      The King of Destruction of all things good about the United States was elected to the Presidency. He took over Republican thinking for over a generation. Essentially until Sarah Palin. Sarah Palin/Tea Party is what we are living with now which is an exponent worse than Reagan. I think the Republican Party has devolved from the Tea Party at this point. Now deficits OR any sort of "balancing the books" has gone out the window. They love deficits as long as they come from things that they love. Like cutting taxes for rich people.

        I don’t think assigning the Tea Party to today’s GOP is right. As soon as Paloma Dan other GOP officials got in on the act? Along with the Kochs funding various events, the Tea Party ended in all but name. This is the era of the Koch’s excessive influence.

          I said they devolved from the Tea Party. There is a causal link.

              The difference between the Reagan GOP and the Dump GOP is with Reagan some very smart criminals conned dummies into running and voting for them, while now it's dummies all the way down.

                    Some people seem happy that Elon is choosing to not join twitters board.

                    he’d be held to a limited percentage of ownership if he was on the board

                      Saw a tweet that said Twitter has absolutely no means to defend itself from a hostile takeover, which is where Musk seems to be positioning himself. No poison pill, no special voter shares, etc.

                          CNBC is wondering just where he's gonna get financing from. Sounds like it's more bluster from Musk.

                              Yeah, and maybe Putin will give up and take his military out of Ukraine. Both have the same shot at happening.

                                That was *exactly* CNBC's point. They even called out the SEC's lack of action.
