Just a general note. Our time and money are limited. They are finite. We must use them wisely, strategically, and as we've discussed here because Trump see the world through winning/losing, strong/weak it is important to get wins and not lose. All of you are free to do whatever you want to do with your time and money. What I do here is make my recommendation each day on where I believe it is best spent. I do not expect everyone here to agree with that, or follow my recommendations. But as I have said many times we cannot rush into battle. Those who do get shot first. Everything we do must be done strategically, guided by data and with a real chance of success. Losing is bad. My other note is that I think it has become too far easy to dismiss the DC Democrats as losers, weak, stupid, corrupt. Almost everyone who says these things have never won an election in a swing district or state with 50m, 100m worth of ads run against them. You do not have to agree with our leaders now but you should not be disrespectful of their experience and knowledge. It may be you that is ignorant and uninformed, not them; and I encourage all of you to do your best to remember that our opponent, the one doing damage to the country is Trump not other Democrats. If we descend into factionalism and spend all of our time degrading Dems and not Rs we guarantee that Trump wins and we lose - Simon

Tesla toxic in Germany

As we know, elections have consequences – but so do corporate heads getting overly involved in elections, especially foreign elections. And even more so in the case of Elon Musk, who very publicly chose to support the Neo-Nazi AfD in Germany’s recent parliamentary election.

Now German car buyers have given Musk the clearest possible rebuke for his election meddling. Tesla sales in Germany dropped by 76.3% in February 2025 compared with February 2024.
