Elon Musk's raging drug habit exposed by NYT

The Wall Street Journal has had articles on this topic already. The Times is late to the parTy here.

Here's another from the Wall Street Journal last year, going after Elon's drug use

Here's one from 2023 from Wall Street Journal in 2023, detailing the use of shrooms by Musk and others

And here's one from the Wall Street Journal detailing how Musk is mad at the Wall Street Journal for their "Musk uses drugs" articles.

So yeah, the Times is just regurgitating what it read in the Wall Street Journal. Hope their paying subscribers get a refund for this article.

His spurned women are spilling the tea.

He spurns women? By most reports they spurn him first.

What r1 said. The NYT smells blood in the water, and feels it's safe to release this story now. What a bunch of turds.

[quote]It is unclear whether Mr. Musk, 53, was taking drugs when he became a fixture at the White House this year and was handed the power to slash the federal bureaucracy.

Hmmm, doesn't seem unclear to me at all.

Stupid thing to say. Their story contains lots of new reporting.

A story is ready when it’s ready. You have to have it properly sourced.

Is Fetal Ketamine Syndrome a thing?

He seems so desperate. I'm an important little boy aren't I Mommie...Mommie???

I'm shocked, shocked.

So Elmo's a big fucking K junkie, and the Donald is an Adderall addict.

It's all so very Hitler/Dr. Morell.

Fascists love their drugs.

"Romantic" relationship. ROFLMAO

What a sick world. A massive druggies like Musk gets to gut the federal government. Are all the drugs he takes legal or can he be prosecuted for any of this behavior (this is just a fantasy)?

It’d be a shame if he ODd…

The damage ketamine does to the bladder can be horrific and it sounds like he has begun to experience them. You experience constant bladder pain and the bladder may require removal.

What does one do without a bladder?

And he left the government a complete mess

No one cares, OP.

Don’t we all know he’s on drugs?

No wonder he and RFK Jr got along so well

“ No one cares, OP.”

The Times cares. Years after the Wall Street Journal cared enough to run a series of articles about it.

Trump leaked this.

Hooray for the WSJ. What a bunch of quality humans.

The Murdochs were on this before the Sulzbergers. Make of that what you will.

The best detail from the article is that all the drugs have given him "bladder issues."

I live to watch this cretin's inevitable downfall. I hope it's public and brutal.

HA! Another thing Trumpy and Elon have in common...Depends!

That stupid black coat he was wearing the whole time he was destroying the federal workforce? He should be sent to the lowest levels of hell for that. He’s by FAR the worst dressed broligarch. His belts are shit too.

What kind of psychopath do you have to be to regularly do mushrooms and ecstasy and still have no empathy?

[quote] What does one do without a bladder?

Colostomy bag.

Yeah, R32, if psychedelics actually uniformly improved people, the boomers would have created a utopia instead of Trumpworld.

So Musk and Trump are both sitting around in filled diapers. That tracks.

R19. This is what one does without a bladder.

High as a fucking kite.

"Character Limit: How Elon Musk Destroyed Twitter," by Kate Conger and Ryan Mac, is an almost 500-page examination of what a train wreck he is, for the rubberneckers among us.

I kept wondering when the shoe was going to drop for him, because this has been the biggest open secret for months.

He's appearing at a press conference with Trump today so perhaps someone will ask him some questions about it? I'm not holding my breath.

[quote] I'm not holding my breath.

You would if you were there with him and Trump.

I don’t judge him for being a druggist but I do judge him for being a piece of shit. If I were really rich I’d probably be high a lot of the time too but I wouldn’t be out there trying to destroy peoples lives. I’d just enjoy it

He’s deleted any lawsuits against him, collected whatever intel and personal information he needed, and now has backdoor channels to all federal networks. He’s accompanied what he needed to do. DOGE was a big smokescreen for all this. He and Dump are probably going to extol the virtues of DOGE and Elmo’s hard work and dedication towards saving American taxpayers trillions of dollars (without being able to show it), and Dump will give Elmo the golden handshake as Elmo’s attention is needed at his businesses, which the loony woke left is trying to destroy.

[quote] I don’t judge him for being a druggist

Oh, [italic]dear.[/italic]

Accomplished, not accompanied ^^

r43: There was absolutely no need to correct your typos since you ended your post with:

[quote]which the loony woke left is trying to destroy

The DL totally understands who you are.

Okay, R46, who am I. And maybe check my posting history before you make your allegations.

FWIW

Junkie with a box o' drugs

R36 Holy mother of God, I hate the internet...

[quote]A recto sigmoid pouch is when your back passage (rectum) is made into a pouch to collect urine like a bladder. After this surgery you pass urine out with your poo from your rectum.

From the political/ethical (not medical) perspective: I think this is all obfuscation of the real story - Musk came in with his digital wrecking crew, fired people, savaged services (tellingly, disabled agencies and offices that were investigating Musk and his businesses), set up new contracts for Musk, AND set up servers and back doors in all the critical and private data systems of the government. He will continue to have access to these unlimited data sources as he builds his A.I. capacities, and uses these data to control whole economies. The damage has been done, the cost is in our future, and now he retreats as victor under this ack ack distraction of "oh, Musk is a drug addict..."

Elon Musk has a raging drug habit.

Why that's bad news for Joe Biden.

I'm hoping he's a secret Democratic operative, and at some point he will announce that he rigged the election (and other secrets) and Trump will be impeached. All right before he disappears.

R52, hope in one hand piss out your ass in the other. See which fills up first

No R52, he's a straight up Nazi fascist.

I wouldn't mind if Stephen Miller ordered him to be shipped to El Salvador as revenge for stealing his wife.

R24, none of that matters. Americans don’t care.

[quote] The damage ketamine does to the bladder can be horrific and it sounds like he has begun to experience them

90% of gays do K.

R57. Thank you for your intelligent and helpful contribution! We hope you find the time to post more often!

[quote] 90% of gays do K.

I doubt the figure is anywhere near 90%, let alone taking it every day like dipshit Elon.

K, when did I have K?

R46, don't be stupid. That poster was saying*Trump will claim* the left is trying to destroy Elon's businesses.

[quote]Dump will give Elmo the golden handshake as Elmo’s attention is needed at his businesses, which the loony woke left is trying to destroy.

Musk hurt his own business by doing the Nazi cos play. I think the Tesla brand is done everywhere but China. Musk has other ways to make $, robotics, driverless cars etc. Both the left and right are hypocrites but Trump and Musk as the heroes of the evangelicals is hard to beat for hypocrisy

All Gays do K? What? I got sober over 30 years ago so I missed the letters. X. K.

The segment at 11:30 is graphic but gives you a look into what heavy K use does to the bladder.

Not for the squeamish.

The picture of his urine is enough to never make me go near this stuff.

[quote] Colostomy bag.

Urostomy bag.

I was driving home an hour ago from the grocery store, and when I looked in the rear view mirror there was suddenly a black Tesla cybertruck aggressively tailgating me.

[quote] 90% of gays do K.

Maybe it seems like that in your little bubble, but that's just not even close to true.

This has been common knowledge since 2018 when Azealia Banks let loose that Elon was on acid when he tweeted about taking Tesla private at $420 and share.

They have all the power and we have the... gossip.

Great.

The gossip is mightier than the K, r69

Heavy drug use fits in with Melonhead's other, more obvious dysfunctions, like his shocking immaturity and irresponsibility, lack of even the most basic social skills and grandiose narcissism.

Who gave Musk the black eye?

R32 R34 True. If you've believe psychedelics make you enlightened I've got an electric car company to sell you.

I want to know about his eye too!

R73, how do you know? Steve jobss said it was great for him!

Mushrooms are no big deal, there are many studies to show it helps with mental illness.

Mushrooms are legal in a few states...

Maybe he should do more mushrooms and lay off the K and 20 other pills then.

r72, he walked into a door.

He's blaming it on his 5-year-old child. Sure, Jan.

[quote] They have all the power and we have the... gossip.

And this is somehow breaking news to you?

Gossip is infamously a form of weak power, but it can still be very harmful, or people wouldn't try to hide secrets about themselves. this is NOT going to help Musk's companies or his reputation overall.

Wow check out his skin at R80. He is s hard looking 53.

He’s gross looking. No wonder his concubines choose turkey basters.

Elon has BLACK EYE after FIGHT WITH TRUMP

Meanwhile, Trump pardons El Chapo's family. WTF? Odd how this story got no coverage. No outrage left.

Was Brigitte Macron around?

And yet the FBI is investigating that cocaine baggy that turned up in a White House locker last year.

Drug abuse was rampant among the OG Nazis too.

He's definitely 100% sober here.

Who wore the black eye better? Elon or Spuds MacKenzie?

Drugs, a million baby mamas and on the government tit. The ultimate welfare queen.

Even Elon Musk is unable to escape the effects of aging. He must have gotten hair transplants. Why not some fillers so that those wrinkles can smooth over?

Yep, r9, you've put that as succinctly as possible.

He sho is ugly

Maybe we should all fear his kid. Wipes boogers on desks, tell the fat orange guy to get out, punches his dad . . . and he’s a preschooler!

The sacrificial autist goat. Kill the entrepreneurial GOAT.

Pale fat fucker

Did he get punched in the face by a skid row hooker when he asked her to have a baby with him?

[quote] Who gave Musk the black eye?

Bessent do *butch*? I don't buy it. I think it's most likely that he hit Elon in the head with a fondue pot.

I hope this cunt ODs.

I'm more inclined to think that MTG gave him a black eye.

The altercation between Elmo and Miss Bessent was a slap fight.

He got beat up by a fag?

Reduced to brawls now, are we?

Bessent is so...so...

I thought Donald threw a ketchup bottle at him.

[quote]What does one do without a bladder?

Bitch a lot.

Stephen Miller has a bruised nose today. Seriously

Will there be a duel at dawn, r108?

Well, I've been around a few kids and they can be rowdy...esp boys

So wait. Katie Miller left Stephen for Elon? Professionally or personally?

Borh

The lady fair...

^ Steven looks pleased. He probably just ate a baby before that photo was taken.

I can’t believe all these hideous people are involved in a love triangle.

My guess is that he stumbled and fell because he was high on ketamine and that's how he got the black eye. I seriously doubt a four year old is capable of that.

[quote]I seriously doubt a four year old is capable of that.

He was lying as usual. Stephen Miller gave him the black eye.

R100 that made me quite literally laugh out loud!

That's not a big injury. It's possible that a kid did that. If a man did that, would be worse

I'm praying this fucker OD's in a violent and bloody manner.🙏

[bold]E.L.O.N.[/bold]

[bold]E[/bold]pic

[bold]L[/bold]evel

[bold]O[/bold]f

[bold]N[/bold]arcotics

Well Stephen Miller hardly qualifies as a man R119 so that tracks.

Nonsense. He should sue.

My guess is an adult male punched him in the face because he's an annoying wuss with an extremely punchable face.

The WHOLE fucking cabinet is compressed of dopers and drug addicts

Comprised, of course

And drunks R125!

Don't forget rapists and thieves, R125.

They go hand in hand. You’re fucking high as a kite on cocaine then stealing from the american public comes naturally

Elon paraded his son as a prop for a few weeks, and probably hasn’t seen him since.

Glenn Greenwald slapped Elon and left the bruise. Elon was licking Glenn's feet. Admit it, you can see it, can't you?

DUI hires all of them.

I didn't know it was possible, but that press conference yesterday between Musk and Trump was more staged than the "assassination" attempt last summer.

Is Bessent known to have a drug or alcohol problem? I mea na gay man in his shoes sacrificing so much of his professional reputation to throw himself into a pit of unstable vipers?

He's known to be a MAGA republican, R134. A gay one, no less. Logic is not their strong suit.

Kara Swisher puts it well:

Those asking why this was not put before, you are incorrect. It was. This reporter has been writing about this drug issue for two years. She won a Pulitzer for the work on it in 2025 for an extensive investigation in early 2024. It’s not her fault you don’t pay attention.

R85, apparently the Mexican media reported it; the Justice Department didn’t reveal it. They didn’t even tell the President of Mexico before it happened. It’s not a good idea for this bumbling and corrupt administration to get involved in cartel drug wars.

I doubt his kidneys wasn’t the only *Organ* affected.

[quote]A physical altercation between Elon Musk and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent precipitated the Tesla founder's quick ouster from the Trump administration, according to a report.

[quote]The incident was previously reported as a "screaming match" between the two men, but the physical aspect has since been confirmed by The White House.

[quote]The U.K.'s Daily Mail interviewed former Trump adviser Steve Bannon about the DOGE-related scuffle.

[quote]"'Scott Bessent called [Musk] out and said, 'You promised us a trillion dollars (in cuts), and now you're at like $100 billion, and nobody can find anything, what are you doing?' Bannon recounted. "And that's when Elon got physical. It's a sore subject with him. It wasn't an argument, it was a physical confrontation. Elon basically shoved him."

It's like these people are useless fuckwits ... or something?

^ If true, that proves that Miss Bessent is a fool for even believing that Elmo would cut a trillion out of the government.

[quote] The incident was previously reported as a "screaming match" between the two men, but the physical aspect has since been confirmed by The White House.

The black eye?

I think these are separate incidents, the Bessent fight and the black eye.

Gee, this would be a great subject for a book about the Trump campaign in 2025 election! Hey, Jake???????

But Biden's old!!

R143, you're right. The argument between Bessent and Musk was initially reported in April; what is new now are the details about the shoving and pushing. The black eye appeared just recently.

It's possible that attacking Musk may be the way to increase your prestige in the WH. Rubio's stock went up when he fought with Musk. Then Bessent went after Musk. Did a third official, looking for clout, punch Elon in the face? Trump adores watching underlings fight.

The White House is nothing but the Jerry Springer Show now.

Showing up in public, bruised and high as fuck.

He has to be high as fuck to appear in public in those clothes.

He speaks with that horrible accent, stumbles over each word, eyes rolling around in his head like marbles. Strange.

Slap him, Wilona!

Piss him off and ask him about how he got the " eye of color."

Do t forget the gypsies, tramps and thieves!

He is fucked up as hell in that video at r123. Like 90s rave fucked up and then they get hauled off in an ambulance

[quote] Musk's ketamine use reportedly became so chronic last year that he began to experience some of the negative side effects of frequent consumption: namely complaining of issues with his bladder. Studies have shown that frequent recreational ketamine use can lead to a condition known as "ketamine-induced cystitis," or inflammation of the bladder and urinary tract. A report published by the National Institute of Health states that "common KIC-related problems are urinary pain and discomfort, bladder epithelial barrier damage, reduced bladder storage and increased pressure, ureter stenosis, and kidney failure."

That gives new meaning to Musk and " eliminating waste."

Didn't Matthew Perry have a ketamine problem? Just sayin'...

He did

If you work for the federal govt...don't they test you for drugs?

He never got clearance

I believe I read somewhere that he had someone in the government who'd help him evade testing, R158. Which, in itself, is a criminal act.

Indeed it is

A junkie with a black eye, high as a kite. Sure, let's just turn over all government records to him.

It’s insane

it just goes to show, it's all about who you know...you gotta have the connections to get ahead..sucks!

My name is Elon. I live on the second floor...

Piss off Elon at R165! I was here first.

Why does this guy want to involve himself in politics so bad and being evil? He could mind his own business and be high 24/7 and nobody would care

R167 why? Drug-induced megalomania reinforced by having more money than any human in history. His luck has told him he is so special he knows what the whole human race should do, where it's going, if only if it did what he told it to do. Why indeed....

R167, he just completely erased all the investigations and the controls imposed on him and his companies by the U.S. government. Gone. Now, he is going back into the closet because the negative publicity and the blowback has helped tank his companies and he is losing a fortune.

R169 It's not a closet, it's just a strategic retreat from Trump and MAGA. Beyond the effort to remove the investigations and controls, and the positioning himself for many more huge government contracts ("Golden" dome indeed) ... I think the main accomplishment (now done and now needed to be under much less public awareness and scrutiny) -- he put servers and back doors in the government data bases. And now has access to more data than any of his A.I. competitors. Elon wants to develop an A.I. that "beats" all others, and allows him to... um, well, control the world.

Fun, huh?

R168 - 💯

And yet the msn has a top security clearance from our government.

[quote]Why does this guy want to involve himself in politics so bad and being evil? He could mind his own business and be high 24/7 and nobody would care

Duh, just like Trump, he was able to make the lawsuits against Tesla and SpaceX go away, not to mention BILLIONS in federal grants AND putting Tariffs on his competition who make electric vehicles.

He’s trying to stoke a race war with his pardons for black people.

Totally

Besides making the lawsuits go away, Elon also has/had full access to government records. Every government record pertaining to YOU. And the rest of us. He now has all of it.

It's really no big mystery "why" he wanted to do this.

And disgusting

Haha look at the drama at R139 and old Trump snoozing away.

R175: seems the MAGA loonies Do Not Approve of this, At All!

Trouble in paradise?

Go get 'em, El!!!!

Is he firing back at the administration or more personally at Steven Miller who furiously defended the BBB last week whilst subtweeting the man who stole his wife (and presumably took the three Miller toddlers to TX, too).

If/as Elon gets more annoyed with Trump/MAGA/Bessent/Miller it will be interesting to see how he uses Twitter/X to undermine the administration.

Also, not to get too thrilled with Musk and Rand Paul and others who want to unplug the Big Beautiful Bill... they want more cuts to medicare and medicaid and food assistance ... they want MORE people to suffer, not fewer.

How soon before Musk tweets something along the lines of "Piss ant Bessent" and his followers claim he's a comic genius?

Elmo has hurt fee-fees. Only one thing to do--go into the K hole and have a soak in the jacuzzi.

If you think about it, the recent proposal and contract for Peter the Kook Thiel's Palantir to combine and weaponize all the government's data systems is what Musk was angling for. Musk got duped by Trump. What a concept.

Well this is good news, reading the tea leaves leads me to believe the inner rage and anger Elon has been holding back is about to boil over. He's just stewing right now, wait until it really sinks in for him. I don't feel sorry for him, he's the one who gave 250 million to Trump to make this happen.

I will be stocking up on popcorn and fake movie butter.

Side note, I just discovered movie butter is actually a flavored oil. Not chicken fat like I was told as a kid, but also not butter which we all knew.

R185, Elon already has everything. And he may be working with Theil because he is so well known and so incredibly unpopular. Elon was first in, and DOGE probably has already captured the data from every single government agency. For all we know Palantir was already in the works months ago. Stephen Miller, Trump and Musk have not parted company. Elon just needs to clean himself up.

R188 here I meant to say that it may look like Musk got duped but that may be a smokescreen. Elon is aware of how unpopular he is. So he is stepping back, but he is not stepping away.

Elon is so petty and childish, I hope he funds primary challengers to many Republicans. Let him go scorched earth on them because he left DC with his tail tucked between his legs and because Steven Miller is tattling about his drug habits to the media.

Are Elon’s glitches from drugs or is he fighting against early Parkinson’s neck spasms?

Any addict or family/friend of an addict know that when he kept looking up/rolling his eyes he was totally tweaking and rolling.

Drug ADDICTS

How long before Dump actually calls Elon a drug addict on his own social network?

Is there a particular reason that Peter Thiel named his data-analyzing system Palantír?

Crystal Ball is a girl’s name R195.

R185: Thiel's antics seem to be what gets the MAGA Kool-Aid to lose its effectiveness. Seems they HATE Thiel, Do Not Want him accessing their data! If this happens, their (cult) leader will be seen as having sold them out.

Too late

r195 Because he's a dork?

He probably found the name in some medieval Catholic document that extolled the moral rectitude of serfdom, R195.

Does MAGA know that Peter Thiel is a raging FAGGOT?

R200 it’s a crystal ball in lord of the rings.

President Donald Trump on Thursday said that Elon Musk has been criticizing his major tax bill because the Tesla CEO is “upset” about the elimination of EV credits in the package, and the president nixing his pick to run NASA.

“I’m very disappointed in Elon. I’ve helped Elon a lot,” Trump told reporters at the White House.

Musk quickly fired back at Trump in a post on his social media site X.

“Whatever,” wrote the mega-billionaire, who also leads SpaceX and several other companies in addition to Tesla, a leading manufacturer of electric vehicles.

“Keep the EV/solar incentive cuts in the bill, even though no oil & gas subsidies are touched (very unfair!!), but ditch the MOUNTAIN of DISGUSTING PORK in the bill,” Musk wrote.

Musk tweeting critiques of Trump in real time as Trump dribbles on with German Chancellor in the Oval Office. Musk "unfollowing" Stephen Miller this morning, after reports that Miller's wife has left him for Musk.

What a load of sketchy soap opera in all this. How is our fate in these nut-cases hands???

The political infighting timeline is about to get juicy and acrimonious. I'm ready. Are you all ready?

This is like Gilead Place!

Or, "The Real Housewives of the White House."

FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!

Meow! Although if I were Elon, I wouldn't count on living another 40 years...

Girls. You,'re both turds!

Is this a WWF fake distraction fight?

R211, yes. it is.

It isn’t.

Escalation please

Any doubt about this as a staged feud is erased by Musk tweeting saying Trump was implicated in Epstein investigation.

MAGA seems to thrive on chaos, but this is on a different plane. Our government and its leader seems more and more unstable. More than anyone expected.

Hey Elon!

MORE MORE MORE

I think Elon lacks guile. He doesn't know how to pretend

Yes r217. That, and druggies can't keep secrets.

Why would anyone think this is fake or staged? Trump falls out with everyone eventually, and we all knew it was inevitable that two people with gargantuan egos would clash at some point.

There's too much at stake (like the budget bill and Elon's contracts) for any of them to be joking.

Michael Cohen said now Trump will go after Elon's money if he gets pissed off enough.

The only thing surprising is the breakup took a little longer than expected. I didn't think they'd still be buddies by April, but knew the bitchfight would definitely happen before the fourth of July.

And Elmo will have to up the ante again.

🎶 Remember when you held me tight And you kissed me all through the night Think of all that we've been through And breaking up is hard to do 🎶

Countdown to ICE breaking down Elon's door and shipping him to El Salvador.

Wigs have been snatched!!

And yet Vivek walks free of criticism as if he was never part of that "team".

I hope Elon goes scorched earth. I hope he reveals the fake attempt in PA, election rigging, everything. Surely Elon could escape prosecution by cooperating.

[quote] But he has exhibited erratic behavior, insulting cabinet members, gesturing like a Nazi and garbling his answers in a staged interview.

Oh, so NOW they admit it was a Nazi salute.

Stephen Miller is behind this. He's the one who had Trump put stuff in that Big Beautiful Bill that would fuck Elon and of course Trump agreed. Two vicious bitches. And Someone at the WH cause the NYT to write the article about Elon using drugs. They were determined to go after Musk. So my question is what triggered it? I think it was something international. Several European countries cancelled Starlink. Some other shit went down too. Because one day Trump is selling Teslas and the next day he and Musk are at war. I'm also curious to know what the impact of this very public fight is going to be on the legislation. Elon's condemnation of the bill matters. It might push GOP Senators to support Trump. Yes. They are contrarian enough to take sides and pass the legislation when we need it to fail.

Some MAGA voters are having doubts among themselves, but giving him benefit of the doubt publicly (to pollsters).

Well I guess he's not invited to Trump's Big Beautiful Birthday Parade

Bannon calling for musk to be deported, months after the left was venturing forth this idea is ironic

I just looked up the G7 meeting dates. It starts on June 15, the day of his BBP. That's a good thing. It'll give the other six leaders and extra to firm up strategies for their united front.

They bettah WERQ

I like what this professor said about Musk and I like his tone, too:

The BBP is June 14, r233.

R235, i like it too, dry and to the point

[Quote] according to people familiar with his activities.

Was this piece informed by Stephen Miller

UGH!

The quarrel isn't fake, but it's definitely some reality-show-type drama that's a distraction from real problems. (At the same time, it clarifies where those problems are coming from.)

Just terrible

Part of me says it isn’t fake, but then the other part of me remembers how Dump said he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and still get elected. The only reason why the Epstein files aren’t being released isn’t because Dump’s name is in there a billion times, it’s because it’s in there more than someone like Clinton. MAGA can’t rage on Clinton being a pedo if Dump’s name is in the files more. Dump’s name in the files a billion times wouldn’t be a bridge too far for Republicans at all. That’s not the reason they’re not being released. This is why I can see the “hissy fit” being fake - Dump is the master of the smokescreen. It’s always distraction with him, so how can you tell what’s real anymore.

R242 not just Trump but some of his closest buddies, guys we have probably never heard of. Epstein courted rich people and celebrities. Donnie was both so Epstein loved him, and Donnie probably brought more guys into his circle.

You tinfoil hatters give Dump way too much credit. You think his dementia addled 78 year old shrunken brain could create and sustain a fake feud? Same goes for the ketamine junkie Musk.

They are two narcissists with many other personality disorders-this was bound to happen sooner or later.

R244 - it’s not tinfoil hattery to wonder what’s real anymore.

The truth is out there R245.

But we may never know it

It was a strange friendship and did t make any sense. They’re both disgusting people but in different ways.

He was not a friend - hard "D"

Why would they fake this? What's the payoff for either of them? I swear some of you love grasping and the most idiotic straws just to start a thread.

A far more likely explanation is that both are narcissists known for emotional outbursts, questionable and temporary loyalties, and erraticly shifting views and statements. This was inevitable and was predicted from the time Elon and Trump publicly joined forces last year. I'm surprised it took this long.

Exactly, R250. Musk has agreed publicly that he'd prefer Vance take over, which can't be walked back.

They both adore the clicks online

Trump never liked Elon. He played him. He used him. Trump and his Boy Genius, Stephen Miller set Elon up. They knew he was a druggie. They knew he was "eccentric" and they played him. Elon needed Trump's good will to deal with the Government on his investigations, on his contracts, on his future projects. It cost Elon $300 million + to get what he wanted and they used him like a bitch when they gave him DOGE which was designed to fail. As he departed, Elon himself said, " I am not made for the political world." or words to that effect. He finally had his eyes opened for him. Whoever told him to GTFO of the WH gave him the best advice he's heard recently. If I were Elon, I would do a disappearing act. Go home try to rebuild your companies and your reputation, and go into rehab for the drugs. And plot your revenge. And fire Stephen Miller's wife. The guy coming out with a win in this is Vance and his sponsor Theil.

He sperms women.

Gee why is this being reported on now 😉🙄

[quote]If I were Elon

If I were Elon I would do the world a favor and blow my fucking brains out. Who the fuck are these morons speculating on his next act? "Rebuild your companies and your reputation?" GTFOOH. The man is a psychopathic drug addicted white supremacist with a breeding fetish and entirely too much money, and he just gutted the US government for the lulz. He should be dragged from his bed and decapitated in the streets. He's a fucking monster.

Tell us what you really think R256.

I agree with R256 one hundred percent. He’s a human monster

Oh, look who's in Moscow with his fellow RWNJs, sucking Putler's dick!

The father is a human piece of trash

What r256 said

Sorry but I want Elon to cause Trump as much grief as is possible. And honestly , with Elon having a Putin connection, which guy would you chose. At some point Donnie/Stephen Miller will outlive his usefulness to Vlad. Putin wants the two of them to get along. Not gonna happen. So who does he chose?

Now r256 is singing my song!

The good news is both those guys hold a grudge. Trump never got over Obama making a joke about him, Elon never go over not being invited to an EV meeting at the White House when Obama was President. I hope it lasts. These two have enough power to do some real damage to each other.

If the tech bros were able to get rid of Trump and elevate Vance-my question is are Vance and Stephen Miller friendly? Seems like what's going on in LA is at the instigation of Miller. Maybe he would be gone in a Vance Administration.

I wanna see Miller get got. I want him to step in shit so deep he cannot extricate himself. I want him foaming at the mouth and having a tantrum on TV so that they need to lock his ass up in a hospital and then he goes to prison.

Nothing ever happens to these asshole except they get wealthy. Those are their consequences

Indeed. Evil seems almost transcendent now

[quote] Elon never go over not being invited to an EV meeting at the White House when Obama was President.

R264 The event in question was when Biden was president, but your larger point is well taken.

Elon tweeted that he "regrets" some of his posts about Trump - "they went too far." He doesn't say that they were untrue, however. I believe he regrets them because he was threatened and fears the consequences.

Elon is so naive, and now the begging begins. Trump loves that game, it will be just like Mitt Romney, dangle the carrot to get in Dump's good graces, make him embarrass himself and in the end, no deal. You made a full out of yourself again.

I predict Elon will be so desperate to lick Dump's orange hole that Trump will say something to get Elon to "prove himself" by supporting Repugs campaigns financially during the midterms. Then after a possible win, Elon gets ghosted. We all pay the price.

Well, Trump wins and I am surprised Elon so easily crawls back in subservience. I hate this year.

R273, Musk was easy to intimidate. He has, as Trump would say, no cards to play. His businesses need the support of the government and, as a person, he’s deeply unpopular.

I wouldn't write Elon off just yet. He was probably advised to post the semi-apologetic messages, on advice from his business advisors or Board at Tesla, etc. Bring down the temperature a bit for now.

But I don't think he's done with Trump at all, or done with his stewing rage by a long shot. But whatever is done next, will be done behind the scenes - no ranting on X to cue people off about it.

I’d love to see both of them disappear into ignominity

Infamy

Trump doesn't forget. But what elon did wasn't that bad ...

In one of his books, he said he goes after his so called friends who didn't help him when he asked. I wonder if this is the case here...

Hasn't Trump threatened to cut off SpaceX and Starliink contracts?

R278 I disagree, when Musk tweeted "Without me Trump would have lost" attacks Trump at his core. His ego, his belief that he always wins. This angered him much more than the jibe about the Epstein Files. It will be interesting to see if Trump lets Musk back in.

^Agreed. Hell hath no fury like a wounded narcissist. Also - once he marks someone as "disloyal," they are as good as dead.

Musk realizes that he went a bit too far. However, beyond being able to take it back. Lucky if Trump agrees not to pursue revenge, letting him go away elsewhere.

He’ll “allow” the drug addicted illegal back “in” once the midterm races heat up and the thugs want his money. Watch

R283, no he is so unpopular, Trump will hide him under a bushel during the Midterms. Oh, they will kiss and make up, but it will be "different."

They are BOTh drug addicts

I think r283 nailed it. Dump will bring Musk back into the fold ONLY for the money. He will dangle the carrot just long enough to get what he wants, make Musk bend the knee and then when it's all over he will cast him aside like he did Mitt Romney. Elon will not get a thing out of this except more humiliation. Tesla stock will continue to fall, no one is suddenly going to rush out and buy those cars after this bitch fight.

Cunts, drug cunts

He’s unpopular with decent folk, r284. But the Repugs love him. He’s very popular with the qult. That’s why this feud has suddenly gone dark.

I got the impression then Cult was pissed off that his DOGE antics reflected badly on the Dear Leader's popularity?

well they are frenemies now like Trump and Putin. Trump probably has dirt on Putin as much as Putin as has dirt on Trump. But Putin doesn't care about it.

he likely snorts it up his nose

Crack is whack.

I think it would be a wonderful idea if Elon gave Trump a free ride in one of his rocket ships!

Elon posting his drug test online forgot to black out the last 4 of his social. Smart hackers know what to do.

Would it be grand if someone got to Elon “the accountant “ style and knocked some humanity into him.

He is high enough he might not notice
