He stayed here illegally by overstaying a student visa then lied about it on his citizenship application. Legally, he can and should be deported.

After returning all of the taxpayer handouts he and his businesses received over the years. The investigation Krasnov made disappear for Musk's "help in winning" the election being completed would be nice to see as well.

people act like sovereign nations can't regulate him, but his fortune is deeply dependent on states. he's not scrooge mcduck with a giant money bin- his wealth is dependent on capital markets and giant banks that lend him low interest loans that he collateralizes with his puffed up equity.

Welcome to the Republican Party.
Whatever they claim to be fighting against (corruption, gay rights, the decay of family values, etc., etc., etc.), they are doing and they're doing it worse than whomever it is they're accusing of doing it.
RJ May, founder of Freedom Focus. Fought for strict anti-abortion laws (including giving the death penalty to doctors who gave assisted in abortions and to the mothers who had one). All in the name of protecting children. Found to have and to be distributing child pornography.
Larry Craig, staunch conservative GOP politician with a consistent record of voting against anything to do with gay rights, caught in a sting operation for solliticiting gay sex services in an airport bathroom. Used campaign funds to finance his legal defense.
Scott Desjarlais didn't just consistently vote to restrict and ban abortion rights and access wherever possible. he championed nonsense legalistions such as Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, which as a physician he would be in a good position to know is BS. Of course, he voted for legislation to defund Planned Parenthood and any health providers giving abortion assistance to women. He also pressured his ex-wife into having not one but two abortions, as well as pressure a patient he was having an affair with into having one as well.
The list goes on. If a Republican opposes something, chances are he's doing it.
So, as a party, if they think one guy is financing all the things they don't like in the world, you don't think they're gonna work double over time to find their own backer? Especially since there's only one Koch brother still alive, I believe.

It was also around the time corporations were given rights like people but not punished like people. Companies can donate to election campaign super PACs because of free speech but won’t be charged for election interference because they’re a company.

Jefferson also started raping an enslaved girl that he “owned,” Sally Hemings, when she was in her mid teens and he was in his forties.

They think??
Giving way too much credit, that's the main problem, they don't think critically, they hear what Trump says, or anyone that Trump supports, they hear it, and BOOM it's literally fact, immediately after.
I used to think they were just poor folk who genuinely thought this guy cared about America, but no, in all honesty they're just scared to admit that they were tricked into voting against their own interests, by a rapist pedophile no less

This is chump change to Musk. If you had a $1,000,000 net worth, for you to give a proportional about of you money as Musk with his $1 Trillion dollar net worth, you would give $276. I guess we are lucky he isn't really putting serious money into the election.
Musk $276,000,000 from $1,000,000,000,000.
Millionaire $276,000,000 from $1,000,000,000,000.

Not if they try to steal the election, but how.
