I've been wondering about how much Musk is he able to put up with, but he doesn't really seem all that bothered by Musk so far, even as he has constantly been accompanied by Musk.

Poor Bannon and MAGA people really seem not being able to understand Trump personality. Of course a narcissist loves to be accompanied by accomplished people (menacing them too, but he can't put himself against them, it's just impossible), being a failed individual.

Time for my side to get 65 years to do it our way.
It would be better if your side stood aside and let some decent conservative people have a go at proper government rather than indulging in macho posing and acting like characters from Star Trek's mirror universe.

"Decent conservatives" were people like GW Bush, John McCain, Mitt Romney, Mitch McConnell...actually worse than the libs. They have also failed and their ideas must be completely removed from the public square.

The most depressing thing is that the Left seems determined not to learn the lessons of Trump's reelection. Instead of abandoning the dead end of identity politics and associated foolery, they're leaning into it.

The constant culture war is the hallmark of the right-wing reactionaries, who simply can't stop going on about trans people this and wokeness that and how M&M's are not fuckable any more and how immigrants are poisoning the blood of the US.

And eating the dogs...
Can any of the right-leaning folks here actually define "woke" and "wokeism" for us?

Musk has now spread to Germany:
Quote:
(
https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/jan/25/elon-musk-makes-surprise-appearance-at-afd-event-in-eastern-germany)
Elon Musk made a surprise appearance during Germany's Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) election campaign event in Halle in eastern Germany on Saturday, speaking publicly in support of the far-right party for the second time in as many weeks.
[...]
Musk spoke in favour of voting for the far-right party. “I'm very excited for the AfD, I think you're really the best hope for Germany's fight for a great future for Germany,” he told onlookers.
Weidel thanked him, said the Republicans were making America great again, and called on her supporters to make Germany great again.
[...]
Something tells me that it's going to be quite a bit more difficult to make Germany great this time around, especially considering the fact that both France and the UK have nukes now.

Those of you on the Left have shown that you really
do need some controls placed upon you though. Look around you, the country and the world are in ruins. You've been in charge since the 1960s and you've wrecked it ALL.
Time for my side to get 65 years to do it our way.
Spoken like a true fanatic. And, like all fanatics that comprise your side, they can't measure reality accurately.

indulging in macho posing
It isn't "posing" if it works. Case in point: the Colombian president's about-face.
