Summary
Democratic strategist Chai Komanduri claims Elon Musk has “taken over” MAGA and the Republican Party, likening it to how Trump originally took control of the GOP.
Musk, a former Biden supporter, shifted to Republicans over disagreements on free speech, immigration, and public health.
Now a close Trump ally, Musk has donated $75 million to pro-Trump groups and will co-lead the “Department of Government Efficiency” to reduce government waste.
His rising influence in GOP politics is seen as positioning him as a potential MAGA successor.
Rich people have absolutely worked together in the past. Your theory only works until suddenly it doesn’t and we have a big ass threat to deal with.
We already have a “big ass threat” it’s the Christo-fascists on the supreme court, the wingnut lower court judges, and all the dark money being funneled to groups like Mom’s for Liberty who’re burning books.
Musk and Trump are just symptoms of this “big ass threat” and the DNC have been slow rolling their response because they’re fat on the same dark money.
We’re in an autocracy. And there’s a lot of work to get out of it.
