Elon Musk is not spending $45 million a month to elect former President Donald Trump, though he has created a new super political action committee to fund the Republican candidate,” Fortune reports.

Said Musk: “What’s been reported in the media is simply not true. I am not donating $45 million a month to Trump.”

He added: “I don’t prescribe to a cult of personality.”

          True, but this also prevented the President Schwarzenegger timeline.

          While I used to joke about that a decade ago, in retrospect I think this would have been faaar better.

          There are practically no Republicans that actually give a shit about the environment, and while Arnold did make some cheeky quips at his opposition… I would greatly, greatly prefer a timeline where he, instead of Trump, or some corporate fuck or evangelical nutjob, is the face of Republicans after Obama.

      Luckily that shithead is constitutionally barred from running. He was born in South Africa.
      It’d be interesting to see the birthers from 15 years ago do a complete 180, though.

      But all he can achieve with the current constitution is the title of Oligarch and Chief Twat.
