Summary
Donald Trump’s allies are worried that Elon Musk’s supposed canvassing efforts could cost them the election.
Elon Musk’s America PAC is under fire for allegedly faking canvassing data and mistreating workers on Donald Trump’s campaign. Roughly a quarter of reported door-knocks in Arizona and Nevada were flagged as “unusual,” suggesting location spoofing. Canvassers also report poor conditions, including working through a hurricane and being transported in a U-Haul instead of promised rentals. Frustrated Republican operatives are urging Trump to abandon Musk’s PAC due to its operational failures.
He spent 40B mostly of other people’s money. His liability is like 12B. The more interesting question is why various stodgy bankers gave him the other 28B.
Because that’s how the system works.
If you have $5,000 and owe 15,000, you’re in debt and most likely have to work a shitload of hours in a dead end job for the rest of your life in a futile attempt to make ends meet.
If you have 3 billion dollars and owe 30 billion, you’re a billionaire and get to do whatever you want consequence free, including breaking all of the laws.
