Summary
Senator Bernie Sanders criticized “President Elon Musk” for opposing a bipartisan government funding deal that would prevent a shutdown and extend operations until March 2024.
Musk, a vocal Trump ally and proposed co-leader of a new “department of government efficiency,” called the bill “criminal” and misleadingly claimed it includes a 40% Congressional pay raise and funding for “bioweapon labs.”
Musk’s opposition, amplified through over 100 posts on X, has drawn Republican support and Democratic backlash.
Sanders condemned Musk’s influence, labeling it “oligarchy at work.”
I think you vastly underestimate the ego of a narcissist.
Like I said, he doesn’t seem all that eager to be in the public eye now. He’s not giving constant interviews or anything. I think he doesn’t have the stamina anymore.
He has no reason to be right now. He’s tired, but when what he views as his reputation (every narcissist has a weird internal way they calculate it) gets challenged, he will be out and about as lively as ever… he’s just too old to take adderall every day now.
Defeatist attitude is a self fulfilling prophecy, as long as they don’t totally silence the media, then he will be able to be manipulated by his own narcissistic ego… he does watch news more than he works, afterall.
The dementia is worsening, mayhaps
