following the wind with elon musk.....Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has a big-name supporter for a possible presidential run in 2024: Elon Musk. Musk came out for the sunshine state gov in a brief Twitter conversation Friday night with the account @ProudElephantUS, who asked if he would back DeSantis. “Yes.” Musk replied, before adding, “But Twitter as a platform must be fair to all.” https://nypost.com/2022/11/26/elon-musk-backs-ron-desantis-for-2024-presidential-run/
2016 Tesla Motors Inc. Chief Executive Elon Musk spoke up against Republican U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump on an interview Friday. “I think a bit strongly that (Trump) is probably not the right guy” for the presidency, and wouldn't be the best candidate to represent the U.S. abroad, he told CNBC. Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton’s economic and environmental policies “are the right ones,” Musk said. The current U.S. political climate is not at its best, Musk said. However, the election results are unlikely to have much bearing on the future of Tesla TSLA, +1.79% he said. Musk is embroiled in his own election of sorts — shareholders of both Tesla and SolarCity Corp. US:SCTY , a company Tesla plans to buy for $2.6 billion, will vote on the merger Nov. 17, a little more than two weeks after Election Day. Read more: The Tesla-SolarCity deal is still dividing Wall Street Musk has lobbied hard for the merger’s approval, saying it makes sense to offer consumers a complete, seamless electric-powered package: cars, solar panels, and stationary batteries. Shares of Tesla shed some of their gains as Musk was being interviewed. The stock has underperformed the S&P 500 index SPX, +0.07% so far this year, down 20% to the S&P’s gains of nearly 3% in the same period.
2018 Tesla CEO and PayPal billionaire Elon Musk surprised many Friday when he declared on Twitter that he is a socialist. Conservative critics, however, may well have agreed, given his companies’ reliance on the state. Musk tweeted his declaration Friday after first tweeting that socialists have no sense of humor: Those who proclaim themselves “socialists” are usually depressing, have no sense of humor & attended an expensive college. Fate loves irony. By the way, I am actually a socialist. Just not the kind that shifts resources from most productive to least productive, pretending to do good, while actually causing harm. True socialism seeks greatest good for all.
2020 In this day and age, emojis speak louder than words. Musk's 2020 presidential choice came up on Feb. 13 when he responded to a tweet of TikTok video of a woman holding a sign saying, “Just because I voted for Biden doesn’t mean I’m stupid." And how did the self-described "Chief Twit" respond? "I voted for Biden," he tweeted, along with an emoji meaning pensive or remorseful.
2020 As a reminder, I’m in *favor* of universal basic income
2021 It is high time there was a carbon tax!
2024 Elon Musk (2022) has already made his choice for the 2024 presidential election. After having voted Democrat in the last three presidential elections, the billionaire has already announced that, in two years, he will vote for the Republican candidate. The question remains for which Republican candidate when former President Donald Trump has already announced his candidacy. As the new owner of the social network Twitter since Oct. 27, Musk has reactivated Trump's account, but the latter has not yet posted a message on the platform, despite provocations from the boss of Tesla.
Self-Fulfilling Prophecy in Science Fiction? In a science fiction novel Project Mars, written in 1949 but published in 2006, Wernher von Braun describes a Martian government where the leader is titled "the Elon". The Martian government was directed by ten men, the leader of whom was elected by universal suffrage for five years and entitled "Elon." Two houses of Parliament enacted the laws to be administered by the Elon and his cabinet. The Upper House was called the Council of the Elders and was limited to a membership of 60 persons, each being appointed for life by the Elon as vacancies occurred by death. In principle, the method was not unlike that by which the College of Cardinals of the Roman Catholic Church is appointed. Usually the Elon chose historians, churchmen, former cabinet members or successful economic leaders who could offer lifetimes of valuable experience.
Very strange that the #1 man pushing the hardest to colonize Mars is named Elon! False Savior Figure: Likeable Man with Dark Agenda One has to question why such a person with a larger-than-life personality and an apparent dedication to saving the human race would, when there are so many pressing problems to humanity, be working on this particular set of projects: Green energy, space travel, transhumanism... it's exactly the kind of agenda that the New World Order wants! Especially the brain-computers. Musk is doing more than any other figure to popularize these technologies and to persuade and influence people to support them. He's even more dangerous than most of the evil transhumanist "we're going to become gods" freaks, because unlike them he's funny and likeable on the surface. If you didn't research his history of political actions and his eccentric beliefs and statements in support of transhumanism, and just heard one recent headline, you'd probably want to support him! For instance, the 2022 use of Starlink satellites to provide internet to Ukraine during the Russian invasion was definitely a good thing, short-term [GUSNOTE: IT WAS AND STILL IS THE “WRONG THING”. SEE OUR POSTS ON YUCKRAINE]. But what's the long-term outcome of having all these satellites in orbit, connecting the whole Earth with high-speed internet signals? Will that not eventually result in the exact kind of centralization of power that the Starlink system was purportedly created to avoid? https://www.isawthelightministries.com/Elon_Musk.html
