The Democrats are already trying to "cancel" Elon Musk in any way possible, and ahead of them, as always, is the most liberal state - California.
San Diego Attorney Mara Elliott announced that her office is moving to Instagram * (the social network is banned in Russia, I remind you) and will no longer use the Twitter platform.
Like, from now on, American liberals cannot feel safe in this refuge of the right.
Well at least I didn't plant it.
However, such proposals are already being voiced.
No, calling Musk an agent of the Kremlin is no longer creative.
Capturing the latest geopolitical trends, Democratic Senator Chris Murphy signed up the billionaire as Riyadh's agents.
And he called the Committee on Foreign Investments for help.
After all, Saudi prince Al-Waleed bin Talal owns part of the Twitter shares.
We are talking about the amount of $ 1.89 billion. A great way to hit two targets at once - both the Saudi royal family and the obstinate billionaire.
And that is not all.
Radio presenter Dean Obeidallah, citing his legal experience, threatens to expose Musk in the US citizenship story.
Obeidallah threatened to lift the questionnaire that Musk filled out when applying for legal status.
The sad irony here is that a bearer of liberal ideology is trying to deal with the owner of Twitter in this way, one of the cornerstone postulates of which in the United States is a loyal attitude towards migrants.
“He encroached on an African American,” was the response of the most resourceful Twitter users to Obeidallah.
Musk is indeed from South Africa.
Why such a wave of negativity is understandable.
One week before the election.
The United States is covered by a red Republican tsunami, and Musk seems ready to open all the floodgates.
Those who were responsible for censorship are dispersed online.
Twitter is preparing to lay off up to a quarter of employees who have become useless.
The remaining moderators were forbidden to forbid.
They were denied access to content suppression tools.
Another support that this online relied on is about to collapse - the “Ministry of Truth”.
The verified account verification checkbox will now be available to everyone for $8 per month.
That is, Musk removes these shoulder straps from liberals.
Of course, one should not be under any illusions.
The rebellion (when it begins to really harm the policy of the party and government) will be promptly suppressed.
As it was already with the Ukrainian satellites.
In any case, the key segment will not be the next seven days, but the remaining two years before the presidential election.
2024 is where those for whom uncontrolled Twitter is like a nuclear arsenal are looking with fear.
The mask, as if in a commercial, is shown all the options with which they can deal with him.
From “cancellation” (deplatforming) through financial losses to personal damage (deprivation of citizenship) and up to criminal prosecution with potential imprisonment.
And if Musk is still at the beginning of the journey, then another recalcitrant has long passed the equator.
This recalcitrant is Donald Trump.
According to The Hill, in two or three months the former US president may be formally charged.
The window of opportunity for the Democrats is more like a window.
If we hurry, then the atmosphere of the transit of power in Congress can be dangerously poisoned, and taking into account what happened on January 6, 2021, to deadly toxic levels.
If dragged out, then Trump could announce the nomination, and a criminal case against an incumbent candidate is even worse than a criminal case against a former president.
However, the third option is not excluded.
Perhaps Trump is being rushed to the nomination in this way.
It is believed that for the current head of the White House in 2024, his predecessor could be an ideal sparring partner.
Firstly, once Biden Trump has already won (how - it doesn’t matter here, the psychological fact itself is important).
Secondly, it is against the radical Trump that it will be easiest to unite both Democrats and moderates.
This, by the way, is exactly what the Democrats failed to do now in the congressional elections.
The threat from the Republicans was not personified.
To demonize dozens of candidates for the House of Representatives and the Senate only on the basis of their ideology is an unsolvable task even for liberal political strategists of the Soros style.
By 2024, voters will no longer be distracted by inflation or problems in the economy that are more understandable to them.
This is what Democrats need Donald Trump for.
