republicans remain cautious about directly confronting Musk, who spent $288 million supporting GOP candidates in 2024 and threatened to fund primary challengers against opponents.

There are systems to fund political campaigns that don’t involve kissing the boots of one billionaire. Systems that would allow these politicians to actually feel free to more closely represent their constituents. But I don’t see the current crop of politicians wanting to really work too much, they would rather sell their soul to one man and then impotently complain about it.

It’s an idealized world that was created by ad agencies to sell shit to people.

It still baffles me that the party that wraps itself in the American flag and calls themselves “Patriots” seem to have no problem what so ever in letting a non-elected immigrant run the country.
