This "(g)rift" was predictable. Musk intends to try to win over the left again & will start claiming he has evidence against Trump. Please don't take the bait.
Someone else has "Elon Musk becomes a Lefty after falling out with Trump but no one buys it." On their Bingo Card too
he wont garner anymore support than his current fans.
His current fans might just be dumb enough to buy it and start hating him too over him becoming 'woke'.
Indeed. I pretty much expect his left ward pivot to be the end of his relevance
I don’t think anyone would buy it. It would be funny and pathetic though.
Like, he’d have to make some conciliatory statement towards Vivianne and there’s just too much sex pest shit. The Left isn’t innocent of overlooking sex pest and the Curtis Yarvin insane shit, but not to Elmo’s level.
Thing is. At this point I'm certain Elon Musk is a closet transgirl and s/he will pivot left for that reason
Edit: I'm sure if Elon reaches out to Vivian she will reject him
You'd think a seig heil would permanently burn that bridge, but we dumb.
Yeah this whole thing is 100% Elon going "Oh shit... turns out that it was the left who bought my cars. Better try to salvage that relationship with a few meaningless tweets."
