Summary
Elon Musk, having endorsed and campaigned for Donald Trump, is now acting as a “shadow president,” advising on policies and personnel, and joining Trump on calls with world leaders.
This unprecedented relationship between the world’s richest man and the leader of the free world raises concerns about the influence of wealth on government.
While both Trump and Musk have incentives to continue their partnership, their volatile personalities and differing expertise may lead to a breakup in the future.
I have to age my self and say that I am a year younger than the end of the Regan precidency…
But I can distinctly remember people in the 90s gushing over wanting to have green cards, and getting hand made dolls and dresses from America.
And if I reflect on recent history, Nixon probably did more than Regan did to turn the helm of the ship strictly towards all the icebergs
I really like your comment, but I think Trump did what the other bafoons couldn’t. Get normal people not interested in politics to understand this point. And thus both our comments have merit
Reagen deregulation our public airwaves and got rid of the rules about how many tv snd radio stations that a single entity could own. This directly led to media corps like Sinclair buying up most stations in many markets and forcing their ness to carry their propaganda.
We need a new Fairness Doctrine for the digital age. That was specifically a guard abaoponst this shit, and Reagan did away with thst too. In fact, Reagan imple,ended 2/3 of the Heritage Foundation’s policy recommendations in Project 1981.
Thanks, I hadn’t read up anything about Regan before, to me he was just the joke unbelievable actor turned president that made it harder for Doc Brown to believe Marth McFly had traveled back in time.
(Note: I’m not American)
Was project 81 similar to project 25? This heritage foundation sounds like a pedofile ring
The Heratige Foundation outs out a Projext XXXX every 4 years with policy proposals. They’ve been ratfucking us for 50 years to get their loyalists in place. All 6 partisan Supreme Court justices are Federalist Society. But getting rid of the Fairness Doctrine and removing the restrictions on TV and radio ownership was their idea so they can spew non-stop propaganda thays hard to get away from. I honestly believe it was a huge factor in this election.
After having an eye on American news stations every election year since Obama…
Right wing media: the left side is insane.
Left wing media: both sides are equal
I didn’t understand why, before I understood who earns money when you watch the news
The problem is that there isn’t really a left-wing ,ecia. There are centrists like MSNBC or CNN, right-Wing like Fox News, and hard right like OAN or Newsmax.
I get what you are saying. Like when Bernie Sanders lead the polls by a huge margin, and MSNBC was like “he’s not leading enough, he will fail”
Of course no one will vote for him if you tell them their vote won’t matter…
