Yeah but wasn’t his getting involved with Monica some kind of thing with the Republicans?


When morality becomes part of politics we are all doomed.
At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a deterrent.

Elon "crashes" Trump / Bezos dinner:

“This two-week bromance is going to fall apart more spectacularly than any in history,” journalist and author Seth Abramson wrote on Bluesky. “Elon Musk is so deranged and creepy — and such a clueless stalker — that he actually crashed a private dinner between Donald Trump and Musk rival Jeff Bezos."

In the 1990s it was established character doesn’t matter.


Clinton got impeached on two charges; he didn't get a pass. By that standard Trump should be doing time in prison by now.

On what charge? Making a phone call? Taking and paying on a secured loan?

Clinton got a total pass. Left wingers defended everything he did.

Jan 6 alone should be enough to put Trump in prison. Nixon only raided Democrat headquarters. Nothing by comparison.

LOL! This is what really happened. Musk was an invited guest he just got there late. So the Press grabs a hold of it and says he crashed it and of course all you TDS people will believe anything about Trump so now it's a scandal. You're all so gullible.

This is from Jeff Bezos own newspaper The Washington Post

Jeff Bezos and Donald Trump Met for dinner at Mar-a-Lago, Joined by Elon Musk

President-elect Donald Trump had dinner Wednesday with Amazon founder Jeff Bezos (who owns The Washington Post) at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, and the two were joined by billionaire Elon Musk, a Trump transition team spokesperson confirmed.
The meeting marks the latest trek by tech executives to Trump’s home in South Florida to appeal to the incoming administration, including Silicon Valley titans who spurned Trump in his last term. Musk has been a frequent presence at Trump’s side, advising the president-elect on federal spending and tech policies. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/12/19/trump-bezos-musk-dinner/

Too bad the January 6th that the media tried to convince you happened never actually happened. If you pay attention it's becoming more clear every day. The January 6th committee is shaking in their boots now that Trump is president because he's not going to let this go. It was Banana Republic railroading at its very best and somebody's going to pay for it.

The Musk "crash" theme was made up as part of a propaganda ploy, first surfacing at the NYT.

Then Seth wrote afterwards based upon that propaganda.


Seth earlier wrote a book about Trump's Russian collusion.

That's how we know he's part of the propaganda organization.


Generally, if you don't know the difference, you're in trouble.

It's just another Trump hoax, there are about two dozen now with many more on the way. But now that we know what to look for they're easy to bust.

We aren't talking about just a businessman, we're talking about whether a person with those blemishes / character flaws is FIT to run the country.

Obviously the mouth-breathing yahoos who voted for him have very low standards.

*sips coffee, pets cat, notes continued decline of this once great land*


You know who is a ‘mouth breathing Yahoo’? Anyone who is complaining that Trump won but voted for anyone other than Harris!

If we are talking about whether Trump is fit to run the country, that’s a DIFFERENT conversation than whether he’s a successful businessman, or ‘brand builder’. You are a lawyer. Read the English words in the posts.
