Musk, the billionaire owner of X, formerly Twitter, and CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, joined Trump onstage in Butler on Saturday to show his support for the Republican and state that he is “not just MAGA — I am Dark MAGA.”

A number of people have mocked Musk’s appearance at the Butler rally on Saturday on social media, as well as criticizing his public speaking efforts.

    Dork MAGA. Price Is Right-ass motherfucker jumpin’ around like he’s gonna bid on a Broyhill bedroom set with fresh white sheets. Zooted the fuck out on ket, dancin’ around on stage like a 7-year-old with glioblastoma at his very own MAGA-Wish event.

      Amazing work. It’s remarkable how much he’s (proudly?) transitioned into the neckbeard meme. Severe untreated mental illness is so hot right now.

        I hate that people shit on the neck beard, im sorry my shit doesnt connect. I wish i had easy access to some extra testosterone like the trans community. Iove them, but they are so privileged getting t shots so easily. I want more beard growth, and testosterone does help. I used to rub the slight liquid from a friend of mine on my neck and cheeks trying tp promote growth.

          It’s more about the meme and less about the beard. He’s wealthy enough to look like anyone/thing he wants. But it’s funny that he chooses to look and act like that, and post on Twitter all day like a loser/troll.

          Btw i may be straight but I’ve sucked dick fucked a couple dudes and just found it wasnt for me. Not that im against it, guys are just assholes and i dont like that. Twinks though… thats where its at.

        I can hear all of the “Uhh” and “Ummmm” sounds that he makes every other word during a presentation.

        You can tell he’s been coasting on daddy’s money his whole life, because no way would I give this man $5 for anything with the way he presents things. If you can’t present your own product confidently, it makes people feel you don’t have confidence in the product.

        How he manages to get people to invest in things when even his investor calls sound like a 5th grader giving a report on a book they only read the summary of is beyond me.

          Being financially insulated from the consequences of their own actions via their wealthy parents seems to have an effect on stunting their emotional development prematurely. Trump and Musk are both sad losers with more money than sense.

            No Israel is. It’s a nation state not an ethnicity/religion. Israel attempts to conflate the two, but the rabbis marching against it and the long Jewish tradition of arguing over Zionism say otherwise.

      I mean, as much as it’s cringe it was cringe when Biden did “Dark Brandon”. I imagine this is a response to that not “we’re the villains” (even though they are)

        Dark Brandon was created as an evil representation of Biden that did evil things, like helping people. His supporters found this funny, because if this person where actually real they’d like him a lot more, so they spread memes of “Dark Brandon” supporting policies they liked. The Biden team saw this and started using it too, as a way to share actual good policies they were doing. Basically, it was an insult turned into a weapon.

        Musk doing this is skipping all that context and essentially just saying they’re the supposedly bad thing. Without actually saying why it’s good, it just sounds like you’re doing the bad thing —which they absolutely are, but shouldn’t want to own. He’s an internet edgelord who never understood internet culture and purchased a social media site. It’s sad.

        I think he might actually be worse off with a hundred billion pennies for the full billion dollars. Not only would dealing with that many pennies in one place legitimately be challenging, but having that percentage of the total pennies in circulation suddenly removed could be enough to get the US Government to reconsider deprecating them, leaving him with the bag.

        I say give him the full billion in pennies.
