Why is Musk giving $45 million a week to Republican PACs?

There are two schools of thought:

(1) Musk is a machiavellian operator and with his money, the PACs will increase the scope of their message, a few of the PACs that have been identified are proponents of the 2025 project (aka.  Extreme right-wing policies, shut down the justice department, abolish federal taxes etc etc).   This will show Americans the extreme corruption of the American republican party.   

(2) Musk has a more pressing objective.   It is well known that almost all of his focus now is on SpaceX, and not on Tesla.   A large part of the GOP's platform is anti-Tesla, but if like with Twitter he no longer cares it means he is ready to sacrifice Tesla for a more important goal.   

In his tactical mind, Tesla will survive for at least a decade which is the time he needs to make his Mars mission a reality.   It is well known that Elon Musk has discarded projects in the past when he saw they were not going anywhere really useful.  Paypal is only one of thousands of payment systems now.   It is more than likely that Musk has decided, even if it is subconsciously, that sacrificing 300 million Americans to a dictatorship was an efficient way of achieving his goal, then his support for the GOP makes sense.  

Musk is concerned with the future of humanity, and not humans.  He has decided that our future is better assumed if we have two or three planets available.   For example, the recent discovery of massive caverns on the Moon is important. to building a moon colony

For someone like Elon Musk who had the ability and resources to change the world, the destruction of a single society is not even a consideration.  

Honestly, there is no way that Elon Musk doesn't see what Donald Trump and his friends are, but he may have concluded that transactionally the GOP will be better for SpaceX than the Democrats -- let's not forget that in 2022 the White House had a meeting of the "leaders of the electric car industry in America" and Tesla that accounted for nearly 80% of all electrical vehicles sold in the US, was purposefully excluded and that Ford that produced less than 1,000 electric vehicles was hailed as the hero.   For a person like Musk, it is a realization that the Democrats are even worse than the Republicans...

The end of Tesla?

 it takes a special kind of idiot, to think that he can antagonize his entire customer base, and think that it will not impact his business. When Elon Musk went to work for Donald Trump, and created the doge department, he antagonized every liberal, and these people represent 90% of his client base.That’s not a brilliant move. Now Elon Musk is worth hundreds of billions of dollar, so he shouldn’t care a great deal, however, he needs to care because of several other issues. The cyber truck has been a disaster, most have had to be recalled because of defective glue, it’s not a truck, it’s not a car, it’s noisy, relatively uncomfortable, but great as a development platform. What Tesla has learned in making car manufacturing more seamless is truly amazing. The problem was that Elon Musk was so pissed with the Democrats, and with Joe Biden, in particular because of some slight, which were just plain stupid too. By the way, that he decided to support with hundreds of millions of dollar, ...

Donald Trump‘s bad bargain

 The entire of 2023 and 2024 when Donald Trump was running for the White House, his mantra was no war, that the Ukraine conflict would be resolved in a day, and that he would do everything not to involve America and war. How the world has changed! He finds himself facing three conflicts; Ukraine, still going on almost 5 months after he became president. Gaza, an unspeakable crime against humanity, is obviously going to go all the way to its bitter end. And finally, Israel’s attack against Iran. It’s important to note, that Benjamin Netanyahu first indicated at the United nation that the Iranian were 3 to 5 years away from having the nuclear bomb. He made that statement in 1995. Therefore, no one is surprised that he uses the same two lines every so often. It’s entirely possible, that 30 years after he first announced it, that Iran has finally developed the bomb. It’s also remarkable that Iran, local power has been destroyed, from Yemen, to Syria, via Lebanon and Gaza to small exten...

TACO again, but worst!

 Donald Trump got the rare earth metals that he had thrown away on April 2, liberation day as he called it. What did the Chinese get in exchange? The whole deal, is on the wrap right now. But let’s be clear. It’s the Chinese that have the upper hand.Some of the materials made by the Chinese, are simply unavailable anywhere else. suspicions are that the Chinese got the high-end chips that they lost under Biden. Tariffs will probably return to the level of April 1, and in the end Donald and his friends got nothing for it. It gets worse, Chinese exports to United States are down 40%. The Chinese have found new markets, I probably never gonna buy American grain again. Once again, Donald Trump proved he’s a great negotiator. He got absolutely nothing for his Showmanship. He told the world, that everyone would come and kiss his ass, instead they’re laughing At him. There’s no joke about Donald Trump, a 25 and inherited a huge fortune and proceeded to make it a small one. Bottom line, the...
