You’re misreading the article if you think it shows Democrats are “warming” to Elon Musk. No one quoted in the piece says they like him, trust him, or think he’s a decent person. In fact, what it shows is the exact opposite: many Democrats are still deeply skeptical of him and consider his behavior and politics dangerous. What’s happening here isn’t about admiration or trust—it’s about strategy and necessity. They’re engaging with him not because they want to, but because they feel they have to, given his immense influence over major technologies like EVs, space infrastructure, and social media.
Take Rep. Robert Garcia, for example. He doesn’t praise Musk or suggest he’s come around to liking him. He says, “Musk has clearly gone down a right-wing rabbit hole,” and openly criticizes his platforming of extremists. The article quotes him as seeing Musk as someone who “lets people say hateful, violent, racist things.” That doesn’t sound like someone warming to him—that’s someone holding their nose while trying to work with him for practical reasons.
The same goes for the White House. Yes, they’ve met with Musk and engaged him in policy discussions, but that’s because he controls major assets that intersect with government priorities: EV manufacturing, satellite internet, space tech. Musk is essentially a utility at this point—a problematic one, but one that’s too entangled with federal initiatives to ignore. It’s not about warming up to him. It’s about needing him to cooperate because of the role he’s carved out for himself, not because anyone thinks he’s a good actor.
This is politics, not personal affection. Democrats engaging with Musk doesn’t mean they like him—it means they’re being realistic. They’re dealing with a man they see as dangerous and ideologically aligned with Trump, but who unfortunately holds keys to several important doors. The article reflects that tension. If anything, it paints a picture of wariness and pragmatism, not warmth.
Centrist democrats are already warming to him. Then again, they have been waiting for this moment ever since he performed his nazi salute.
Lol okay grandpa. Nobody is fucking “warming to him”
Ok, whippersnapper. What’s this, then?

Whippersnapper.
You’re rationalizing democrats’ opportunistic toadyism for a literal nazi.
I bet that means something in your head
I’m not a nazi so nothing I say makes any sense to you.
That’s pretty ironic, because I’m not a Nazi so that’s why nothing you’re saying makes sense to me
Ask your god elon, then.
Makes sense considering Cory Booker did the same Nazi salute and he is a centrist democrat
Got a video of that, buddy, where he hits his chest and then goes to a straight arm with no wave, twice?

🤣 you could just say you didn’t have the video of him striking his chest and doing it perfectly straight arm twice in a row.
Thanks for this, I needed a laugh
So funny you fall so easily for propaganda… actually it’s kind of sad
It looks like you’re trying to write in your diary, but you accidentally wrote this here in public. Whoopsie!
Typical brain dead leftist response
Typical brain dead Nazi response
Please don’t migrate to a new instance.
Oh christ.
