I tend to take celebrity endorsements as a recommendation against.
Must be incredibly confusing for you since Trump is a D-list celebrity who so desperately wanted to be a part of Hollywood culture for decades.

Damn right. Actors... What do they know? They're being payed to say fictional stuff. The REAL endorsements would be his former employees, independent politicians, economists, pulitzer and nobel prize winners, world leaders and historians like Allan Lichtman.

Any chance one of these groups can convince you? :tpi:

What a legend. The cameraman had enough of Trump's bullshit.
That cameraman's my hero. But what kind of strategy from Trump is that? Everyone in that arena can see it, and i bet close to 100% could've made a similar video with their cell phone

Not likely. They all have biases, prejudices, and flaws too. The main one being, they think their opinion is superior and has such value that it should dictate and override the judgment of others.

They are not wrong. Their competency and skills got them far in life. Much farther than you. Or me. But i take it professional achievement isn't enough for you?

Because Trump thinks national TV wouldn't dare pan around the room and show how his recent rallies are pathetic and empty.
The cameraman made a courageous effort to do the right thing and show the truth even if it meant getting fired for it.

So I take it you ignore people that say you should wash your hands after you take a shit?

Elon Musk's competency and skills have gotten him further than just about anyone else on the planet. And, he has endorsed Trump. Should you follow his recommendation, just because he's Elon Musk? Of course not.

No, his money gained with apartheid slavery did. His "competencies" are shown as twitter sinks. And they're nonexistent.

This is willfully misunderstanding Nate Silver's own prediction

Nate is saying it's essentially 50:50

The twitter poster here is saying based on looking at the graph and the electoral college bias - and making some leaps in logic - Trump must have a 85% chance of winning

But Nate has actually said it's a total tossup about 100 times

This is his prediction from last night

Trump 51% winning odds, Harris 49%

Elon Musk's only "accomplishment" in life was being born rich. Most celebrities/actors had to work much harder to reach their current status than he did.
Many people were born rich and created failing companies

Many people were born rich and accomplished nothing in life

musk built Tesla and SpaceX which are two of the most important companies in the world

SpaceX being one of the most important in the history of mankind

Sure he is not some genius and his engineers made all the accomplishments - but he created the environment where those things could happen - and thus he has been a monumentally important human being

That makes a lot more sense. Nobody who ever wants to be taken seriously again is gonna say there's an 85% chance of either candidate winning.

He did not "build" either company, he bought them only after both already had an established track record of success. Both would arguably be better off without him now, too, since he wastes almost the entirety of every day shitposting on X.

Usually treats his workers like shit too: Canvassers for Elon Musk’s America PAC Were Fired and Stranded in Michigan After Speaking Out

Regardless I don't give a hoot who he endorses for President, nor do other "celebrity" endorsements sway me. As others are vehemently pointing out above (lol), Musk has his issues. So do all those other "people of achievement" that someone suggested I should let influence my opinion and vote. Not gonna happen, not that directly anyway.

Yeah, fuck experts and people with experience. Only my ignorant ass knows what's right.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to see the edge of the world, because nobody can tell me it's not flat. Oh and I'll stop taking medicine, since I'm not going to let doctors tell me what I should be doing with my health. And I won't listen to anyone telling me to seek therapy, because I think I'd know better than anyone if I was crazy or not.
