Here’s a particularly uncharitable article about him ,which also displays him as very much not a billionaire.

Even if you were right, I’d rather that people with privilege fight for equality than not fight for equality
Under our system money is power and influence, only allowing pieces of shit to wield those things because we’re too noble to get rich is dumb.
A single mom with 6 kids isn’t going to become president.
This is why Musk wants to defeat Biden. Biden’s billionaire tax on the rich…
Under Biden’s proposals, a 25% tax on those with more than $100 million would raise $500 billion over 10 years to help fund benefits such as child care and paid parental leave.
And with that 25% tax he would still have more money than he could ever spend. These billionaires are not humans, their ghouls. They deserve our hate.
Buying politicians can get expensive. Wont you think of the poor billionaires that would have to cut down on their bribery if there were a wealth tax??
if he keeps dragging his companies down, he won’t have to worry so much about a tax on the ultra-wealthy anymore.
You could do a lot of good with that money. Like, build a ton of housing. Replace some lead pipes or other hazardous infrastructure. Pay some medical debt.
Instead he does this.
I won’t be mad if Musk meets a sudden end. I just hope it’s a really embarrassing one.
In a perfect world libertarians wouldn’t exist, empathy would be far higher in all humans, and we wouldn’t have any of these problems like homelessness or starvation. But we don’t live in a perfect world. We live in hell.
without libertarians, who’s gonna advocate for lowering the age of consent? who will maintain spreadsheets of states and their ages of consent with details about their Romeo & Juliet laws? who will think of the children, so to speak?
Wait… Aren’t conservatives saying “won’t anyone think of the children?!?” I mean they are the ones who got roe v Wade oveturned
Supporting a rapist seems pretty on brand for him.
Yeah! He’s only been held civilly liable for calling a woman a liar after she talked about how he raped her.
And he threatened that one woman out of testifying that he raped her when she was a kid, so that’s not a conviction.
He talked about “grabbing them by the pussy” but that’s only his own words!
We have multiple testimonies of trump raping kids with Epstein, his name shows up in the Epstein records a lot, there’s photographs of them together, and Trump talked about being friends with Epstein, but that’s like… So what? That could happen to anyone.
So…
Uh…
So there! Clean as a whistle
Most rapists havent been convicted of rape
Most rapists also havent bragged to Howard Stern on his show about walking into beauty pageant dressing rooms unannounced to peep on young girls.
Most rapists havent been recorded bragging to Billy Bush about grabbing women by the pussy without their consent.
Most rapists arent on video dancing and chatting up Jeffery Epstein at their own club, pointing out a woman and saying “she’s hot” and later at that same party grabbing a woman and patting her on the butt.
Most rapists havent been convicted of defrauding people in order to steal their money to pay a pornstar to not talk about the extramarital affair he had.
Most rapists werent president when Jeffery Epstein died in prision despite being on suicide watch and under 24 hour surveillance. The tapes mysteriously dissapearring and guards not saying anything.
But Trump has done all that (except being convicted of rape, of course.)
One of great examples why billionaires shouldn’t exist.
