Remember when Elon Musk made a fake twitter account and put one of his toddler sons as his profile picture and he tweeted out, "Do you like Japanese girls?" Then he had to admit in court that it was his account? I feel safe with that man in our government.

He's always used sockpuppet accounts but tells on himself. dittmann was the most pathetic. He doesn't understand he's transparent cos there's no self awareness, no instropection, no empathy. It isn't childlike but childish behavior from these supposed leaders and I don't understand their followers. What causes such a state of arrested development?

'SHOULD NOT PAY FOR EUROPE'
MUSK calls on US to exit NATO
BILLIONAIRE ELON MUSK threw his weight behind a US exit from NATO, saying on his social media platform that it "doesn't make sense for America to pay for the defense of Europe."
The senior adviser to US President Donald Trump was responding to a post on Xearly Sunday that asserted the US should "Exit NATO *now *!"
"We really should," the Tesla co-founder and chief executive officer said.
On March 3, Musk wrote on X he agreed with a suggestion by a conservative commentator that the US should leave both NATO and the United Nations.
Musk's comments comes at a time when the future of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, which will mark its 76th anniversary in April, hangs in the balance.
NBC reported on March 6 that Trump had discussed with aides calibrating US engagement with NATO in a way which favors members of the alliance that spend a certain percentage of their GDP on defense.
Speaking to reporters the same day, Trump said he told NATO allies that if they're not going to pay their bills, he won't defend them.
"It's common sense, right?" Trump told reporters in the Oval Office." If they don't pay, I'm not going to defend them. No, I'm not going to defend them." Within NATO, which largely disarmed after the Cold War - is reliant on the US for communications, intelligence and logistics as well as strategic military and firepower. European Union leaders met in Brussels for an emergency summit last week with a view to massively increase defense spending.
The officials discussed a European Commission proposal that includes as much as Β£150 billion ($162.5 billion) in loans to member states for defense, as well as plans to allow countries to use their national budgets to potentially spend Β£650 billion on defense over four years without triggering budgetary penalties.
Under a 2023 law, a president can't unilaterally withdraw from the alliance without a two-thirds supermajority in the Senate or an act of Congress.

Too bad they fell for propaganda that NATO exists for anything other than keeping a relative peace which is necessary for stable trade and general overall wellbeing.

The Commerce Clause also takes precedence over a unilaterally contrived 'emergency' trade war, especially when the market was doing fine. Leon should shop the 25th amendment idea around, may be some kind of redemption arc yet.
