Musk is a prime example of what I call a "hypogrant", an immigrant who's a hypocrite about immigration. The kind who wants to pull up the ladder after he's got his.
Basically, by Musk’s logic, everyone but indigenous Americans, should leave the United States and return to their country of origin.

Hey Uncle Don, Thanksgiving is over. We don't have to listen to your racist, incoherent drivel anymore. Go back to sleep.
Much is being made, including by me, of how these mooks stood there grinning as Trump spewed a steady stream of vile racism appalling even for him. But watch Antonio Filosa, the Italian CEO of Stellantis (formerly Chrysler)

What amazes me is the sheer unmitigated bravado in this. Assuming they can slap some sloppy coverup on a health issue and bull their way through is the mark of a tinpot dictatorship. After the "Dear Leader" tongue-bath Cabinet meetings will come the garish uniforms festooned with medals and braid.

One poll. That's what the basis for optimism about this seat was based on. Instead, let's be optimistic about the fact that the GOP dropped ~13% from the last result in the district. If you're a Dem in a 10% or less district you can be happy, no matter who holds the seat. If you're GOP, not so much.

Ordinary folk, like Kevin Hassett, live action cartoon character.
Such classic gaslighting it's an instructive moment. The question is not whether generic is better or worse, it's that a list with more expensive brand names is not the same as a list with cheaper generics. Perverting that truth into an attack on those calling it out is Manipulation 101.
Hassett: "On one of the Sunday shows, the anchor criticized the fact Walmart said the Thanksgiving dinner is cheaper by about $10. Then he said, 'Oh yeah, but they substituted generic stuff,' as if having a generic something is a crime for ordinary folks! It shows how out of touch these people are."
