Elon Musk Picks Apart The Trump Civil Case Verdict With One Simple Question
2024-02-19
[Trending Politics] X and SpaceX owner Elon Musk dismissed the verdict in Trump’s civil fraud case by simply asking who the supposed victim was if all of the loans granted to Trump were paid back with interest.
A good question. Mr. Wife and I pay off our credit card bills every month, so it doesn’t matter how high the posted interest might be.
In a rather unsurprising move, the former was found liable in New York Attorney General Letitia James’ civil suit brought against Trump and his companies. Trump was ordered to "pay back" more than $350 million after the years-long case brought forward by an attorney general who campaigned on "getting Trump" came to a close.

Musk responded with a simple question in an X post. "Given that there were no victims with losses, who is supposed to receive the money?" asked Musk.

The right-wing Libs of TikTok account chimed in, asking facetiously, “Is Stephen King transphobic?”

#1  Why couldn't one get a 21 percent payment per month on an overpaid or positive balance charge card ?

Just asking.
