Instead of threatening to primary Republicans, now TSF can threaten to send Elon to campaign for them

[milestogo]

The Republican loser in yesterday's WI Supreme Court election was a typical GOP candidate. In an ordinary year, without all the outside attention, this would have been a much closer race. Wisconsin is a 50:50 state and statewide elections don't get called before 10:30pm... usually.

Being associated with Trump is not a good thing. People are angry about what's happening in this country.

Being associated with Elon Musk is even worse. Nobody voted for him, but there he is, involved in every facet of our system.

And people are only going to get angrier. Hopefully there will be huge changes in 2026!

1. Watch the Republicans run ( or crawl) the other way. Distance from Trump and Musk will be the new watchword.

2. He insulted them

With his buy your vote “promo”.

I’ve analyzed the promotional plan elsewhere on DU. It is nothing a professional planner would ever do.

Musk fancies himself a Renaissance man who can do anything. Nothing he’s done impresses me.

3. I think the cheesehead was also a dealbreaker.

Don't go to a place you've never been before and pretend you're a local. People don't like it.
