He didn't fall, he did all the stuff Republicans really wanted to do but knew they'd be punished for electorally. If they push him out before the midterms and blame him for everything, they could limit the electoral damage by escaping responsibility. He'd be happy to take on the role of scape goat.

Sure, if you could convince the Democrats to actually act like the caricature Republicans paint them to be, that would be great.

If they ever fixed it, I'm sure Musk fired whomever is keeping score now. He's going to launch the robotaxi stuff soon and it's going to kill a bunch of people.

I still don't know if he's just stupid or if he's just doing what Putin wants by undermining NATO. I guess both could be true at the same time.

Yep, that one was purely about hitting a certain KPI of 'miles driven on autopilot without incident'. If it turns off before the accident, technically the driver was in control and to blame, so it won't show up in the stats and probably also won't be investigated by the NTSB.

Yep, they were fine with 'footing the bill for European defense' as long as enough members bought F35s and whatever other pointless toys the US produced. Only France basically stuck with producing everything domestically.

Trump never really understood what that unspoken part of the bargain really was about. If Europe is going to actually spend 2% of GDP, they're going to keep that money domestically as much as possible instead of sending all that spending overseas in dollars.

Whatever it is, it's unacceptable and they should really ban Tesla's implementation until they fix some fundamental issues.

  1. Self-driving turns itself off seconds before a crash, giving the driver an impossibly short timespan to rectify the situation.

Isn't leaving Cuba basically also running from your problems?

New college was basically a proving ground. They parachuted in Chris Rufo, and I'm sure they'll set up a commission or something that he can head to do the same things to other colleges that get Federal funding.

Everything Trump is doing is going to cost a fortune down the line if the US ever gets back to democracy and courts need to sort out everything the government did illegally.

And to me it appears like this has nothing to do with social security fraud, unless he's getting 400k checks every month. That's your run of the mill identity theft case.
