Interview between Musk & Trump - 8/12/24

It's crazy how there's NEVER any mention of the debt or slashing spending.

They talked about what Javier Milei is doing in Argentina and how that should be done here and Trump agreed and the department of education should be eliminated and returned to the states.

What channel was that on? I heard Elon squeeze it in but Trump didn't elaborate on specifics, certainly not anything that would really matter.
 
okay, but not as great as I anticipated

I was disappointed they didn't get into the first amendment - censorship and the fascist behavior happening in the UK, but that's me. I would like to hear Trump express his view of what's happening over there.

Musk made a brief attempt to explain to the masses why inflation happens, which I think is important. Musk talked a bit about the debt, but Trump's talk, for the most part, just seemed like he was reiterating stuff from his campaign.

Also Trump's mic seemed bad and made his ability to pronounce Ss clearly sound poor - like he was old - not his norm. I had several different streams going at different times and some were worse than others.

Musk says there were 73 million views, but that when you include others who streamed it, it was close to a billion.

Will be interesting to hear who tries to arrest and/or sue Musk today over the conversation and what kind of premise they concoct to do so.

3/4 of the way through... so far every single thing is Biden/Harris fault, and even said that Obama is to blame for the cost of Air Force One.

88,000 IRS agents... many assigned to get "waitresses and caddies".

Not a single mention about Ending the Fed or reigning in corporatist lobbyists.

20 million immigrants... have contagious diseases, from jail, prisons, mental institutions, insane asylums, terrorists, murderers, drug dealers [wow, what a blanket statement]. The heads of countries are sending them. Zero, nada, nothing at all about our tax dollars funding the NGO's and trafficking them in. I'm so scared, maybe we should Bill Gates the worlds entire population and get ahead of the next Los Angeles Olympics!

IOW, basic boiler plate R vs D.


Though he wasn't preselected and not allowed anywhere near the general ballot, at least Ron Paul educated the people who listened during his runs.

Uh huh. And Ron Paul never expected to win. I don’t even think he wanted to.
 
Could that have been some sort of filter snuck-in to make him "slur/lisp" like that? He never talks like that! Odd.
As soon as I heard it, I knew his opposition would hone in on it.

Winning an election is not the solution. Ron Paul knows that it goes well beyond that. Because he is actually principled. You still didn't listen to Ron's secret message, did you lol.

Hate to burst your bubble, but some of the people around here really don't seem to give a damn about what Ron Paul talked about in this speech starting at about the 35:48 time stamp:

The message failed, liberty movement failed, Freedom is not popular, don't even have a competent leader to carry the mantle, Rand is MIA. We have to make progress where we can and minimize loss of freedom.

Well, that starts with you. Carry your own torch. I myself am not going to support anybody who openly wants to violate my rights [outlined in the Bill of Rights]. Lesser of evil is still evil, and I don't bend.
 
Thank you, Joe Btfsplk.

A billion people heard DJT and Elon Musk discuss eliminating the department of education and returning it to the states.

When is the last time Rand talked about that or promoted it? Failure!
Rand could have courted Elon Musk and had a 2 hour liberty discussion viewed by hundreds of millions. Failure!
Rand could have ran in the presidential primary or promoted a liberty candidate alternative, yet he did nothing. Failure!
Rand could have attended the Republican National Convention and promoted liberty ideas and goals, and influence the next administration, yet he did nothing. Failure!

If you don't like Trump, thats fine. But if you won't even hold the people you do like accountable for their inaction, ineptitude, and incompetence, that rain cloud is over YOUR head, not mine.

Rand Paul has been promoting it constantly for at least fourteen years. Trump was actually in a position to close it for four years and didn't lift a finger. Whose failure? Which now wants to create American University and "replace" the federal ED with something with direct control over colleges?

Rand could have courted Elon Musk and had a 2 hour liberty discussion viewed by hundreds of millions. Failure!

People don't ask to be interviewed by people, especially Elon Musk. Did Rand Paul refuse an invitation or did Musk fail to invite him?

Rand could have ran in the presidential primary or promoted a liberty candidate alternative, yet he did nothing. Failure!

And after having failed, I don't blame him for deciding not to ask his fans to give again, just to discover Trump is still sucking all the oxygen out of the room.

Rand could have attended the Republican National Convention and promoted liberty ideas and goals, and influence the next administration, yet he did nothing. Failure!

Wait, you think Rand Paul won't have any influence over the next administration? Or are you just whining because he didn't gain that influence the conventional way, by going to the party hierarchy and kissing ass?

If you don't like Trump, thats fine. But if you won't even hold the people you do like accountable for their inaction, ineptitude, and incompetence, that rain cloud is over YOUR head, not mine.

What Rand Paul is doing in regard to Trump's official Fauci and getting to the bottom of Operation Warp Speed is enough to earn his pay, as far as I'm concerned. On the other hand, the fact that your mileage undoubtedly varies isn't my concern.

Getting rid of the Department of Education apparently is something Trump said he would do.
