Wasn't funny the 1st time.
Definitely hasn't gotten funnier.
Anyone else think this guy wouldn't
sell America's interests out in a minute
if offered a sweeter deal by China?

Well, first off, Musk has proven he wouldn't sell out like you claim based on business offers he received for Starlink by China and NK, where he declined solely because he didn't want to do business with them.

Secondly, and I would truly love an answer by a liberal who accepts reality, why don't you demonize popular liberal pundits, podcasters, etc. and PROMINENT Dems who have said someone should make Trump disappear, or someone should "end him", or the other examples of threats against Trump (and, for that matter, against many other Reps)?

Seriously, what is it in liberal brains that continuously ignore their own side doing the same thing as the other side? It can't be argued or denied in reality since it's all on record and easily searchable (although I did notice CNN took down an article about a podcaster threating to kill Trump from a year or two ago, which just supports the notion that the liberal media is not telling the truth to libs and we all know libs, especially DR libs, only trust the news from CNN and other liberal outlets).

I'm not making unfounded accusations or trying to demonize in any way. I just want an actual answer (not a 60-minutes edited one) as to why liberals are ignoring their own hypocrisy. Trump and Reps have many problems that are bad for the country. Why can't liberals ever see any problems in their own party and why are their thought processes blocked from seeing the hypocrisy? If you've read my posts on here and don't add in your own intent of those posts, you can clearly see I don't like Reps just as much as I don't like Dems, so I'm not being partisan. I attack both sides. But for the last few years, almost everything I can even post on DR is about hypocrisy. I've even given links to clear examples. Yet DR lib kids STILL can't accept it. Why? I mean, even a bad answer is better than no answer...or a typical partisan answer that ignores the question and immediately goes into TDS.

#2 I'm not holding my breath for that to happen. Dems have tried to Bankrupt, jail and assassinate Trump to no avail. Now if Musk simply makes the point that the right hasn't done that to Harris they have another meltdown.

What dem tried to assinate trump?

Trump bankrupted himself over and over. How did dems make his casino fail?

Dems are the party of law and order so they want to put a criminal in jail. Why do you want criminals like trump to go free?

Hmmm, The Russia Hoax? Let me know what you think when the hush money case loses on appeal because it was such a blatant case of corrupt misjustice.

If that was the case it would be plastered all over the news but the FBI seems to be pretty mute over his back ground. Also the libs say he was a registered Republican but why did he donate to Dem causes? And seriously, if the guy was stupid enough to try and assassinate a former president and think he could get away with it he's definitely a Dem.

Nice try, fishpud.

When he reached the voting age of 18 in September 2021, he registered to vote in Pennsylvania as a member of the Republican Party and remained registered as a Republican until his death.

What prevented you from reading the mueller report? Illiteracy?

Let's hear your innocent explanation for trump choosing russian asset paul manafort as his campaign manager, out of everyone in the world he could have picked. I've yet to meet a trumper who doesn't run away from this question.

I'm sure glad some of the rest of you have the energy to
debate/argue with MAGAT GOP. Because I sure don't anymore.

It is a total waste of time arguing w people who exist in
an alternate reality. I refuse to do it anymore for the most
part.

And that's why you come to the DR?

To avoid that?

LOL

Talk about living in an alternate reality.

You lack the energy because you're weak

You need to stop listening to people who lied to you about the 2020 election.

What they tell you about liberals is as fake as what they told you about election fraud.

Other than Manafort giving "polling data" to the Russians, how else was he an asset?

He worked for putin installing russian puppets across democracies in europe.

time.com
"How Paul Manafort Helped Elect Russia's Man in Ukraine"

But just because he would help put putin's puppets into a european democracy that doesn't mean he'd do it in america right?

To be a modern republican, you have to hear facts like this and tune them out or act so stupid that you don't see the issue.

Then there's the fact that he rewrote the GOP platform to say putin can keep crimea. That was the ONLY part of the platform trump touched.

Then he hired all putin's favorite people to run his admistration, crippled the state department, tried to lift sanctions on russia, parroted russian propaganda.

And as a modern republican you have to look at all that and say "DURRRRRrr EXONERATioN!"

The last guy caught in an assassination attempt was awfully chummy with Roger Stone.

Looks like the calls are coming from inside the house more and more.

It's amazing how Fox and that echo chamber can spin Trump's 6 bankruptcies into being the fault of anyone other than Trump as well as pin the 2 assassination attempt when we all know full well the assassins both voted for Trump and both were registered Republicans. When you tell a lie over and over receptive unquestioning people will believe it as truth. It's frightening that this Maga propoganda echo chamber is the only news half the country listens to. It's no accident. The take over has been engineered by the Maga oligarchy. They now own CBS News, managed to throttle NY Times and CNN anti Trump coverage, as well as bastardize Twitter into pro maga garbage. PBS will die, be defunded if they are elected. They already own most all newstalk radio stations in the country. They know who ever controls the information controls the country.

Ya know, that aspect has caused my much musing.

First of all, if it is true, then ... why?

It's not true ... yet.

Only because they haven't repeated that particular lie often enough ... yet.
