The Trump II cabinet so far: Tulsi Gabbard, RFK, Jr. and Elon Musk.
Can we shatter this bullshit about tech bros who struck it lucky with some early dotcom investment being geniuses?
I’m fucking tired of hearing about how these barely functional assholes who chanced into luck once are geniuses or in any way genuinely earned their wealth. They’re all fuck heads that spend most of their time trying to justify why they’re entitled to their lavish lifestyles…
In fact, can we just stop using the term genius? Some people are pretty good at some shit, but the elitism associated with that term is fucking toxic.
Elon inherited apartheid wealth and then got lucky in addition to that. He would have a fine life without his “investment genius” or how they call it.
You support me = genius. You don’t support me = asshole, woke, liberal, loser, commie, ect. Ass kissers at their best.
Genius = born into wealth
These pricks were both born on third base and think they hit a triple.
It goes beyond that and is largely related to the same anti-intellectual propaganda we have had shoved down our throats for decades (basically since reagan).
Think back to basically every single movie/tv show with a “smart” character. Invariably, they are “cool” and have anti-authority tendencies. And, invariably, there is a character who is a conventional nerd who is actually an idiot compared to this cool kid with an ice rink in their basement because they pronounced a word wrong or got a single question wrong.
And what has that done? It has raised generations of people to value “genius” over “smart” where someone who is quirky and weird is WAY more intelligent than the person who actually just sits down and reads things. THOSE people are losers.
And what does a balding techbro with hairplugs who has driven double digit companies into the ground have? That’s right, he thinks he is a living meme and thus must be a genius.

Had me until then, he has lots of bad qualities, the above isn’t one of them.
Only a Batchelor degree and college drop out. Genius seems to be a broad term nowadays.
Not even a STEM BSc IIRC.
Nope. And his degree was awarded after he stopped attending after a large donation by daddy. No one in the physics programs remembers Elon in class. Only official statement they will give since transcripts are not public.
Really? That means I’ve accomplished far more academically than this billionaire???
Bill Gates actually understand com sci
I would even say he had a good run of picking good ideas and making them work. But I think he’s too rich and crazy and out of touch now, he has lost his drive.

Do you have a source? We know it’s way down, but the only stuff I’d seen with real numbers was pure speculation. And none of them were as bad as dropping to 10%.
Looks like it’s not too far off if we extrapolate
Internal documents obtained by The New York Times show that, in the second quarter of this year, X earned $114 million in revenue in the United States, a 25 percent decline from the first quarter and a 53 percent decline from the previous year.
But the original numbers showed a 90% decline, so something isn’t apples to apples here.
Those were talking since purchase, which was further out than last year I think
That’s just at par with Trump. Bankrupt several casinos, businesses. Etc
If Trump wins, Musk will effectively have purchased a seat in the federal government. How democratic.
Just like trump’s last cabinet where he appointed people who donated large amounts of money to him.
This is flagrant corruption, or nepotism, or both, right?
“We don’t want the ruling elite telling us what to do just to enrich themselves! We want billionaires to run the government!”
I don’t have many braincells more than a typical Magoo but my God are they killing what I had left…
Having OTHER Billionaires in your Cabinet is EXACTLY how you Drain The Swamp and DEFEAT the Deep State!
Rich idiots failing upward, unite!
No black people? Not even Kanye?
Maybe one of them will become black like Kamala.
Elon is from South Africa, I rest my case.
Exactly, Trump probably thinks… “They keep telling I need more African Americans in my employ… I know! Elon is African American!”
Suddenly!
He’s shaping up to form a truly unique cabinet…
- RFK Jr - Secretary of Brain Worms
- Tulsi Gabbard - Secretary of Bullshit
- Elon Musk - Secretary of Arrogance and Hubris
- Kari Lake - Secretary of Bootlicking
- Mike Lindell - Secretary of Shouting
- Roger Stone - Secretary of Crime
- Stephen Miller - Secretary of Child Snatching
- Donald Trump Jr - Secretary of Self-Loathing
- Eric Trump - Sturgeon General
Kristi Noem - Wildlife/DomesticAnimal Management
Yup. As in: Eric is the king of the vacant-looking wet fish.
Head of Henry Kissinger in a jar - Secretary of Offense
Oh please he doesn’t cherish geniuses. He reprimands them and has his aides fire them after they tell him that what he wants to do is fucking idiotic and against the law and then does it anyways.
He is completely against geniuses. And elon is no genius. He’s just a rich dumbass that got lucky on a few investments.
Another sure sign you’re not intelligent or educated: You think Musk is a genius.
I mean unless he’s falsifying his IQ records, he is technically. 30 points higher than genius.
That said: 1) he’s probably falsifying and 2) he’s a fuckwit genius or no
If musk is a genius then I have a 10 inch dick
See I can make stuff up too
Reminds me of a joke.
Guy walks into a bar and sits at the counter. He pulls out a little piano from one pocket and sets it down, from another pocket he produces a little man in a tuxedo who he sits at the piano and he starts playing a jaunty little tune.
Bartender looks over and is like “Whoa! Where’d you get that?” Guy at the bar says “Well the other day I was cleaning up this old attic for a client and I accidentally knocked over an old oil lamp and, wouldn’t you know it, a real live genie appeared and offered to grant me a single wish. Unfortunately, the genie seems to have been hard of hearing so now I have a 10 inch pianist.”
So why musk then?
We can’t be cherishing our geniuses if we waste them on things like a Trump cabinet, so he’s going with Elon instead.
$135 million.
Very telling that the Trump thinks Elon is anything approaching intelligent
cabinet positions for sale
I do not think musk is stupid but he is an idiot. At least behaves like one.
Whilst I do not think he has a low IQ, he certainly misses crucial points in many areas.
