Episode 776: Trump Trying to Save Tik Tok is Just An Attempt to Brag; Musk v MAGA Base; Going Republican is Cool?

This week on Ring of Fire!


Donald Trump has filed a brief with the Supreme Court calling for
a stop to the banning of TikTok, but legal experts can’t seem to
make sense of what he filed. In fact, the filing is so
incomprehensible that they aren’t even sure what kind of filing
it is supposed to be. One attorney compared it to the movie
“Legally Blonde,” while also pointing out that the filing is
nothing more than Trump bragging about winning the election.


Steve Bannon has been one of the loudest voices in the ongoing
MAGA civil war, but he insisted this week that there isn’t
actually a civil war happening with Trump’s allies and supporters
because the other side (Elon Musk) isn’t “tough enough” to
actually fight back. As evidence, Bannon pointed to the fact that
Musk has already backed down on his vow to “go to war” on the
issue of the H-1B visas by now saying that maybe they should be
reformed. Musk is a lot of things, but a fighter isn’t one of
them.


A Republican state lawmaker named Danielle Gallant from Nevada
told a reporter this week that Elon Musk has now made it “cool”
to be a Republican, going as far as claiming that it is now “punk
rock” to be in the GOP. These people have absolutely no clue what
it means to be counterculture as they suck up to the richest man
on the planet – who also happens to be the biggest dork in the
world.


All that, and much more, on this week’s Ring of Fire Podcast!
