Trump praised programs that allow foreign workers to travel to the US for jobs many on the far-right have argued are being stolen from American citizens.
And lo, America realized the foreign Nazi techbro had control of the whole country once he had the leader chosen by the neophytes and bigots cucking for him.
People such as those here on Lemmy probably did long ago. Meanwhile, most of the right is totally asleep on matters of labor rights and the class war (being conducted ON them).
I mean, he literally did. Are you forgetting the part where Musk was straight up buying votes in swing states? It was all public corruption, the U.S. just isn't doing shit about it.
Pretty neat little conspiracy. Musk tells Don, I can rig it, Don takes the deal, monkey paw outcome: Musk blackmails Don with proof of cheating. I don't know how plausible it actually is, but it's interesting as a story.
I’m betting that President Elect Musk pulled some election BS and is holding it over Taint Maid Trump’s head for leverage.
This might have been a believable conspiracy theory eight years ago during Trump's first term, but we live in 2024, where twice-impeached and convicted felon Donald Trump won reelection. I can't imagine there's any dirt that can actually harm him at this point. He doesn't need to seek anybody's approval, and nothing he ever does can come back to hurt him. He's a king now and people need to come to grips with that new reality. Approval ratings mean nothing. Censures mean nothing. Impeachments mean nothing.
If I were Trump and somebody had dirt on me, I'd say "Go ahead and tell them. I'll come out and tell them that it's true and that I was smart to do it. And then they'll love me even more for it and they'll make you public enemy number one for going against me."
First, Acting President-Elect Musk kicking the Maga-Brains in the balls with his H-1B dreams, now Good Little Boy Trump biting at Bannon. I love them coming apart like that. Let the fight begin!
It's going to come down to moneyed interests, I think. How they keep the racist interests happy is the real question.
They are going to need some major distraction for the people that will not benefit by and/or be actively harmed by H-1Bs taking American jobs...I just wonder what it will be. It was a pretty big mistake for Musk/Bannon to give away the job-stealing game so publicly. It's like they are rubbing magabrainz noses right in it by this public slapfight. The magabrainz are not really known for their long-term memory, but this is really close to home for a lot of jobs and it was in the headlines for days....I bet more than a few remember and so MurdochCo is going to need one helluva distraction to keep their minds off of this, most especially if they do lose their jobs and/or have a hard time getting a new job with similar compensation due to the H-1B scam.
The ultra-rich in his base, whether they are racist or not, are most likely delighted by the prospect of destroying American jobs.
Bleh, not loving this. Flooding the place with indentured servants is not going to go well for this country or for Americans.
However, maybe it WILL wake a few BothSiderists and maybe even a few of the magabrainz....donvict is not that into you and he does not GAF about you or your livelihood.
