Just an American with immigrant roots scraping together a weeks pay to support a candidate he believes in. Ahh, democracy. Citizens united in purpose.
Citizens united
I see what you did there
He spent a lot more than that. Twitter was $44B.
didn’t the saudis fund some of that?
Yeah, they gave him about $2b for some stock / equity in Twitter / X.
There was also the cost of running twitter. Granted, his return so far has been about 50 bil and twitter still has a market value of like 40 billion, so it’s not like that asset has gone away. Like 4 billion in net costs to make 50 billion in two years is pretty solid return on investment…
Here’s some perspective.
That’s only 1/1500 of his net worth.
It’s the same as someone worth $50,000 spending $750.
Most of us worked harder to buy our mattresses than Elon worked to buy the election.

Money equals speech.
Elon just has a whole lot of it.
Musk has a lot of purchasing power - which would be fine except people keep giving him actual money in exchange for it.
200 million examples of free speech, according to the Supreme Court.
Geez. I did the math 🧮 That’s like $60 for us regular people. WTF 🤬
Edit: I thought he was worth more. It’s more like $75.
Oh, so someone has shown that you can buy yourself a carte blanche in the US government for about the price of a medium sized building in larger capital cities?
This bodes well for America from now on, what interesting times you’ve made for yourselves
Woohoo $0.50/person in the USA, to fuck them all.
Quite a bargain to buy a
