Elon Musk, the Leftist Media's New Supervillain

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 11/8/2024 2:50:58 PM

There was one supervillain in the story of the 2024 campaign that almost surpassed Donald Trump -- Elon Musk. From the minute he bought Twitter in 2022, the leftists who aspire to complete messaging control were furious. They knew their 2020 jig was up, that they couldn't just suppress damaging stories like the Hunter Biden laptop. Reporters like Cleve Wootson of The Washington Post complained in the White House briefing that "misinformation on Twitter is not just a campaign issue ... it's an America issue." Post columnists call it a "mind-polluting app."

I think that the world's most intelligent and productive human (who will most likely be the world's first Trillionaire in the near future), who has dominated the markets in electrical vehicles and space travel and who is now working on neural implants and AI, is the best entity on earth to determine if something is "mind-polluting" or not. And having determined that he bought Twitter because of it being "totally polluted due to its censorship policies and corrupt ties to government".

I think it is fair to say mst of the country is now dreaming of being invited to dinner at the White House with Trump, Melania and the Avengers, amog whom Musk. Just exactly what glamor does the left offer? And may I take this opportunity to put forth Nicole Shanahan for Poet Laureate, and if anyone thinks that is the lowest chair among the Avengers,and she deserves better, I remind everyone of Walt Whitman.

The propaganda media is furious that someone is able to counter program against them, AND much of the time, PROVE that the PM is WRONG or LYING. It shows them up for the dopes that they are. It's also a great medium for people like JD Vance and other Conservative voices to have a reasoned conversation without some moron trying to spout their insanity over them.

I love the fact that Musk doesn't give one darn about what they think of him. Also, he's a better American than any of the libs.

They imagine Musk as Lex Luthor, when in reality, he is more like Thomas Edison mixed with Tom Swift.

No, you don’t have to be gracious or magnanimous to Democrats right now. Wear your MAGA gear. Shout Trump 2024. We won; they lost. Show no mercy, for you shall receive none. There is no way the liberal mind would have been gracious to us if Kamala had won. They’re too self-righteous and arrogant. Those who are condescending aren’t known for this, and a video made by a retired professor demonstrates why you don’t need to be nice to liberals in the aftermath of this MAGA landslide. Meet ‘Arlene Unfiltered,’ who has since deleted her Twitter account because her 2024 projections got taken to the woodshed on election night.

The cast of Saturday Night Live cheekily pledged their allegiance to President-elect Donald Trump and claimed they all voted for him in the first cold open since Tuesday’s historic election. The skit began with cast members solemnly discussing how Trump’s win over Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris would be “shocking” and “horrifying” for many of the liberal-leaning show’s viewers. They then said that Trump might seek “vengeance” against political opponents, leading long-time cast member Kenan Thompson to say, “We at SNL would like to say to Donald Trump, we have been with you all along.”

This just in: the end of the world has been postponed. The wailing of Democrats and their media mouthpieces notwithstanding, Donald Trump’s landslide victory is the dramatic course correction our nation and the entire free world desperately needed. Its wide sweep offers the promise of progress on so many fronts that it already feels like Morning in America again. The immediate benefits include both domestic and foreign gains. They are examples of the “Trump effect” and should be seen as down payments on the progress to come.

Bosa donned the hat following San Francisco’s “Sunday Night Football” victory less than two weeks before the 2024 election, showing his support for Donald Trump, who ended up defeating Vice President Kamala Harris to become the country’s President-elect. Per multiple reports, the hat violated Rule 5, section 4, article 8 of the NFL rulebook, which reads: “Throughout the period on game-day that a player is visible to the stadium and television audience (including in pregame warm-ups,

Eight years ago, there wasn't a soul brave enough to wear a MAGA hat through the streets of Manhattan, where liberals openly sobbed after Trump's shock election win. But it's a new day in America. Trump is back, bold and more popular than ever.And in the lefty safe haven of Manhattan, support for him is higher than ever. With the wind of his election win propping our sails, the Daily Mail team ventured out in Greenwich Village to test his newfound popularity. I was the guinea pig of choice - anointed with a bright red MAGA hat, I bravely took on the task. The result was surprising to say the least.

President-elect Donald Trump made history this week after pulling off one the biggest political comebacks, as well a big congratulations to Republicans gaining the Senate and presumably the House. As to no surprise, Democrats are furious. Not only did Trump win the election, but he gained momentum in every single group and demographic while Vice President Kamala Harris didn’t even come close. Now, left-wing media pundits are trying to figure out how to drown out Trump— much like they have for the past eight years since he first stepped into the political spotlight.

The Hollywood star, 63, threw his support behind Harris after penning a blistering op-ed on why Joe Biden would cost the Democrats the win if he didn’t abandon his campaign, but it still wasn’t enough to prevent an historic victory for Donald Trump. Clooney has since been criticized by Democrats for his influence during the election, with some claiming Harris' loss was his fault.

A Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) supervisor told disaster relief workers in Florida to “avoid homes” with signs supporting President-elect Donald Trump, the agency confirmed Friday. The FEMA official — Marn’i Washington — conveyed her edict both verbally and in a Microsoft Teams chat used by relief workers canvassing Lake Placid homes ravaged by Hurricane Milton last month, according to the Daily Wire. “Avoid homes advertising Trump,” Washington wrote in a “best practices” memo to employees. The order was the second bullet point in a list instructing workers to not go “anywhere alone,” practice “de-escalation,” stay hydrated and to “follow the rules.”

Now vendors and others who worked on those concerts, which were meant to persuade “low-propensity voters” to turn out for Harris, are reportedly facing the prospect of unpaid invoices.

Now we have a Hutu Tutsi world where people don’t care. When they start hurting undocumented people, the other people in the country including other people of color won’t care.”

Barack Obama and his wife Michelle have been slammed by his biographer for 'talking down' to voters in 'tone-deaf and clueless' preaching that harmed Kamala Harris' ill-fated presidential campaign. The effect was so bad that – combined with Donald Trump's victory – it is likely to reduce the 44th president's political relevance to 'Bill Clinton levels', David Garrow said in an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com.

The 2024 election is over, the last few races are being decided, and for the most part, only the recriminations remain. The Harris/Walz campaign tried everything from "brat" and "joy" to calling Donald Trump a fascist and a Nazi, and they failed. They didn't just fail, they failed catastrophically, losing not only the presidential election by a wide margin in the electoral vote and the total vote count, but they also lost more Senate seats to the Republicans and, it looks like, control of the House of Representatives as well. President-elect Donald Trump will enter office with a clear and undeniable mandate, and with a friendly Congress.

The Justice Department is reportedly narrowing its focus on prosecuting the most “egregious” offenders involved in the Jan. 6, 2021 protest at the U.S. Capitol building. Of particular concern are those who committed felony assaults on law enforcement officers, according to an NBC News report. This development comes after President-elect Donald Trump won the presidential election and prepares to take office in early 2025. The primary reason for the Justice Department’s tighter focus is likely the possibility that Trump will pardon or commute the sentences of many of those who were arrested and are facing prosecution over Jan. 6. His victory has sparked optimism among the defendants and those supporting them.

Yet, here's Trump's offer (emphasis, mine): I am very surprised that the Democrats, who fought a hard and valiant fight

Honest to God,” the anti-Trump Republican posted on Instagram Threads. “This narrative that his opponents are intimidated is what MAGA wants to believe. No, we are REINVIGORATED,” he added. Kinzinger has been known for his critical comments about Trump and notably served on the House Committee designated to review the January 6 Capitol insurrection.
