If our side wins, Elon, you will experience severe economic pain. It will be a necessary temporary hardship.

Not even, you could literally take 90% of Elon Musk's money and it wouldn't really hurt any more than it hurts to see one's score in a video game go down. He'd still be among the richest people on the planet.
I'm just quoting him.
I know, I was just pointing out how, with the wealth he has, economic hardship just doesn't really happen for him in the same way it does for everyone else
"I mean, Elon Musk joked to me, and he has, I think, many times, that he's going to go to prison if Trump loses," Carlson said.
Elon, what have you been up to?! No wonder you're so fired up for Trump to win. Does this have anything to do with all those phone calls to Putin these past couple years? The ones that started around the time the Putin invaded Ukraine and you got put on the hook to buy Twitter?
Just some light treason.
Don't threaten me with a good time!
Pinky promise?
If Elon and Trump go to jail in 2025-2026 I will be the happiest person in the fucking world.
If Tesla collapses and the Tesla that I own becomes worthless I won't even care. Fuck Tesla and fuck Elon and fuck anyone Elon and Trump associate with.
We need to burn them all to the ground.
Not seeing a downside here...
Warns is the wrong word. Teases maybe? Entices? Titillates?
Wednesday you'll see Elon The Edgelord wearing that 'Dont Bully Me I'll Cum' shirt.
Elon is such a troll. I want to make it clear, I am not bullying Elon, because.. well you know.
I am! Piss baby South African needs to fall into depression and make sweet love to a running woodchipper.
Good news, everyone!
I don't see any downside with that.
Oh no... won't anybody think of the poor billionares??
"Warns" is usually used when it's a bad thing.
"Please, stop! I can only get so erect!"
Good.
A) That's false.
B) Even if it was true, I fail to see the downside.
As he honestly should. Dude's too high on his own supply.
Yeah, that's okay.
He is destroying himself. The law will continue to serve its function.
What's the angle here? He really thinks that a bunch of apathetic Republicans will go out and vote for Trump so that poor wittle Elon won't have to deal with the consequences of his poor business decisions? So weird. He's such a nut.
Musk has repeatedly said he's going to jail if Trump loses.
Tucker is commenting on that, saying his government contracts may be in trouble. Which should be true, Biden should have already pulled his clearances.
I don't think Kamala will, but she might.
When Musk talks about going to jail tho. I think it's because he did a lot of illegal shit Trump will pardon him for
Kamala should have run on this platform.
I'd pay to watch Kamala swath herself in a U.S. Flag and Homelander Musk straight to oblivion.
Good.
oh no the tragedy! I would only be sorry for SpaceX
Don't threaten me with a good time!
With nuclear demon fire?
Naw just the less serious 4 legged alarm clock demon scratches
And abortion hurricanes
