    Musk caused a lot of problems mainly while he was being self serving. He fired a lot of FAA leadership and mass laid off air traffic controllers. He wanted to steal a contract from Verizon for SpaceX. Aircraft incidents increased almost immediately. DOGE also led cuts at NOAA which NWS relies on. There was a surprise tornado in the midwest a couple of months ago and flash flood in Texas. These events claimed lives. I blame Musk. Musk is at least partially responsible for Trump gaining power whether he hacked vote tabulations or not.

    There could not be a worse bad actor to be involved in our politics. I like the idea of a centrist party but want Musk to not be involved at all.

    He is 100% not going to do anything. Oh he may say he will but they will never field a single candidate and support Republicans to the hilt. This is at best a way for him to grift

    “Time for a new political party that actually cares about the people,” he said.

    Yes, because Musk is the first person that comes to mind whenever “actually cares about the people” is mentioned. 🤮

      On the other hand, there’s a certain authenticity that comes from knowing he came up with the slogan himself (because there’s no way that any AI – even grok – would generate something so tepid and transparent).

    I just want to see him actually keep his word and keep Republicans who voted for the big bill from getting reelected.
