Trump knows this.
It also creates future uncertainty for no apparent reason as a direct result.
Broken. Not how I left it.
It's there already with Trump’s win. A lot of unnecessary nonsense will go.
People are looking for a specific set of things to get done. He says he can do it.
The new bill includes a seconday tariff on countries buying Russian energy. So this will impact us. War clown and Russia hater Lindsay Graham who is behind this wants a 500% tariff on any country that buys Russian oil or gas.

Remains to be seen if it makes it inchanges or not without more modifications.
If it does oil orices will go up as there will be an artificial shortage created.
It's not possible to sanction Russian energy. Bidens people didnt get it and then had to accept it. Same will happen here.

He couldn't have got this done even under Biden. And Trump doesn't view Russia as an enemy at all. So not a chance in hell it will pass.

This isn't the first time with Trump. Back in 2017 he wanted us to stop buying from Iran. We were 15% dependent on Iranian imports.
Fine, find us alternatives to make up the difference. They did. Both Saudis & Iraqi production was increased and the Americans took care of the rest. Took three sources to make up the difference.
Iranians were very upset with us. We haven't bought any oil from them since Trump's first term.
If he want us off Russian oil. Same applies. Find us alternative sources. And repeat that for everyone who buys from Russia.
Unlike Iran that made up 3% of the World's supply, Russia accounts for 12%. Reductions are possible. Stopping entirely is not.

Asking for alternative supplies is doing that.
Tell me who has defied the US when it came to Iran? Nobody
Not even China. At least not officially. But out on the high seas things can happen but this is no alternative. They just increased their imports from Russia.
And a propos. Ever heard of CAATSA? That's the same thing but with Russian weapons or any other country they don't like. Not a bill but an act in force.
Guess what. We bought the S400?
What sanctions did the US apply on India as result?

This is the part I was expecting fireworks. Nothing showed with the German chancellor
Trump's way of getting back at Putin? He plays both sides this way
He's not weak. But the opposition would like you to believe that.

But he is in a weaker position than earlier, with that nasty spat with Elon. Weak as not being in that seat, but as how things are conducted sitting in that seat. Elon don't hold the cards in this for sure, but he can stymie the image of already faded image of Trump.

Trump is weaker because of the spat with Elon?
Common sense should have told you the opposite.
Oh no wonder. Shit sources is why you are always so confused.
^Don't waste your time with these idiots. Stupid opposition source. The paper they come from is right wing but the commentary is left liberal BS.
That would go to a point where the USD will be ditched in favour of local settlement currencies . That would be a huge risk for America. Venezuela and some African countries will increase their supplies to match demand but prices would be less than stable and barter system would take over .
Another point is those countries buying Russian oil and gas are taxed then EU would be maximum hit . Refining Russian oil and exporting does not necessarily mean we consume . End of the day we have to be patriotic and pay up more taxes so that Ambani bhai can make windfall gains .
It is said that important information is being spoon fed to him through flow charts, etc. Let's see how it goes.
