New Meme: 'President Musk and VP Trump' [1]

['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

I can’t say I came up with it. That honor goes, afaik, to former Rep. Adam Kinzinger, who said it during a CNN interview. But the more I think about it, the more I love it. The inversion gets right at both the egomania and the profound unseriousness of both these men, reflecting the nature of their manufactured legislative support, as products of REDMAP’s apportionment abuse, and the subversive absurdity in saying it. Like two scorpions in a bottle.

This is ‘leadership’ in an electorate that has lost control of it’s Art I apportionment privileges. We ‘mark’ voters like crooked casinos mark cards, to take advantage of the ‘rubes. It’s criminal when they take our money. But too many look the other way when it comes to our votes. Now, they’ve gotten far enough since 2010, that they can fleece us out in the open, because the constituency the billionaire class manufactured with REDMAP, provided the institutional, legislative, support to overcome their unpopularity for public service. Before REDMAP, that support could not be expressed politically. Because district maps. Because a constituency manufactured using the metric of partisan Loyalty, is a constituency that doesn’t care about public Facts. ‘President Musk (a foreigner), and VP Trump (who just wants to be ‘loved’). Anyone taking bets on how long Musk lasts? Or has Trump met his match in real billionaire, Elon Musk?
