Elon Musk says he has “done enough” to help MAGA Republicans win elections, signaling a shift in his kingmaker role as Donald Trump’s top campaign backer.
After months of watching his popularity plummet, the DOGE slasher-in-chief said he plans to cut back on funding political campaigns, a move that could dampen the Republicans’ efforts at next year’s midterm elections and in the lead up to the 2028 presidential election.
“I think, in terms of political spending, I’m going to do a lot less in the future,” Musk said, when asked at the Qatar Economic Forum on Tuesday if he would continue spending as much as he has in the past.
I call Bullshit.
While Elonazi has gained much in contracts/income from the current “government”, in the process, the rankings of his various “businesses” has tanked.
Reality is: He’ll take some time off, focus on attempting to restore any good will possible for his businesses, then be right back in the political fray shortly before the midterms.
Problem with that plan is he’s in no position to regain any so-called “good will” as the Nazi bastard has quite publicly and blatantly revealed much too much about who he actually is.
Fuck. Elonazi.
🤡 🖕
Bullshit indeed. His assets should be seized, distributed to the poor, and he should suffer the fate of all the Nazis before him.
He and the rest of the Nazi administration.
Pretty sure Elon and Kanye are on the same path. So Elon will take some time off and then suddenly have another manic episode and repeat everything 2x worse than the last time.
This is why he won’t be back I think. Maybe shadow or dark money wise sure, but in the public eye? He can’t lose his billions, it’s all he has.
The thing about doing a deal with mobsters is that you don’t get to say when you’re done helping them
Elon‘s gonna find that out.
He should still be hit in the face with a shovel.
You spelled 500lb boulder wrong…
Bullets are much easier to put in a face.
Thank you for the correction.
and my axe.

I’m not sure, that might improve his looks if it’s just the one hit. Better be sure.
Nah it’s an issue with his skull shape as a whole, phrenology may be bullshit but I suspect it applies to Musk in particular.
Nominating my 30 kg e-scooter for that too ❤️
He will fund them through PACs in secret like his peers
Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives
If they keep shielding themselves from consequences we will become the consequences.
In the days of crypto and tax havens, you really think we can track this? He will still donate millions of dollars, he will just close his big mouth and use workarounds, non-profits and shell corporations to donate and obscure the source. This is all PR.
It’ll all be super PAC donations. Because that’s untracked and allows for unlimited donations.
See you at Nuremburg, you nazi piece of shit
Never believe anything a billionaire says. It’s always misdirection.
Exactly, don’t listen to what liars say … instead watch what they do
“Kiss my ass, or no more money.”
This is very much it. His public statement is a message to those who want his money.
MEH.
MAKE ELON HOMELESS
I don’t believe a word that worthless cunt says.
Daddy Drumpf is squeezing him out, so he’ll dry up the cash
They’re both filth
Open season at this point. If they got killed tomorrow, who the fuck would actually care? There would be so much in fighting and rats jumping ship, by the time things are over you’d probably end up in Congress
Me, I’d celebrate the day.
on the day that Putin, Trump, or Elon dies, the global wine industry will see a spike in sales so sharp you’ll be easily able to find it on historical graphs for the next century. I personally have a bottle earmarked for each of them.
1000%. I’ll be so fucking drunk on homebrew lmfao.
Daddy Drumpf is squeezing him out
Haven’t seen an iota of evidence to this effect. Let me know when the military stops subsidizing SpaceX and Starlink.
After the election Trump claimed Elon fixed Penn for him, if he was able to extend that ability to other states from his role in office then it would make sense that he doesn’t need to spend more
Theater.
Oh, he will come sniveling back to bend the knee.
He’s not going anywhere. He already bought his influence. Now he has more leverage over Republicans in advance of the 2026 elections.
I used to be a fan of Elon and what he was doing with his companies. Then he revealed his true self for all the world to see. Now he’s an ambulate potato, the lesser henchman of a skinless cantaloupe lizard.
Like Trump, Musk revealed his personality early on. In the 1990s when Trump was losing his father’s money in casinos, Musk was making his money by using his father’s money to buy profitable dotcom startups and claiming them as his own. Then he sold them before the market crashed.
SpaceX has been kind of a blip in all this; all his other companies are very much run in the traditional Musk style though, with him taking credit where luck and other people’s hard work are responsible.
I’m so glad that people know this. The hero worship for so many years was nauseating if you knew the tiny details.
Revealed his true self very early one people just ignored it. Who rewrites the history of a company they purchased to be the founder? That rang bells for me.
Yeah, I had some lowkey suspicions from his biography (read it for an ex), and when he made those gross comments about the rescue cave divers.
Don’t need to fund elections if you are planning on finding a way to keep them from happening.
