Oh no! Elon lied? No one expected this, how is this possible? He’s such a reliable and honest man. /s
You deserve not being paid when you have your vote bought by a nazi scam artist for just $100. But you also shouldn’t deserve the right to vote when it can be bought, especially for just 100 bucks.
Elon really hoping that he can skate by without legal consequences as long as he just pretends he didn’t actually bribe voters.
Think about it though, he didn’t pay them. He can easily spin a story about how he was ‘caught up in the moment’ and made an offer without thinking, that he was later advised would be illegal.
Idk, I feel like I’ve seen crazier legal turnarounds in my lifetime. Imagine he references the purchase of Twitter as a pattern of behavior making offers that he isn’t actually prepared to fulfill?
They sold their votes to a con man and are surprised they didn’t get paid?
Really?
Elon Musk: “hahaha, suckers”
Yeah no shit.
Paying them would be illegal
Conning them isn’t.
Well, it’s still illegal. Just with a considerably smaller penalty
Penalty?
It’s more like a processing fee :)
This is hardly the first presidency that was bought.
That crowd loves grifters and con-men. That Trump crowd acts like peasants just to get close to the proximity of wealth.
“The leopards would never eat my face!”
To all the comments and replies asking Isn’t this or that aspect of what he did illegal?: Yes of course, for us it would be illegal, but it doesn’t matter. For oligarchs the legality of anything they do is irrelevant. They do whatever they want and get away with it. Sometimes it costs them a small fee, but they don’t notice that.
GTFOutta here! Seriously!? I am shocked.
SHOCKED!
I hope Musk accuses them in court of entrapment. I wanna see the rich moron try to outsmart the poor morons. Everyone will lose, but it’ll being some levity to our death-knell.
It’s never gonna see a court room, unfortunately
THIS COMMENT IS IN ALL CAPS
Because of course he wouldn’t pay up. The man could literally afford to take more money than any one person could ever spend in their life, put it in a pile and set it on fire, and not be any more than a fraction of a percent poorer, but he’s still such an unfathomably awful cunt that he just has to stiff people anyway.
100 dollars? yall sold the usa for 100 dollars?
yall sold the usa for 100 dollars?
Consider that Trump had something like a 47% approval rating on the day of the election.
Also, yes. People are broke af, hate their neighborhood, hate their country, and hate everyone who has governed it since JFK. If someone offered you $100 for a pile of shit, you’d take the deal, too.
The joke of it all is that they believed a career con-artist would pay out, not that they gleefully pawned the broke down jalopy of a nation-state at the first opportunity.
Do not think for a second that they won’t try to do it again.
To be fair, I’d hate my life, too, if I lived next to a bunch of MAGA morons.
It’s one democracy, Michael, what could it cost? 100 dollars?
If you don’t pay it’s actually 0 dollars!
And didn’t even get the money up front.
Buddy. That is like 5 BJs.
It goes to show how dumb people are
All you have to do is wave some money around in their face and make promises to them
… and they’ll do whatever you ask them to do … then when all is said and done, you can just walk away and never give anyone anything.
Then they’ll fall for it again in a couple of years 😭
They would if there were elections again.
But they’ll probably just make the enemies list to be silenced sooner than the rest of us.
💰 This could be yours!
I believe you owe me some money
No, I checked. Turns out it was mine, not yours.
Maurice: ‘To my right, heh, to everyone’s right in fact, we have congressman Alex Shrub; the youngest state congressman to ever be elected by Vice City and now a respected man in the capital. Mr. Shrub got elected because he has great hair and says things that make you nod your head. His campaign appealed to the wealthy because he set all of us at ease by confirming, “It’s okay to be rich, as long as you say you care about the children.” Mr. Shrub, welcome!’
Alex: ‘That’s not entirely true, Maurice. My campaign also appealed to the poor… who were too stupid to understand what I’m saying, so I held up pretty pictures and then I gave out candy bars to appeal to their most base insticts.’
