He used to spend his money where the GOP needed it across the nation. Now, he’s desperately playing defense because he knows that if Dems take Texas, his little “Starbase isn’t subject to any laws” bullshit will be over, and he’ll be in prison.

No, but when every commercial for a month solid is telling texas that the dem is a communist Muslim vegan coming for your guns, there’s a good chance independents might think about supporting the other guy.

There's been numerous examples of large amounts of money being spent yet that candidate looses. Michigan is just 1 example. Telerico can do this.

If money wasn’t effective in political campaigning, do you really think they would be spending this much EVERY TIME? Why do you think super PACs even exist? *Please* do not pretend that this gross tactic isn’t effective and something you can counter by just “talking to people”

This isn't just about protecting GOP seats but about his investments in Texas. He move a lot of his businesses there because Texas doesn't have the same kinds of regulations that California has, unless Dems take over.

Tesla will forever be a symbol of fascism, until he resigns as CEO. I’m reminded that the US is slipping into fascism every time I see a Tesla. I’m reminded a lot…that people are okay with genocide as long as their portfolios go up.
