Summary
Donald Trump mocked Time magazine after its latest cover depicted Elon Musk sitting behind the Resolute Desk, questioning if the magazine was “still in business.”
While pretending indifference, the cover likely irritated him, as he was ecstatic just months ago when Time named him 2024 Person of the Year.
Speaking at the White House, Trump tried to dismiss the cover’s implications and praised Musk for uncovering “fraud and corruption.”
Despite his criticism, Trump has long craved Time’s approval, even displaying a fake cover of himself.
Unfortunately, adhering to traditionalism means inflating the ego yet further of dictators. I’d rather the whole thing went away altogether (that would have been a real statement if they’d just left the thing blank).
Can we just find a way to surprise mega-dose these fuckers with magic mushrooms already?
