Deport Elon to El Salvador. Then let DOGE defund the prison program accidentally, because they don’t understand why the El Salvadorian prison system is subsidized by the US.
Just didn’t deport him to Canada, El Salvador would be fine. Or you know launch the middle of the Atlantic would be ok.
Canada isn’t a real country anyway and if they make it the 51st State they will have to deport him again.
good point, south africa has to take the hit on this one.
Not sure if I want to be happy about this or not. I guess it depends on what country he would go to. He will probably go to another country where he can abuse the system to pay fewer taxes than the rest of us.
Russia? 🙊
I guess it depends on what country he would go to.
El Salvador surely.
He’s lying and everyone knows it. There’s no chance of them deporting Musk. They want to get a lot of money from a lot of billionaires and if they go in attack mode on those large-scale donors, no one is going to throw money at them anymore.
They also want billionaires to know that is a bad idea to turn against them.
Imagine spending $250m dollars to get deported. It would be awesome if he was sent back to South Africa.
He’s Canadian through his mother.
We’d just get stuck with him.
He already said Canada isn’t a real country. They have to send him in a real country. They can’t deport him in Canada and make Canada the 51st State and start over again.
Unless he gets sent to CECOT
He won’t be. Too rich and powerful.
I think there’s a very low but not zero chance because it really feels like Trump is trying to make Putin’s Russia here in the US. When the rich and powerful men start talking shit in Russia, they very quickly end up being not so rich and powerful.
Where’s that petition to revoke his citizenship at, anyway? Would be a nice elbow to the head.
Imagine spending $250m dollars to get deported.
As others have said: $43 billion. Elon bought Twitter.
Yeah, but he was forced to complete that transaction after he changed his mind.
TBF, proportionally speaking, it’s like me spending $20. I would not expect this amount to make a difference if it were me.
250M is nothing to this prick.
It is very expensive for their pride.
Those billionaires don’t actually have the money ready in cash, just a tiny part of that is liquid, everything is in stocks. They are getting paid in stocks from their company. Why? Because until you’re selling the stocks, for the government you don’t have a revenue to tax. Suppose this year you get a salary of $100 billion in stocks. If you convert in cash only $100k, then the tax owed that year is minuscule. Those assholes have teams dedicated to minimize the amount of taxes owed. It is why he didn’t use his money to buy xitter but used his stock and “genius CEO” fame as a collateral to persuade banks and other arab investors to lend the money for him (and hold the bag if it sank)
So in order to donate that quarter of a billion he had to liquidate stocks and pay taxes on that. Ouch, so so much painful for a billionaire. For them paying taxes is like being robbed. So, it’s more like paying $20k for you
While you are correct with all that, I would argue it’s not like paying half of all I have. Say your 20k is after 33% tax, that’d be 30k before taxes, our of the 50k I did my original math with.
It’s be like paying 30$ then, plus the “I’m rich and greedy so it hurts”, say 1k of physocological damage… Still a very small portion of what I have.
Hell, just in insurance, I’m paying way more than that every year!
Elon is a brilliant businessman. When he was only 12, he started his first business as a bridge troll. Now at…whatever he is, he’s being kicked out of a country he literally bought.
What about he gets half his money back and goes exactly half the way to South Africa?
That’s a funny way to spell El Salvador.
The rules don’t apply to the ultra rich. Even the horrifying rules.
Unfortunately.
I’m all for it. Can we kick all of the right wing media off twiter again.
There isn’t enough popcorn for this.
But Elon Musk is an ILLEGAL Immigrant. WHY would they Deport someone like THAT?
He’s been an American citizen for 23 years. Why the fuck does everyone suddenly think deportation is the answer to every crime. Just prosecute him.
EDIT: No idea why the other poster deleted it, but it’s too good to not put back up:
The glass is half empty
Whether that’s good or bad depends on what’s in the glass.
I recently heard a lecturer say that one may not rightfully know the cup they drink is poison, but that isn’t going to save them.
Like when Ted Cruz said that Trump “lies practically every word that comes out of his mouth”.
Ted Cruz actually nailed down Trump’s character better than any other politician.
Tbf that’s the joke about how to know when a politician is lying.
LIQUIDATE MUSK
I think you mean liquify.
They’re easily mixed up - liquidate means to convert assets into a form that’s easily transferrable, like cash on hand. Liquify means to convert Musk into liquid.
You said liquidate twice
Their brain liquidated while writing this
So I did - fixed.
You should take one more pass at it.
My God why was this so hard for me?
NOT FINANCIALLY
I hate this racist/fascist decrepit old fuck.
Jesus H Christ, I can’t keep up with this shit. I ran out of popcorn a few hours ago.
Breaking news.
Hard Core Nazi Steve Bannon calls for narcistic fascist Elon Musk to be deported immediately.
I’m awaiting Bannon to be deemed a criminal and also deported.
Like it matters where he lives. He can stir up shit from anywhere on the globe.
Sending him back to south Africa after all those white genocide claims would be a hell of a thing lmao
be right back, need to stock up popcorns.
If they are smart they will do it.
If Elon was smart he would leave the country.
If Elon were smart, he would’ve just shut the fuck up and quietly enjoyed his hundreds of billions of dollars instead of jumping headfirst into culture war to prove what a funny edgelord he is.
