Elon Musk says a Republican 'less divisive' than Trump should run for president in 2024 and Biden mistakenly believes he was 'elected to transform the country' when Americans just want 'less drama'

By ADAM MANNO FOR DAILYMAIL.COM
12 May 2022

Elon Musk says Donald Trump should skip the 2024 election even as he vows to restore the former president's Twitter account.

The Tesla CEO shared his views on US politics in a series of tweets Thursday evening.

He said Trump shouldn't run for office because a 'less divisive candidate would be better in 2024,' before going on to criticize Joe Biden for thinking 'he was elected to transform the country, but actually everyone just wanted less drama.'

Sorry Elon, any Republican that is worth electing POTUS will end up being just as divisive as Trump because they will have to be just as pro life, pro family, anti illegal alien open border and AMERICA FIRST as Trump. Why isn't Musk talking about how the democrats should have some less divisive(and demented) than Biden or Harris run for President?

Actually, no. But, the media and the Democrats will make out any Republican (whether worth electing POTUS or not) as being as divisive as Trump.  However, a non-Trump Republican with the qualities you list who is able to keep from tweeting things just to troll the opposition, who is able to take advice, rather than trusting only his or her own instincts, and who doesn't compliment dictators will objectively be far less divisive than Trump and will have a better chance of being elected if the 'Rats read the handwriting on the wall and find someone to nominate other than Biden or Harris.  (I think any GOP candidate, even Trump, is likely to beat either Biden or Harris unless there is some major course correction by the present administration, which at present might seem impossible, but don't forget that Clinton governed from the center once he had to deal with a GOP-controlled Congress, thereby managing to win reelection.)

Its just so easy and well explained over DECADES, if you have been paying even a little attention.  Any democrat, especially the pig shiite variety, are always full acceptable to run for President, Jimmy peanut dirtbag, the slimiest lowest clintons-slick willy, Obama-you can't criticize him and his records are entitled to be kept secret, and last but now least, Biden who looking on proceeds to exceed the worst reign of all of them.

Now remember any and all of them are better than Trump who was leading us out of their Carter since malaise.  You get what you vote for, and this time all the way up to your tonsils.  It looks like people can give believing every lie a rest with matching denials, the Mountain of lies is immense as is the payment due for willingly building onto such.  Venezuela is slightly ahead of many of you, watch your fates unroll.  See it coming, the tidal wave will not be dissuaded.

If your paying attention, Elon looks to be caving all over the place to woke agendas!

@Kamaji

I seriously doubt he would have as much influence as Trump,or be anywhere near as effective.

Remember,Trump has spent most of his life living in the northeast and rubbing shoulders with the power brokers that corrupt the nation. He socialized with them strictly for business reasons,not because he agreed,but due to this he knows where "the bodies are buried" in political terms,and will have no hesitation about going after them.

There are very good reasons for the leftist establishment and their corrupt co-partners to hate and fear Trump.

IMNSHO,America has been waiting far too damn long for a President that hasn't been "bought and paid for" by "the establishment".

"DeSantis is not nearly as divisive as Trump is."

And that is exactly why DeSantis SHOULDN'T run in 2024.

We WANT "division".
We WANT to completely disassociate and segregate the other side and expose them for what they are.

This is not about "unity".
There can be no unity with the left.
Who here believes otherwise?

Mr. DeSantis can run in 2028.
But he will probably lose if he beats Mr. Trump for the nomination in 2024 (however unlikely that seems).

America is in the midst of a political cold civil war.
One side is THE ENEMY.
It must be defeated.
There is no "peace" to be made with them. Not really our decision, because the other side made that decision for us.

This is "a time for division". A "time for choosing sides".

There's only one guy who can win in 2024.

You said it better, but it is what I meant to say when I wrote just as divisive as Trump, because they will be the antithesis of the socialist left.

Democrats demanded and got the worst they had elected to the Presidency, Carter, billclinton, Obama, Biden and from that God awful stance, declare the worst Candidate in the world is President Trump.  Its already clear, the aforementioned democrats were crap as Presidents, and as easy as it is to see that, their error about Pres Trump is likely to be just as badly off.  They are scared to death that Pres Trump will expose them and bring their attempts at a totalitarian regime, as we have already seen, totering, crumbling down into the dust.  Even the media now openly admits the democrats well represent foreign States well, often hostile as democrats are, and leave America and Americans poor and suffering.
Long overdue to see the obvious and reject the lies that got us to where we are at, or realize this path, things only get a LOT worse.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

We need to only elect non-divisive Republicans to the Presidency, like we did with MITT ROMNEY!  A Republican that once nominated will campaign for his democrat opponent to win!  Why didn't i think of that?
 :smokin: :smokin: :smokin:
Yes, they really think we are that stupid, after all they insisted, demanded, and got biden to replace Trump.  What could possibly go wrong?
 (another IQ check?)

So is it more of the same?  again?
