Richest Man In The World tells country: you need to suffer!

And does this in support of Trump. 7 days before the election. When it won’t win any support, or likely cost any support. Although following hot after MSG, it’s bound to hurt. 

As well as mark him as truly and incredibly stupid.

While previous leaders have avoided openly endorsing policies that might hurt working Americans, Musk’s comments reveal a different approach, where short-term pain is not only acknowledged but welcomed. Critics argue that this plan—prioritizing austerity over growth—could destabilize the economy and deepen inequality, impacting essential services for millions of families who rely on public support. But Musk and Trump’s perspective appears to frame these hardships as collateral damage in a broader strategy for “long-term prosperity.”

Elmo just thinks he’s saying the quiet part out loud. He also thinks that makes him “disruptive,” and clever. Like Project 2025, however, he’s going to find out why it’s called “the quiet part.” And why you don’t say it out loud.

Meanwhile, under the Biden-Harris administration, the U.S. economy has seen record growth. This month, The Economist called the U.S. economy "the envy of the world" amid historic growth, low unemployment, and the lowest inflation of any nation in the G7. The major stock market continue to hit record highs on a near daily basis. Yet Trump and Musk want to replace this prosperity with pain.

Can’t imagine why that wouldn’t be popular. Especially at the 11th hour.
