It looked like they were giving them away free.

I have friends and young relatives who idolize his brand.

Seems like the association between products and those who make them is missing.

But in just about every nation on earth, red is the colour of the workers, the socialists etc. Blue is representative of the so-called 'blue blood' of rich aristocrats.


When Republicans Were Blue and Democrats Were Red


Television’s first dynamic, color-coded presidential map, standing two stories high in the studio best known as the home to “Saturday Night Live,” was melting.

It was early October, 1976, the month before the map was to debut—live—on election night. At the urging of anchor John Chancellor, NBC had constructed the behemoth map to illustrate, in vivid blue and red, which states supported Republican incumbent Gerald Ford and which backed Democratic challenger Jimmy Carter.

The test run didn’t go well. Although the map was buttressed by a sturdy wood frame, the front of each state was plastic.

“There were thousands of bulbs,” recalled Roy Wetzel, then the newly minted general manager of NBC’s election unit. “The thing started to melt when we turned all the lights on. We then had to bring in gigantic interior air conditioning and fans to put behind the thing to cool it.”

Elon Musk @elonmusk

Biden is a damp sock puppet in human form (sock emoji).

If you scare people enough, they will demand removal of freedom. This is the path to tyranny.

Vote them out

Canadian truckers rule

CB radios are free from govt/media control

Society: Be yourself.
Society: No. Not like that.

Elon Musk called Biden a 'damp sock puppet in human form' after the president highlighted EV production by GM and Ford — but not Tesla

…. Musk is not new to criticizing Biden. He's torched the centerpiece of the president's domestic agenda, a climate and spending plan known as Build Back Better, mused that Biden is "controlled by unions," and joked that Biden was "still sleeping" when the White House didn't remark on Space X's historic, private space flight.

It wasn't always this way. Just after Biden was inaugurated, Musk gushed to Fortune that he was "super fired up that the new administration is focused on climate." But he has lamented America's de-facto gerontocracy, calling for an age limit "just below 70" that would have disqualified Biden and former President Donald Trump.

The world's richest man was clear when he disagreed with Trump, too. He called out Trump's character in 2016, saying he wasn't fit to be president. Musk, like many in Silicon Valley and the broader business community, was also outraged over the Trump administration's decision to exit the Paris climate accords.

But he would also defend Trump at times, too. ….

a "pedo guy"?



Actually he showed his true colors when he promised "Battery Swapping" years ago. He lies, cheats and steals.

He's one of the most despicable humans to ever walk the planet.
