Porteroso wasn't saying they are the same. He's saying they are billionaires from opposite ends of the political spectrum. If Musk was a democrat, you would be hating on him as well.

To word what Porteroso said a different way, if Musk was a big time democrat donor and was given the access he has been given in the Trump administration, all of the republicans on here would be complaining about it.

Depends, if a democrat was exposing blatant corruption, I wouldn't care, I'd support him. I may not like him, but I wouldn't be upset that he was finding taxpayer waste.

An interesting hypothetical that will most likely never happen. Dems won't expose fraud & waste because they are the perpetrators & beneficiaries of it.

I'm beginning to think all of our resident Leftists are trolls or joys. They keep making the same stupid arguments based upon lies and one fallacy after another. And they usually ignore posts that destroy those arguments.

One of the more transparent examples of racism from the Left. Usually it's more subtle.

Musk was a hero of the left doing more to further the electric car industry than anyone in human history. He personally funded space travel and exploration for the good of mankind when the federal government deemed it not worth their time or money. Then he protected free speech through the purchase of twitter by simply opening it up for all. He didn't suppress left wing speech and thought like his predecessors were doing to the right. And that's when the democrats got big mad. They quite like the control they have in the media, academia, Hollywood, and literally every other driver of culture in the west. As they censored right wing thought and speech, they said, "if you don't like it, go build your own social media platform." So Trump launched truth social. And then they had it de-platformed. They didn't like having their snarky retort thrown back in their face. They couldn't let it stand. So Musk used his resources to level the playing field on one single social platform. And the left lost their minds.

If you haven't yet figured it out, Musk is brilliant. A rare mind. Perhaps he didn't buy his influence so much as earn a seat at the table by being really really smart and running a number of hugely successful businesses? I've seen enough waste in DC to know we need a few more business minds at the helm who actually look at P&Ls and understand that running a deficit year after year puts you out of business.

Perhaps the left should spend less time calling people nazis and more time trying to figure out how they managed to drive off someone so brilliant and wealthy who by all accounts was happy to support their side until they went nuts. A little introspection could go a really long way for the left. Fortunately for the right, they're not so good at that these days.

Most Leftists won't be that introspective & honest because it also requires some humility. They are too arrogant to admit that they might ever be wrong about anything. Even when they are caught in obvious lies they usually double down and attack those telling the truth. It's truly amazing how often they act like toddlers with their tantrums!

It's telling this post is 10 days old and not a single regressive can name an "extreme" policy of Trump.

They're too busy crying on reddit and imagining Hitler being everywhere.
