Summary
Donald Trump’s allies are worried that Elon Musk’s supposed canvassing efforts could cost them the election.
Elon Musk’s America PAC is under fire for allegedly faking canvassing data and mistreating workers on Donald Trump’s campaign. Roughly a quarter of reported door-knocks in Arizona and Nevada were flagged as “unusual,” suggesting location spoofing. Canvassers also report poor conditions, including working through a hurricane and being transported in a U-Haul instead of promised rentals. Frustrated Republican operatives are urging Trump to abandon Musk’s PAC due to its operational failures.

It always cracks me up when people say private companies can do the job better with less regulation. Most businesses fail and the news is constantly full of stories about fraud.
And more often than not, these companies rely on handouts from the government anyway.
Especially if they are rich enough to buy the necessary politicians. Like Phoney Stark is.
Especially these people indeed, it’s one of the reasons they get so rich in the first place.
And toxic shit and doors flying off of planes and stuff. But I guess the top ones got a little more money out of it for a quarter or two I guess…
Just gotta work in a big enough company to realize that it’s no more efficient than the public sector. Compared to a business with 50 employees and a single boss? Sure, private sector is much more agile. Public services in the US have over 20 millions employees with about 3 millions for the federal government, what company has that many so we can compare apples to apples? Hint: None, Walmart is the biggest at 2 million employees.
The guy who blew vast sums of campaign money on fake canvassing (and vast sums of his own money on Twitter) is who Trump plans to put in charge of government waste. Let that sink in.
well let’s not also forget the amount of taxpayer money dumped into Tesla/spacex/starlink! the guy is the biggest welfare leach, and most of his ideas were stolen from someone else!
so basically a welfare queen whining about “excess government spending”. How ironic.
Well he also wants to put anti vaxxer RFK Jr in a prominent role overseeing public health, so there’s that too. Though I thought the role of Secretary of Transportation would go to Elon.
I love when republicans think they are the smartest people on Earth as they stab themselves in the face. They literally deserve what they do to themselves.
I find your imagery accurate and disturbing.
And I wish the GOPers would do a lot more of the “Stabbing themselves in the face” thing. It would keep them from bothering us.
it would be better if the just stopped acting so weird
I’ve been waiting for the moment these two egos clash with each other and the ultimate breakup plays out in front of everyone.
I just hope it’s enough to be the final nail in the Trump campaign’s coffin, if it hasn’t already imploded enough on its own.
I suspect that will happen after election day (3 days from now).
I’ll be happy enough if its “just” Elon who loses out.
Grifters grifting grifters lol.
Republicans: The only thing that can make us lose is election interference.
Elon: You have my sword.
Republicans: Wait, no…
They can all eat shit and die.
Hopefully as soon as possible.
It’s a good thing that Musk is only a hereditary meritocrat, a person of mediocre ability able to buy his way into the ranks of the great, and having been surrounded by claques of sycophants for his entire life, having lost any capacity for self-criticism. So, of course when he put his visionary genius to work getting Trump elected, it went as well as you’d expect.
Trump leading in election betting odds? Feeling sick
Betting odds measure the vibes of people who gamble. Not exactly reliable
Don’t get so stressed about completely made up numbers. Save it for Tuesday, then stress :)
Focus that stress energy and go volunteer!
Nah. I like to get a good head of steam on my stress before I go off the rails. Much more spectacular.
Trump and Musk probably just bought up enough to put them ahead.
I honestly think that’s true, plus faked polls, burn a few mail boxes that don’t matter. Just need enough weird things to happen to “credibly” claim voter fraud and give the state legislatures room to avoid certifying their elections.
Not going to spend a second trying to find the answer, but I wonder if the odds-makers are distinguishing between who wins the election and who is the next leader of the United States. Because those may be different things.
