Bullshit.
Elon hasn't saved shit on financials. He LIED about "millions for condoms for gaza" and "millions of checks going to people over 150 years old" and "transgender mouse studies" and on and on and on. Wake the F up. This is THEATER and you're falling for it, hook line and sinker. Without even a shred of critical thinking. You should be embarrassed.

This is just silly. "shame and revenge"? They are both extremely wealthy, and their end game is a reversion to a less socially liberal society which does not engage in egregious wealth transfer from the successful to the less successful "just because", which doesn't think past discrimination justifies current discrimination, and so on. There's no shame in that, and no revenge for anything except perhaps for past taxes paid under our progressive tax system where successful people pay disproportionally more than others, just because they are successful and others want their money.

Correction, they are not wealthy, they both owe a lot and are desperate to lower interest rates by hook or by crook.
They are ashamed because their idiotic acts were laid bare and laughed at, and instead of accepting blame they turn their shame into rage at those who simply called a spade a spade.
Typical behavior of a bullied person who cannot rise above - which most dictators are - but the revenge is empty, which is why we continue to see an unhappy duo in the Oval Office, spiraling into frustration and self-destruction.

Keep kidding yourself. Very wealthy people are extremely confident, with good reason. Shame is not in their vocabulary; self-flagellation is not how they became successful, whether or not you like their politics. Poor people, on the other hand, who have no success to point to....

It is entirely possible that they believe they are acting for the greater good, just as much as the DEI pro trans crowd think their good intentions means they are immune from evil behavior.

When white DEI advocate thinks discrimination against Asian immigrants is a small price to pay for historical injustices, they create new injustices for very little benefit.

Similarly when Elon takes a chainsaw to our government, he cuts expenses but creates even greater costs on our society.

People have to stop believing that their political ends are so noble that it justifies whatever means they use to achieve those ends.

This is why people are so sick of both sides.
