No, I mean it.
This isn't news, this isn't politics. It's gossip and trash. It doesn't belong in front of anyone's eyes.

I mean, John Mulaney is right. We do have to keep tabs on the state of US politics, even if only for our own personal safety, and even if it's just become a trashy reality show.
The fact is, Musk falling out with Trump probably carries real, practical ramifications for what will happen to us and our institutions.
Not only that, if we can get Trump to abandon every one of the people who have his ear by simply shouting that they're the actual president, we can keep him from listening to more competent villains than himself. President Musk here is showing us how long it takes for that to happen.
We gotta stop giving clicks to media playing TMZ with the government
Maybe you can start by not making your government a trashy reality TV show? The media is pulling a TMZ because there's trashy gossip in the government. If you fix your government there's nothing to TMZ.
We’re gonna get this stupid article every week and people will think there’s hope, while the real operators hollow out the government in stealth mode.
I’m confident that Musk has seen Trump’s dick. Not that he’s touched it. Not that it aroused him. But he’s definitely seen it.
"Surely it doesn't look that much like a mushroom, does it?" -- "It does, and don't call me Shirley kekek 420 moyase"
You mean to tell me when two egomaniacs enter the same room, they have a problem with one another?????????
While Musk aligns with Trump’s policy goals, his assertive behavior and proximity have irritated both Trump and his advisers.
Expected behavior for a newlywed insecure husband - has to establish dominance in the relationship and can't leave his new trophy wife alone.
And Trump can't do anything about it since he bankrolled his campaign.
Well he can really legally kill him when he's in power.
Chancellor trump better stop complaining about king musk, or he will stop giving him all those wheelbarrows full of money.
I don't think he needs money much now that he's won the election.
That donvict fella better be careful what he says about the President.
Elon Wormtongue
While I like the comparison, that's giving Theoden over there a lot of credit.
Theodonnie is a different king who rules over Brohan, where Sauron sends mentally unstable/incompetent orcs to live out their lives in misery
maybe if he stopped sucking his cock he would go.
You mean President Musk?
Jester Trump complains about King Musk?
I think if we're honest with ourselves, we all knew a kid like Elon growing up; over eager, trying too hard to be liked, yet full of bad ideas and bad ideologies, clingy, desperate, selfish, braggadocious to cover for their own insecurity, and totally socially unaware, not realizing that they're not hiding any of it.
Now he grew up and acquired enough money and power to make it impossible to ignore him. This will be hell.
Private? trump doesn't even shit in private. Everything he does is meant to go public.
LOL! This is exactly what I expected. Xelon & Fat Donnie are literal twins. They will drive each other off the deep end, they are scamming each other, so the blow out is going to be epic. In the end they will turn on each other, as it should be. The more they fight with each other, the less damage they do to America. We need to celebrate every time this subject comes up and make fun of them. Post your memes, they HATE it!
Why does Elon look like an orangutan though. 🦧
Trump isn't wrong here.
