There it is. In the war of narcissist v narcissist, we knew he’d say this.

Edit: Have a nice day DJT!

What a couple of douche canoes.

What would haven been even funnier for Musk to say is "Without me, Trump would have lost, again."

When the World's Richest Man who spent a QUARTER OF A BILLION DOLLARS on ONE Candidate says "without me he would have lost", what does that mean?

[-] dhork@lemmy.world 85 points 1 month ago

"I bought him fair and square, but now he's defective. Can I get a refund?"

[-] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 19 points 1 month ago

Also, we're not in a democracy anymore.

Is he implying he manipulated the election? Or does it just sound like it?

[-] Coskii@lemmy.blahaj.zone 54 points 1 month ago

For once in my life, I want musk to say more.

[-] Railcar8095@lemm.ee 10 points 1 month ago

I want him to say much more. Starting with "No! Not there bees!"

First and last links are the data. The middle links are for us stupid people that need to be told how to read the data in the last link.

Why would he openly admit to a crime of such magnitude? He's an idiot, but he's not THAT much of an idiot. He wouldn't incriminate himself.

[-] OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works 21 points 1 month ago

Incriminate himself? He's far too rich for that to matter.

[-] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 15 points 1 month ago

Then And if he did, it wasn't that bad. And if he did, that's not a big deal. And if did, that's not his fault. And if it was, he didn't mean it. And if he did, america deserved it.

[-] LavaPlanet@lemm.ee 8 points 1 month ago

He knows he's too rich to ever be convicted of anything. He just bought a president and a whole country of his own. He's drunk with power and thinks he's invincible.

It's a bitter feeling that the best defense the US has against a fascist takeover is the incompetence and narcissism of the ones doing the taking over.

[-] floofloof@lemmy.ca 29 points 1 month ago

Hitler's cabinet was full of these kinds of people too, and he still managed to do a lot of damage. It's not much of a protection.

[-] SexualPolytope@lemmy.sdf.org 41 points 1 month ago

I've been waiting for this shit for months lol.

[-] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 40 points 1 month ago

No shit Nazi. That's why we hate you and want you deported.

[-] OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 month ago

Deported directly into a wood chipper.

Deport his ass. Nationalize his assets and handcuff him to the first thing smoking to Joburg

Somebody has to dare him to prove it, and maybe he'll show how he rigged the voting counts in the swing states.

[-] daannii@lemmy.world 27 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Let's hope they do a mutually assured destruction of each other.

The egos are big enough.

[-] slaneesh_is_right@lemmy.org 27 points 1 month ago

I would pay to see them in a cage match lol

And yes, slaanesh is right.

[-] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 10 points 1 month ago

WASHINGTON (AP) — Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s alliance took off like one of SpaceX’s rockets. It was supercharged and soared high. And then it blew up.

AP news is hiring comedians it seems

Is this a subtle admission that they cheated? Or is he just implying that he injected so much cash into the campaign that he changed the campaign calculus. I fail to understand how money won the election. Supposedly the dems had over a billion dollars during the campaign, and they lost. So, then whats he trying to say? Money has decreasing returns after a certain level.

[-] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

Lots of commentary/analysis on the Repubs winning dispite outfunded 1:2. General consensus is that Dems really mismanaged their money on ad campaigns that did nothing whereas Trump was able to secure discussion for free (no surprise) and used media allies for hypertargeting

[-] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 month ago

The voting machines? I think he had a hand in those if I recall correctly.

Shouldn't Child Protective Services be all over him right now? How can he be allowed to continue doing so much heavy drugs, with his little kids in the next room??

Oh, so he's to blame

[-] ExtantHuman@lemm.ee 12 points 1 month ago

That'll prompt a rage post or two. Hopefully The Dipshit focuses his ire on him instead of the innocents for a while, now.

Dish bro tell us how you did it, give receipts bro lay it out.

[-] selkiesidhe@lemm.ee 7 points 1 month ago

Certainly sounds like election fraud to me. I hope the shithead decides to release all the info he has on that issue while hopped up on ketamine. It's not gonna change our opinions on him but it would be nice to have proof that Yam Tits did not win legally.

[-] Goretantath@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

No shit, musk rigged the election.
