“Blessed Are Smart and Rich People….”
Newsflash: Donald Trump is nothing like Jesus
On July 20, 2024, the GOP Presidential nominee, Donald J. Trump, and his Vice President nominee, Senator JD Vance, delivered remarks at a rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan. It was their first rally after officially accepting the Republican nomination for President and Vice President of the United States of America.
During that rally, Trump promoted the importance of “making life good” for “smart people” like Elon Musk. Only days after The Wall Street Journal reported that Musk plans to give $45 million a month to a new pro-Trump super PAC, Trump told his supporters: “I love Elon Musk.” He went on to say “Elon endorsed me recently, the other day actually… He’s great.”
Trump declared to a cheering crowd of supporters, “We have to make life good for our smart people.” And according to Trump, Musk is “as smart as you get.” Trump added, “Elon endorsed me the other day, and I read — I didn’t even know this, he didn’t even tell me about it — but he gives me 45 million dollars a month…. Not 45 million…
