Guess the journalists will answer " Weird Flex, but OK"
I had this discussion with people IRL recently, wondering who the real power behind the throne was, because when they let him do interviews on his own, it’s clear the orange figurehead is too far gone with dementia to be this organized and focused on the transition. I hope that the real power behind the throne is Leon, because he’s so stupid. Dangerous, yes, but not as insidiously dangerous as somebody smart.
In any case, I want this to be true. It’s exactly what I would’ve predicted, so I’ll keep calling him President Musk.
I don’t think it’s dementia, not unless he’s had dementia his entire life.
Somebody did an analysis of his speech, and found that his vocabulary has markedly decreased in recent years. That’s one of the signal early indicators of dementia. Even back in 2016, he was noticeably more articulate. Since then, several other symptoms of dementia have shown up: Memory issues, doctors concerned enough to do cognitive assessments, losing the ability to process metaphors, impulsivity, uncharacteristic swearing, and losing track of the passage of time.
I predicted this a while back: Having two thin-skinned megalomaniacs working together never works out in the long run. Trump and Elon are both too dysfunctional even to be able to work individually with patient people without it going off the rails. Having them working together with each other is doomed to explosive failure eventually.
Oooooooo, President Elon is gonna be pissed at poor man Trump and cut off his funding.
Trump better shape up and kiss the ring.
Sounds like he might be easy to manipulate by the media.
Did you hear that Trump is just following orders from the religious right, that Christian nationalists are the true president? All his anti abortion and anti socialism stuff is just following orders from his master.
