And almost all of them seem to be afraid to say as much. America needs to handle this business itself. The rest of the world is watching....mostly in disbelief at a criminal being elected for a 2nd time!

I watched this the other day. These hits are constructed by committee. I know the likes of Elvis and Co have all had songs written by other people. But it used to be a long term collaboration. A partnership. I appreciate singer song writers more and more these days. Rare talent.

I guess he's still in denial about whose fault Tesla's poor sales is. Is there no one on the board with the balls to tell him that it's 100% his fault. He should fire himself.

I think we used to win more because we were seen differently. Like an agrarian country that was always an underdog. No we're seen as a rich country with a lot of banks and a lot of big tech companies. I wonder if that made us less likeable at Eurovision. 🤷🏼♂️ I mean that Finland song was awful.

That and all the little deals with local TDs to get smaller projects (bypasses, etc) done in exchange for their support in government. It doesn't work for mega projects like this. And it lowers the scope on what could be achieved.

It's possible that Trump's cabinet might be thinking in this way. It could also be Trump's petty vindictiveness against Hollywood. A large number of Hollywood movies are shot abroad to save on production costs. This could be a way of controlling what gets made. A true propaganda powerhouse.

I honestly think that everything cyber truck related is all Musk and a rushed vanity project. Stupid thing. The other cars, model 3 and y are solid enough products I think. EVs have a reputation overall of bursting into flames and being generally terrible. But big oil likes that story too.
Pauliemac (@pau1iemac.bsky.social) reply parent
I think the company needs to do more than get a new CEO. They need to make Musk sell his majority share in the company. He needs to be ousted from all decision making. With enough time they could disassociate from Musk and become a good company again.

There needs to be pressure from within the party. Real forceful pressure to convince him that he is holding the party back.
Pauliemac (@pau1iemac.bsky.social) reply parent
Trump and people like him don't think in terms of truth and lies. They only think about what it is they need to say to get the outcome they want. In this case he wants the interviewer to move on so he can tell his next lie. And so on. The truth is not important to him.

He's going back to a normal, acceptable amount of political interference for a billionaire. It's been going on for years and the media have known about it every time. So him pivoting to a more covert tactic is like a return to the norms of Washington. Some bullshit.
