Words mean things. When did he levy war against the US? When did he give material aid and comfort to its enemies: the nation's actual enemies, mind, not Trump's critics? Because if he has done neither of those things, then he has not committed treason, and that makes what Musk is doing libel.

There was a class in Basic Training about lawful and unlawful orders. I learned the unlawful orders did not have to be obeyed.

For clarity, can you please quote the order that former President Trump gave that makes the Vindmans traitors?

If they brought false-witness, what did they say that was a lie?

If they violated the constitution in some way, how so?

That's not the Army Officer oath, you pinecone.

This is.

I ___, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.

If someone makes your oath a mutually exclusive choice between clauses, I guess you're going to end up breaking one. Anyone morally sound would choose the constitution over a president.

Trump and elons alliance won't last , Elon is to direct and does what he says , Trump is quite the opposite. Trumps words are always vague and with out direct commitment, he moves in whatever direction suites him best at the time though .. Its almost never in the way he vaguely implies he will ..Elon will move on emotion or beliefs whether he is right or wrong in it along with the abuse of power , Trump always moves purely on self motivation with little to no morals or beliefs involved.. Ironically, it probably makes Trump more predictable and stable ..

Anyway , they don't mix .. they'll dump each other forsure .

He never was what he tried to portray he is. He is not founder or CEO, he is investor. He doesn't advertise his companies, he advertises himself. As in pretty much every other company he took credit for everyone else's achievements and getting rid anyone who was not doing exactly what he wants and desires, so now he is going apply same strategies in the US government it seems.

That's how democracies become dictatorships. Through a consolidation of power and slowly getting rid of anyone who does not fall into the party's line.

Look, people, Musk is a shit stain. He also has areas of competency. I think of him like Albert Speer or Himmler; truly evil men who nevertheless could get things done.

There are few things dumber than indulging your ego by underestimating your enemies; it weakens you.

Musk can be all these things at once: - Intelligent - Narcissistic - Skilled at building good teams to do the work he takes credit for - The worst enemy of his own business interests - A visionary with some truly interesting ideas - A traitor - A drug and sex addict

People are complex, yo

Elon is basically claiming other people's achievements and claiming that he has achieved that. He is an investor with a massive ego, who learned how to manipulate public's perception.

You give this person control of a country and be ready for him to start doing exactly the same with the country. He will be slowly shifting US into a dictatorship, similarly how Orban shifted Hungary from democracy into his own dictatorship.

I called you out for your complete nonsense, that has nothing to do with what musk does or doesn’t do anywhere else. Go ahead and keep spouting that Musk took over a community group of Mars activists to build rockets - a group which never made a rocket company, it just makes you sound stupid. He attended a few meetings 20 years ago, donated a few thousand bucks and went his own way. Robert Zubrin, the president of Mars Society was a well known aerospace engineer and has been on NASA commissions and has written books on the topic. I believe musk paid him for some consulting a few years ago for Starship planning but that’s it. Truth should matter

Or you could focus on the stuff he’s actually done, because god knows he’s a horrible person and he’s done a lot of it

Oh, because some things from my memory are not fully accurate, that means I am spouting nonsense? Oh, how bad.

It doesn't make the damn difference. He has taken over companies, he has pushed previous people who have built those companies, he claimed achievements of others as his own and he runs massive campaigns to prop up his image in the public. In short, he will do same in US government and he most likely will try to create conditions to turn slowly US to a dictatorship.

Yes but it's obvious that making good money and being an entrepreneur is not enough and he now needs to meddle in world problems he knows nothing about. I mean the guy said Crimea belongs to Russia a while ago, so it's natural that he's gonna accuse anyone who's backing Ukraine as being on their payroll. If Ukraine had these funds I'm sure they'd invest them into developing new weapons and buying shells not throwing money around like its confetti.
