For emphasis they landed this back onto a pair of metal arms from here, in space.

This would be like ripping Chad for fumbling a few 6's after he fucked Megan Fox in her prime and [insert whoever else of noteworthy fame and sex appeal] just because he fumbled some chicks afterwards in a different scenario he wasn't completely familiar with

SpaceX has seen 3 Starship launches in a row blow the F up,

Space X also landed a 20 story skyscraper of a rocket back on a pair of metal chopsticks straight out the sky, multiple times.

After the first iterations blew up. They keep trying new things, which predictably fail, And then they succeeded on later iterations. That's how ingenuity typically works.

Teslas self driving cars also had problems when they were first developed. Now they are on the streets. That's how ingenuity works.

Are there other inventors in History we should retroactively rake over the coals for their failed initial attempts?

I hate to say this but you are aware special government employees are only allowed to work for 130 days or so right?

Musk couldn't stay any longer

@Typo-MAGAshiv Message received: I can't rebut this with facts, so here's an emotive response.

I come to expect this from conservative associates channeling Fox News talking points. But it never ceases to disappoint me when Manosphere folk do it.

@MentORPHEUS I don't have enough time to go line-by-line to rebut so much bullshit, so for the moment I'll just say the following:

1) you continue to earn your moniker of MSNBCorpheus

2)

have some vcards!

It's official now, there's come a three way break-up between Trump, Elon Musk, and DOGE.

Trump rather quietly ghosted Musk, not mentioning him in his infamous tweets or on Truth Social

DOGE proved wildly unpopular with middle America GOP and even MAGA identifying voters, who absolutely hammered their representatives so badly in their local districts that the GOP took a position to "Stop holding town hall meetings with your constituents." Turns out that arbitrarily slashing Government services that address the needs of large swaths of average Americans while giving massive tax cuts to your fellow Oligarch class members makes a turd that Trump's "charisma" can't polish.

Musk has gone from extremely popular to a pariah in many sectors. Even the board of Tesla started working on a plan to disconnect him from the company after his antics resulted in Tesla sales plunging more than 80% in many markets and harming the brand so badly that a guy got rich selling bumper stickers reading words to the effect "I bought this before Elon lost his mind."

His treatment of his own children and numerous baby mommas landed quite badly with the large "Family Values" segment of GOP voters.

His attempt to literally buy votes and judges in Wisconsin backfired badly; they lost by around 80% in that race.

He tried to change the backend of his AI to promote and push the idea of "South African White Genocide" and the AI basically told on him. MAGA voters are questioning his push to invite white South Africans to move to America and get exclusive fast track citizenship. This cohort claims to be victimized farmers, but looking at them, they appear mostly a bunch of fat fucks who have never picked up a hoe or sat on a tractor in their entire life.

SpaceX has seen 3 Starship launches in a row blow the F up, causing the FAA to become more and more restrictive about improving launches. Now spaceX has told residents in their "Company Town" that they may not get to develop or use their properties as they wish or planned with a drastic change in zoning laws there.

Some say that Musk is so far into Ketamine abuse that he's lost control of bladder function. This is the only claim I'm making here that falls in the class of not yet proven rumors.

Over the last 6 months, Elon "Top 0.01%-ed" too close to the sun, hurting his own image, and that of everyone around him, so badly that the GOP kicked their former darling to the curb in the past month.

I'm calling it now: President Trump's mental acuity has diminished to a point where he's unfit to perform the duties of his office. When speaking, he rambles, repeats irrelevant talking points instead of responding to questions, and makes opposing claims one sentence apart. He does not meaningfully engage even softball interviewers. He uses preschool level deflections of blame. He doesn't appear to understand the definition of a Trade Deficit or a Tariff.

Look at this transcript, and tell me during what part of this interview would you consider his performance "sharp" by any metric? Quick excerpt:

KRISTEN WELKER:

When does it become the Trump economy?

PRES. DONALD TRUMP:

It partially is right now. And I really mean this. I think the good parts are the Trump economy and the bad parts are the Biden economy because he’s done a terrible job.

What is a reasonable upper limit for "He's ONLY been in office for X number of days!"
