That should neatly split the multi-billionaire vote.

It was inevitable that he would want his own power not a share of someone else's

He’s vulnerable though. He was an illegal immigrant at one point, as he started working in the USA while on a student visa well before he obtained his US citizenship, possibly making a false declaration somewhere in his citizenship application. I don’t think it would be that hard, given the current courts and the administration’s hatred of all things foreign, to somehow take away his citizenship and force him to sell SpaceX. At the very least that could be held over him as a threat.

Pretty much the same applies to Trump's current wife - worked as a model without a work visa.bjn wrote: Sun Jul 06, 2025 11:41 am He’s vulnerable though.

Then there's all the safety investigations of Tesla and Space-X that have been put on hold while he's pals with the president.Tessa K wrote: Sun Jul 06, 2025 12:11 pmAnd because he wasn't born there he couldn't be President.bjn wrote: Sun Jul 06, 2025 11:41 am He’s vulnerable though.

He's not going to win much of the anti-immigrant vote, and little to none of the Republican loyalist, centrist or left-wing vote. Which leaves a few billionaires and Silicon Valley types in California, which is a lock-in for the Democrats, and online right wing edge lords, who aren't concentrated anywhere in particular.
