Summary
MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell criticized Donald Trump’s Oval Office press conference with Elon Musk, calling it “the most powerless image of a president” ever.
Musk dominated the event—standing over Trump, speaking more words, and violating White House norms with his casual attire and child’s presence.
O’Donnell contrasted Musk’s influence with Trump’s past and present vice presidents, arguing that neither Mike Pence nor JD Vance would challenge Trump’s authority in such a manner.
Wormtongue has made himself very cosy in his new home it would seem.
I understood that reference… but Theodin was a good man
Piter an the Baron?
same actor for Piter and Wormtongue
Truth. This is more like having two Wormtongues trying to corrupt each other.
Wormtongue and Denethor, maybe.
Denethor was a good man.
Except, instead of having a crippling love for his son, this Denethor has a daughter he wants to fuck.
I don’t like this version of Middle Earth.
I’m sure the right wingers complaining about Zelensky not wearing a suit are incandescent with rage about Musks lack of decorum.
The same people who raged about Obama’s tan suit
Or choice of mustard.
Or choice of lettuce leaf.
Also, who wears a basebal cap and a T-shirt, and brings his four-year old who - like any four-year old - can’t shut the hell up in the oval office? I mean honestly, who is this guy? Just because he has money doesn’t give him the right to turn the presidency into a fucking daycare center. He could at least pretend to respect the institution a little bit…
The 4 year old is nothing more than a meat shield. Remember how right after the CEO shooting, Elmo started carrying one of his brood with him?
Like that would work in a country dominated by school shooters.
I feel bad for the kid being spawned by Musk though.
He’s one of, what, 10?
🤔
At this point th presidency is meaningless and vomitous anyway. I don’t care if they just start wearing wife beaters and golf shorts - they truly can’t bring the position or country any lower.
Just because he has money doesn’t give him the right
Gonna stop you there, friend, and remind you that this is America. Yes it does.
On the other hand, maybe the most sensible things might have come from the 4-year-old … Do we have an official statement from the child ?
P.S. : first time ever I’m not writing down the usual /sarcasmMusk Jr. would like it on the record that we need more candy and toys.
if only that was the only statements coming out of the White House, it would be the best one ever
Unironically would be better for our economy than anything his father has suggested
Now that’s unifying policies! Something everyone can get behind!
We kinda do, the kid basically said what sounds like parroting daddy with "they’ll never know evil toddler laugh’ when he overheard discussion of voting machines or some shit
“Out of the mouths of babes … comes words … of honesty of truth”
I don’t see any sarcasm here. That is a 100% factual statement.
I mean, he bought the presidency so….
I see two 4 year olds in this photo
Is that because the kid is 5?
Don’t forget Lil X!
3*
Weird how one CEO gets Luigied and suddenly it’s bring your kid to work day for president Musk.
Lol I think I can get behind Luigi as a verb
Star trek deep space nine spoilers
Their relationship is like grand nagus zek
and ishka. Ishka wasnt allowed to do business under ferengi law due to being a woman. So she got close to zek and was acting behind the scenes to help maintain zeks appearance during his mental decline.
Musk, being an illegal immigrant, wouldn’t have been able to be president directly. One difference being musk is clearly leading in the spotlight.
I understand this analogy.
I use arch, btw.
Speaking more words. Lmao.
i feel like “schmuck” needs to make a comeback in the vernacular.
Schmusk
label musk as alpha and trump as beta in this picture (not that I believe in those labels but they do)
Then post it all over x-itter like crazy… Don’t let it die… make this ‘a thing’
And then watch Musk have the conundrum as to whether to take it down or not…
His ego wouldn’t let him take it down, and make Donny Dump respond to it…
Wow, it has to be bad if it beats a tan suit. /s
Fucking love it when articles are specifically about a photo but they don’t post the fucking photo
it’s not about a photo
It literally is, i saw the photo in another article
Can you post the photo here?
Another article might have included a photo or photos, but the ‘image’ being referred to is the image presented by a person or situation. Which is described. It’s not about one particular photo
Musk America Great Again
Mock America Goodly Always
rump is such a bitch!
His DEI’s are bitches too! (don, eric, ivanka)
Poor kid is named X. What stupid assholes his parents are: he’s gonna have to bear that stupid name all his life.
Then again, he could have been called Twitter I guess…
$ man ascii | awk '/X$/ {print $7}' 88X is 88 in decimal? Musk’s obsession with that letter finally makes sense
I don’t believe he’s that smart.
No, but he would copy a Nazi programmer who pointed out that shit to him.
he’s gonna have to bear that stupid name all his life.
Now now… They could legally change it when they’re 18.
Except Republicans are pushing anti-trans laws to prevent people from changing their names. The current proposal floating around would prevent married women from voting because they take on their husband’s last name.
What proposal is that? I would like to spread the information if you have a link
Great reason to get rid of the dumb archaic practice in the first place. I repeatedly told my wife she shouldn’t feel any pressure to take my name. She did anyway, but I think it was just because she liked it more.
Anyway, sacrificing your ability to vote in order to take your husbands last name might have the oh so unfortunate side effect of keeping trad wives from voting.
My wife kept her name when we got married ten years ago. It has only caused minimal problems with bureaucracy.
Cuck
