Billionaire compares Minnesota governor to clown emoji: ‘Saving the American people from the torture of hearing you speak for four years was worth it’

Elon Musk went on a late-night attack against Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz after he called the billionaire a “dips***” during a rally in Madison, Wisconsin.

“Elon’s on that stage, jumping around, skipping like a dips***,” Walz said on Tuesday, referring to Musk as former President Donald Trump’s “running mate.”

Musk initially appeared alongside Trump during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, the site of the first assassination attempt against the ex-commander-in-chief less than two months previously. The videos of the billionaire jumping on stage when Trump called him up quickly went viral.

    The problem with Perot/Stockdale wasn’t Stockdale, it was Perot. He was nuts. He would have been almost as bad as Trump. His understanding of the economy wasn’t much better either.

      Perot did have a stronger charts and graphs game than mister Sharpie, though.

      Also, as bad as a Perot presidency might have been, he wasn’t openly hateful like Trump, nor as obsessed with breaking the system if the results didn’t go his way. It was kind of a Diet Populism.
