Walz is just one of several Democrats who have referred to Musk’s immigrant background

    You’re overthinking it. Can’t do that when it comes to conservatives. Waltz knows this, and he’s done it his entire career.

    Thinking requires effort. Musk profited because he was already wealthy. He was already wealthy because his parents prospered in apartheid South Africa. Thus, him being a baby of nepotism.

      Sanders doesn’t talk down to conservative voters. He cuts through the bullshit. The truth is the economic disparity between blue and red states would be ample grounds for insurrection if US citizens didn’t have the class consciousness beaten out of them. The fact that the MAGA cult captured those states doesn’t negate the reality of a divided country.

      As much as Waltz might be a good moderate administrator of a nice mid-west state and a nice bloke I don’t think he has what it takes to unite a country. Politicians like Walz are funded by nepo babies and immigrants as much as any other politician. They aren’t all like Elon Musk. Talk about the real problems perhaps. This war isn’t going to be won by focus groups and sound bites.

      If I wanted easy upvotes I would write 4 words everyone wanted to hear instead of waste time trying to write a thoughtful response.
