You mean interfering with a fair election process by paying voters to choose a specific candidate is not interference?

It’s a toss up between them or the “illegals.” While they do hate trans people, it’s a more convincing argument for people who aren’t complete idiots to say it’s because of an increased demand caused by non-citizens taking resources from patriotic American citizens™

Murdoch and Bozos didn’t offer a $1m-a-day lottery to voters. There’s being a propaganda machine, and then there’s not-vote-buying-by-technicality. Musk is the latter.

You’re putting far too much faith in the voters at this point.

Depending on how the cost of living situation goes, Trump is either going to take credit for improvements set in motion before his 2024 term, or he’s going to astronomically tank it and blame it on the previous administration. No matter which happens, he will frame it to make himself look better than the Democrats while the MAGA crowd eats it up.

Either party was going to do that, unfortunately. But this is definitely worse with Putin being invited to take the VIP seat at the table.
