GOP news - Musk threatens senators who back trumps debt bill

Disagree. Those tax cuts were intentionally not made permanent when inacted, while the Corporate tax cuts were made permanent. These tax cuts were never meant to be extended beyond their expiration, by the way they wrote the tax cut and calculate future projected budget deficits.
Tough bounce....They're going to be made permanent, and keeping what's mine doesn't "give" me anything that isn't mine.
The cuts to MEDICAID is 100 % more than what is spent on any illegal here on MEDICAID, which is none or near none with few, if any, exceptions.

The Trillion dollar cut to MEDICAID affects legal Americans...and American citizens the most. The bill has no limit to just cutting monies so called illegals.
Where is the cut from a zero baseline?

Is less being spent next year than last year?
 
Tesla EV credits are a rounding error in Musk's growing world dominating empire
I don't know about that. If Trump starts going after Space X's and Starlink contracts, it is going to seriously affect Musk's bottom line.

Musk should have stood in his lane rather than flirt with politics. All it did was damage him.
 
You sure about that? The cuts to Medicaid involve reasonable work requirements and only making it available to people that are lawfully in the US.
It was tested in 5 states....the part on work requirements and the way they were required to report on it weekly or biweekly was so convoluted or burden some, that 4 out of the 5 State that participated in the test model, FAILED... and ended up eliminating qualified MEDICAID recipients....qualified American citizens.

Causing tons of health issues of not getting the medical care they qualified for and needed...life and death needed too! The States ended up having to hire and create a whole team of workers to help get their wrongly denied medicaid healthcare, reinstated.
 
You've got it backwards.

Cutting MEDICAID to 11 million needy American citizens, while handing $2 trillion in tax cuts out of the $4 trillion tax cut expense, to the very elite and wealthiest billionaires, is cruel.
Lies

Yes it's true, you don't know because you haven't projected out even slightly into the future of Optimus AI linking with Starlink, Tesla and X

Just think about that for a minute

You know what they say about the best-laid plans of mice and men.

Musk does have a far-reaching business model, but he seems to have lost sight of his ultimate goals. His foray into politics may have cost him.

You're sincere, I get that.

I think Musk is in the process of constructing an absolutely world spanning titanic enterprise.

Did you know that Starlink just offered their service to the US military as an alternative to GPS because it more accurate?

You may be right. Musk is on the vanguard of these technologies. I know that there are many, many people who agree with you.

When were these test performed and in what states? This bill hasn't been written long enough to adequately test the exact requirements outlined in the bill. This is just more fear mongering from Democrats and the MSM.

I’m not even saying it’s a good thing!

We’re not meant to be controlled by Techno Overlords

His PayPal partner Thiel believes in the Palantir, which in LOTR was working Evil. Plus Thiel gave an unbelievable stutter in a recent interview when asked about his support for the future of humanity
 
This is an abuse of power on the par
t of a rich man. Trump was happy when it worked for him. Now not so much.
Trumps bill is cruel but musk doesnt think its cruel enough.
There are no good guys in this story.

Will musk follow thru on his threats ? His credibility is not great nd its likely he will lose interest over the next year. His America party looks to be a pipe dream as well.
It would be easier if trump just gave him the perks that musk paid for.

There was a time when those subsidies were not warranted in our nation. At least to degrees. Musk does bring positives though. He may want more. We can now as an example get into low earth orbit because of him much cheaper. What we can do in many other enterprises in low earth orbit is slowly coming online. We compete with oppressive nations who do it cheaper from their ways with this. This means China.

When you say "cheaper" you are counting the billions the taxpayers spent to build the program.

He has no power to abuse.

So our LibTards keep telling us; although I'm not sure how many are listening to what they say any longer.

After getting bashed for repeated hand-salutes that closely resemble that Nazi salute... there's no future for him in politics.

Him believing that he can launch a political party and then be SUCCESSFUL in obtaining power is nothing short of delusional.

It would be easier if trump just gave him the perks that musk paid for.
Not gonna happen now... you insult the Dear Leader, you don't get any bennies...

Musk's real problem is that for the first time in his professional life he had to deal with a system that doesn't bend to his will automatically, that resists change as much as it possibly can, and relies on the support of others who agree with him partially and to differing degrees on different things.

He's used to being the CEO/Tech lead of vibrant cutting edge private companies full of people there to execute his will.

His less than 6 months of exposure to how bloated our government has become is a shock to him, and I am not surprised he is having issues dealing with it.

He thought it would be like going into one of his companies and righting the ship. Then he ran into congress, the bureaucrats themselves, the NGOs, The Blue State governments, and then the lawyers hired by them all.
