About a week ago, the Cheeto Benito announced that The Muskbrat was giving him $45,000,000 PER MONTH. Of course, it's a major election law violation to give that kind of money to a candidate, much less on a repeating basis, it has to go through a Pac or Superpac, and that's what was going on here.

And now The Muskbrat is walking back The Convicted Felon's claim. Apparently he gave $45mil to a superpac that focuses on get out the vote efforts supporting conservative causes, but will not be making that donation on a monthly basis.

Which is probably a good thing. Like our previous (and cannot be forgotten soon enough) president who demonstrated liquidity problems, it would be kinda embarrassing if he had to sell more Tesla stock to make recurring donations a reality.

Very much so, and the capitalists are generally favorable to the person who will openly let them pillage and rob, rather than the one who will do so, but might ask you to not do it so openly.
