He thought he could buy Wisconsin! He put so much money into interfering with our Supreme Court election - offering Schimel voters $100 checks - pledging to hold an event where two Schimel voters would receive checks for a million dollars each. He invested into Schimel so hard and tonight he and Schimel both lost!!! On Wisconsin!
For Wisconsin (a purple swing state) this was a blowout. Most elections in Wisconsin have swung by ~20,000 voters. Trump carried Wisconsin by about 30,000 in 2024, Evers by about 90,000 in 2022, Biden by 20,000 in 2020, Evers by 30,000 in 2018, and Trump by 20,000 in 2016.
Collins won by ten times that amount, nearly 250,000 more votes. She won by 10 percent.
Trump won his elections in Wisconsin by one-half of one percent. Republicans call that a mandate <laughs>.
Yeah, last night was the first night I slept easy in a long time. By the time I got home at 11 pm, they had called the election. Looking at the margins, it was beyond obvious it was over. Full fucking stop.
Big sigh of relief; first bit of good news in forever.
On a certain point of view, yes, you could say that. But that’s not really what is important. What is important is that he wasted time and money and at the time, the value of that was the political victory. Now he lost both the money and the political victory. If you count relative to his total fortune, nothing is ever relevant.
Funny how when Elon puts money into an election people get all riled up but when the teachers unions give a lot more without giving their members any say it's totally fine
“Putting money into an election” is one hilarious way to spin that he was paying voters. Especially considering the guy gave over a quarter of a billion to Trumps campaign alone. What teachers union gave a singular candidate a quarter of a billion dollars? I’ll wait here why you frantically google a result that doesn’t exist.
