head of six companies, including a major U.S. military communications contractor and a company that puts wires in paraplegics' brains, wants you to know that he considers filing fraudulent business records to be a trivial matter
I wish I could say that this statement makes me wonder whether his businesses may be driven by misrepresentation, but at this point I already think that. So no change, really.
For completeness sake, he's not only saying it's a trivial matter but suggesting that Important People (presumably including himself) should be able to dismiss such things.
tbf he has absolutely been consistent in this opinion over time. The question is not why do fans admire him anyways, it's what kind of grift got him the military contract or really do all military contracts these days routinely run on fake paperwork
I think he's also saying he assumes 'anyone' files false business statements - no biggie. I never did so I don't think this could happen to me. My guess is most people DON'T think this will happen to them.
This manchild just further proving my point that a majority of the rich have sold off their brain cells for their money because they come out and say the stupidest shit and not expect anyone to recognize it as such when it's obvious.
I guess he's too stupid to make the connection. That "trivial matter" threw the election to a fraudster who'd otherwise have lost. Trump then went on to create chaos and leave a path of destruction in his wake. It may take decades for this country to recover.
I mean, he has absolutely filed fraudulent business records, and is currently sweating through the SEC exploring the nooks and crannies of his colon that his head has not yet reached.
i made this same post on twitter and it took eleven hours for the first low follower count bluecheck elon fan to show up to shriek at me. makes you wonder what the point of buying the website was in the first place
But also, the crime Trump committed *effectively* was stealing the 2016 election. You can predict with a high degree of probability that had Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal's stories come out in October 2016, Roe v Wade would still be the law in the US. 100s of thousands fewer COVID deaths, etc.
"Yeah, it's not a big deal. I do it all the time and I'm the smartest and richest man ever! ... I'm being told by my lawyers that I have never fraudulently cooked any books of the 6 companies I 'run'."
It's crazy how two of the most unskilled, charmless, lazy wastes of space on this planet have such a cult following. What is the appeal of worshipping these scumbags?
Honestly I partially read this kind of thing the way you did here but I also feel like there's an implied threat of "if you shit-talk MAGA or nazis etc then we'll do this to you given half a chance"
Musk has been over-promising and under-delivering for 20 years now. At this point, why anyone would even give him the time of day completely baffles me.
And the severity of the crime was codified before anyone was convicted of the crime, much less someone who wants to return to the job of CEO of the worldโs largest economy and the leader of 340M people. But he tried to hide the gabagool nonetheless.
