The Washington Post refused to run this ad. Sure would be a shame if it went viral.
Who's running this country:
MUSK
Donald Trump or
Elon Musk?
Since day one, Elon has created chaos and confusion and put our livelihoods at risk. And he is accountable to no one but himself.
The Constitution only allows for one president at a time. Call Your Senators and tell them it's time Donald Trump fire Elon Musk.
