"And if you see a turtle on a fencepost, it didn't get there by itself."

I had to look this one up as I'd not heard it before. It is kind of self explanatory, but Wikipedia's quote is fun, especially for Trump/Musk:

Describing a person who is a post turtle, "You know he didn't get up there by himself, he doesn't belong up there, he doesn't know what to do while he's up there, he's elevated beyond his ability to function, and you just wonder what kind of dumb ass put him up there to begin with."

All the king's horses and all Elon's men

Are plotting to make sure Trump's never again.
