I’ve stopped writing about politics on this blog of mine, and arguably that’s been a solid decision. The truth is that hyper focusing on things I cannot change makes very little sense, but today I will make an exception. Today, I get to write the “I told you so” post.
Although it took a few more months than I anticipated, not only is the Trump and Elon marriage over, they actually hate each other. And if you act surprised, then you probably did not pay attention at all. It was designed to explode from the beginning. Their personalities, I’d argue, are as incompatible as oil and water, and that is putting it mildly.

Since the announcement of their breakup, Elon has been biting his tongue on this whole “Big Beautiful Bill,” and he did so until he couldn’t. Say what you will about the guy, but evidence points to the fact he truly did want to help the deficit, and thus couldn’t just stay quiet.
Trump, on the other hand, does not accept or tolerate dissent. This is plain for anyone to see if we look back at all the people he once claimed to love, who today are part of his list of sworn enemies. The list is quite long, but I trust people know at least the most visible names, like his old fixer Cohen.

As of me writing this little blog entry, Musk has fired a nuclear missile into the Trump camp. He seems to not care at this point if he makes MAGA his sworn enemy. He’s going down punching. He fell short of calling the sitting president a pedo, but only by a hair.

I’m sure when the day is over, Trump will have tweeted insane things. Things that neither you nor I can predict, and that will surely make this drama ten times worse than it is already.
Excuse me.
I need to go buy a bucket of popcorn.
