It is good business sense to pay big to influence Trump. Trump has no clue what he us doing, has no knowledge of good management. So Trump is a passive puppet to whomever has bought proximity.

You mean he stole the election. Elon is just as much a con artist as his criminal puppet master.

He bought that’s pig the win

And Bezos complied in advance

So tell me why the Post isn’t railing against citizens united?

he's a filthy villain

Like Brad Pitt in that movie “ America isn’t a country it’s a business now pay me my fucken money “

What does he want? Creeping around in the shadows not voted for or accountable. All for the good of the common person? Long term human benefit? Nothing for himself? To be seen in a good light? Peace and love? Is he a person who just wants people to be happy? For people to think a curtain way?

Con man.

The economy is still Biden's. He got richer thanks to Joe.

With Drumpf as President, he will get much richer, unfortunately, the same can't be said for the rest of us

The Post is complicit. Congrats.

Literally an oligarchy

And just like that, Daddy Warbucks cashed in!

This guy survived from bankruptcy by taking subsidies from the government and foreign government’s help. He’s a f**king greedy fascist who is buying the power, spreading lies through Xitter. He said some bad things about homeless people, poor people. He deserves to go to hell!

He is directly involved in cutting veterans' benefits. Don't applaud this guy. He should be despised.

POS Immigrants like him , Thiel from SA taking over the US….

I WONDER WHY.??

A little surprised the owners let you publish this. It might upset the new administration. There could be a note appended to each article that the publishing of said article was or was not vetted according to journo 101 standards. (To be clear, the owner butting in would not meet those standards.)

Mais ainda aqueles que não são bilionários no papel, mas tem muitos bilhões escondidos.

And he's laughing all the way to the bank!

Billionaire’s newspaper sucking up to a billionaire government handout recipient.

Carpetbagger.

Oligarch of '24. This must end. All the billionaires will destroy democracy. They are obeying in advance because they are pathetic weak men. As is trump. Pathetic losers.

It ain't over till the fat lady sings. Repressive fantasies have had difficulties with reality before. The fall will be our reward.

As we have separation of church and state : Let us have separation of government and billionaires ASAP

Elon is a criminal and horrible person

Boycott Tesla. That would be a good start in the resistance ! We should shame democrats that are still buying and thus sponsoring techno-fascism. Maybe print stickers ? “Elon : My Tesla is for sale because America is not”

So, he is running all these companies and still gets involved in politics? When does he sleep? He truly is an American Oligarch.

Who pumps money into Tesla stocks? qr.ae/pY1yP6

Nauseating.

How many billions of dollars do you need before you realize that money won’t fix whatever unpleasant feeling you have inside? Think of the good that could have been done. The true services to humanity you could have provided. The health, life, and joy abandoned for what? More zeroes on an account?

Now he's looking for his second purchase, the UK.

Democracy is for sale

What election? Money talks and nobody walks! Thanks for oligarchy acceptable to the masses.

I wish I could trust you

I wish I could trust the Washington Post.

Taxing billionaires is the only way to fight people like him.

There is no country that legalizes corruption the way the United States does.

And that's why every corporation is getting in line for the gold rush.

Conned.

He sucks

We have to get money out of politics. We cannot have the people represent us bought any longer.

I’d like to know if all this time he’s been campaigning and pandering to the dark Magalord, if he’s been on the clock with Tesla and Space X? And if receiving pay from both companies, which get foundering ship loads of federal money, is any kind of double dipping?

But America is a meritocracy. 😑

This is likely temporary. The managed market is usually down and cannot compete with a well regulated market.

Criminal

He’s what Australians call a prize wanker!

Don’t give a bottle of water to someone waiting in line to vote, or you will be arrested and charged with a crime. 🤷‍♀️

Funny that… who knew?

The corruption in the US continues.

The Wall Street casino in action with valuations divorced from reality.

And will soar and all the misfits ambassadors And all filling positions

This looks like #StateCapture

Grifting spree

I'd be too afraid to be as much of a cunt as Musk is, in case someone shot me.

You useless people. Yeah, bury the conflict of interest details. Just shutter yourself, already. I feel so very badly for the few journalists of merit who still write on your paper.

It’s almost like the system is designed to force you to profit from buying the presidency. Why is the system designed to allow billionaires to just buy the presidency?

Naivety believing trump won 7 swing states without cheating, apparently a record voter turnout resulted in fewer votes being counted, how,?? Musk knows and has more power

We have got to move for a way to reverse citizens united. This shit has GOT to stop!

Those valuations are bubbles. Tesla P/E TTM: 112X SpaceX (privately held) estimated P/E: 308. No way a mature, high market share company like Tesla is worth 112x earnings. There just is not enough more market to grow that much more. Bubbles always collapse

Thank you Chief Justice Roberts for Citizens United. Money is speech and Elon had a lot to say.

Cool and normal 🙄

MAKE THE RICH PAY TAXES! TRUMP IS HUMAN GARBAGE!

Some "free speech absolutist". He's also supporting a mass censorship bill

Maga had Project 25. What is Musk-rats project? apnews.com/article/musk...

Yeah, me too.

MOW RON A**HOLE

Does that really play in Europe where free speech is definitely not absolute?

Americans appear so gullible

Neat, a billionaire owned paper publishing a puff piece on another foreign billionaire buying government influence directly from the new president

Man. Enough of this dude already.

Musk thinks he can buy policy, Trump will screw him over in two seconds. the grifter never pays his debts.

That’s some fuckin good ROI🤬🤬🤬🤬 this is truly the most abominable thing ever, it’s blood money. But Elon, the emerald mine heir, KNOWS all about blood money.

A disgrace.

The Supreme Court's decision on CITIZENS UNITED made massive donations by corporations possible. The billionaires use corporations and pacs to channel their donations.

The new de facto President of the United States!

I can’t believe I was considering buying a Tesla, that was before I realized what a severe racist misogynist he is. Musk wants the legal right to hire only white straight males regardless of qualifications, it’s why he wants to erase DEI, a law that prevents discrimination against women etc.

Luigi, where are you when we need you?

He should leave the UK alone.

You can also find: Musk and his brother misrepresenting their legal status in this country before their investors. That Tesla was already an autonomous company with two founders, a mission statement, and a working model, when musk bought it.

Elon bought amerikkka

And the greedy prick will horde his billionaires and not do one thing to help people who need help or invest in saving our planet. What a disgusting POS.

Wow, he must be a hard worker!

Really dislike sharing WP and other articles, as it just promotes greedy pricks like Bezos, Musk and Murdoch. People should actively seek out authentic alternatives run by ethical ownership. Share and promote those sources. #media #banbillionaireowners #freemedia

I hope DonOld voters are happy for him.

They all think they’re one of them—billionaire adjacent. I don’t understand it.

We ain’t seen nothing yet. His position will make him the first trillionaire by 2027.

That guy and his closest oligarch pals most notably spent $44b to buy an election!

$44B for X looked like folly - until it became the #GOP ’s loudest megaphone. #Musk bet on free speech, #Trump won, and now #Tesla and #SpaceX thrive. Funny how 'bad investments' age well when the #Democrats lose the power to regulate them into oblivion.

Oligarchy: America, here I come.

How is it not illegal to just give presidential candidates shit loads of money?

There is something incredibly wrong with this.

So oligarchy good now?

Kinda unfair, huh?

That is because y’all keep buying his shit. Boycott. Protest. Normalize NOT giving him money, but supporting small local businesses.

problem when american stop buying garbage tesla. americans going to see only thing musk cared about was himself not the maga idiots

No good development

Seems pretty swampy to me. Or do the MAGAts no longer wish to drain the swamp? Or is this just the propaganda-spewing, Trump-appeasing, billionaire-owned legacy media trying to get me to hate the "other side" more?

Or, as we Republicans call it, "Return on investment."

Sale of America/democracy - to the highest, most immoral bidder ☠️

We are a bargain country.

What is the return rate on that wager? Traitor Tot got smart. He is the only person I am aware of that bankrupted 2 casinos. Russian money was in the mix. He realized 1600 Pennsylvania Ave is where the National Piggy Bank of America is located. Google maps

Just wait until he burns our country to the ground. You and your owner will be happy, right?

Biggest Gov’t contractor EVER!

This man is the best example of no matter what your worth, or how much you make, it is never enough.

Deport Musk. Fuck the scum.

Criminals stick together

And Trump will top it off by giving him another tax break. Trump’s policies are tax the poor & middle class, take away programs that they have paid into for decades, give to the wealthy. He’s the opposite of Robin Hood.

It just shows being worth $400 billion can't make you a better person.

youtu.be/L9VoRmjxvPs?...

The GOP can be bought for a price. They don't care about anyone but themselves.

They told you they would take America without firing a single bullet. In the end it was too easy.

Soared based on what? Poor sales performance and underperforming?

The government contracts will be flowing.

Of course he is. Trump will take nothing from the billionaires. He’s giving them positions they are unqualified as favor. This is the Mafia of our country now in control. What an Fing country we have now.

Grift, graft, grift, rinse, and repeat till there is nothing left.
