Megyn Kelly Blames Dems for Elon Musk's Reported Exit, Says It's 'Sad' He's Not Embraced Like Einstein or Edison

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Megyn Kelly is disheartened by the rumors that Elon Musk’s time within the Trump White House could be ending.

During the Wednesday episode of “The Megyn Kelly Show,” the host called the reports out of Politico and ABC that Musk – and his work with DOGE – might not be around much longer “sad.” She also found it shocking that Democrats would be celebrating the news.

“I think it’s sad,” Kelly said. “It’s like, imagine living in the time of Albert Einstein or Thomas Edison, and having them say, ‘I will help solve the nation’s problems. I’m happy to pitch in,’ and saying, ‘No, we hate you.’ That’s what the left is saying. ‘We know we hate you. We don’t need your brain to help us solve problems.'”

She added, “My own guess, without having spoken to anybody on Team Trump is, this has been very hard on Elon. His Tesla stock is down. His company is being attacked. Nobody wants to buy a Tesla now because they’re worried their car is going to get vandalized, keyed, that the place they have to go to recharge it is going to be set on fire with Molotov cocktails. They can walk into a Tesla dealership that could be burned by some lunatic. It’s insane. We have hate crime charges now that the DOJ is trying to file against people doing this … But the left is celebrating this.”

He's definitely not Einstein. He may be closer to Edison because they both claimed credit for other people's inventions.

1. I will gladly take credit.

[Doodley]

2. More gaslighting.

[NJCher]

3. Megan who?

Eom

[sheshe2]

4. Is she on drugs?

[Meowmee]

5. For a minute, I thought she meant his exit from this world. Lol.

[Journeyman]

6. Einstein did try to solve our problems. He wrote a highly persuasive essay "Why Socialism?" . . .

in which he eloquently elucidated his beliefs on the need to address the critical failures of capitalism. It was not rejected by the left; though at the time it was written (1949) it wasn't embraced, either. No, the Megyn Kelly's of the world rejected Mr Einstein's ideals, and indeed persecuted him for them.

As for Edison, his first patented invention was an automatic vote recorder, designed to be used by governing bodies. It was rejected by the politicians who feared it would limit their negotiations and keep them from trading votes. So again, he tried, but was shunned as well. Besides this, Edison wasn't a very personable man; he struck many as being a weird duck. And like Yo Mama points out above, he was renowned for stealing other's work and foisting it off as his own.

33. Bet most of the politicians were Democrats

That is the unfortunate thing about the Democratic party. It's history isn't that great in many areas (big city machine and Southern segregation being two examples). What I am still trying to figure out is how it lost the rural populism and even working class support it once had.

7. The stupid just burns

A cursory search of the South African’s past reveals that he invented nothing and bought his way into everything.

[Skittles]

11. yes

the sentiment Musk is some kind of genius is as ridiculous as Trump being a "successful businessman"

[Beartracks]

8. Megyn Kelly owes me a keyboard.

========

[MagickMuffin]

9. Edison stole from wait for it . . . .

Tesla. Yep, and elon musk stole from the inventors of Tesla!

[Skittles]

10. she is so fucking delusional

I bet she cheered the J6 thugs being pardoned.

[kkmarie]

12. Nobody wants to by a TESLA

After at least a decade of Krasnov saying climate change is a hoax. Green energy is bad. We need to open up the coal mines and drill baby drill. The Krasnov base never did and never will buy a tesla even though Krasnov now is saying they better buy one. If Space Nazi is so freakin intelligent why would he not have seen, his base was totally different than Krasnov's base?

[Emile]

13. So that's what she calls a hate crime. I always thought

a hate crime needed evidence of prejudice based on race, gender or gender identity, religion, disability, or sexual orientation.

[hlthe2b]

14. Given she maintains the (appearance) mold for every woman Fox, Newsmax, and other RW outlets have on tv

Yet, after her past humiliations (including a bizarre moment on NBC), she's persona non grata on the (quite literal) "boob tube"... OOOH, embarrassing!

Yeah, right. Enjoy your podcast... I know I will (NOT).

[imanamerican63]

15. Geniuses are not born with a silver spoon in their mouth!

Nor are they given everything they want!

Musk is a genius! He is a master of being a con man!

[yellowcanine]

16. Einstein had a bigger chainsaw, though.

Just pointing that out to Megyn.

[Emile]

17. Musk found out he is not welcome in Wisconsin.

[Norbert]

18. Einstein and Edison?

When did they ever fuck up our government?

Megan, I think you skipped a few days on your Prozac.

[GusBob]

19. She is absolutely right

I hate the Nazi and will celebrate his downfall

I hate his friends too Megyn

[617Blue]

20. Einstein was Antifa.

[tanyev]

21. Megyn's gonna make sure Trump never criticizes her again by being a good little propagandist.

[Iris]

22. She probably wants to incubate a kid for Elon

[dalton99a]

23. The Nazi parasite is not qualified to shine the shoes of either Einstein or Edison

[Liberal In Texas]

24. You're right Meg...we hate Nazis and fascists. He checks both boxes.

People aren't buying Teslas out of fear, they've stopped out of disgust. Nobody in their right mind would want to support this rich Souith African who is dismantling our government and our civilization.

And the magats don't want to buy an EV because their golden idol has been preaching anti-EV propaganda for years.

[hatrack]

31. To say nothing of the fact that his Big Idea Car is a piece of shit that sheds body parts . . . .

[DFW]

25. Einstein or Edison?

More like William Randolph Hearst.

[Siwsan]

26. This is all I got

[PCIntern]

27. These people have no concept of true genius

None.

[Passages]

28. Pure calculated evil. She knows better and despite that willingly pushes

and enables demagoguery for a living.

[exboyfil]

29. There is a bit of the Edison about him

though Musk is not nearly as talented. Edison was a brutal businessman who saw no issue with locking up IP even IP he didn't actually invent. Look up how he electrocuted an elephant and pushed for execution by capital punishment to damage Tesla/Westinghouse's introduction of AC current by trying to demonstrate its danger over Edison's proposed DC current solution.

I very well could see Musk electrocuting an elephant (ironic it is the GOP mascot) as part of the barker show he and Trump run.

[bucolic_frolic]

30. Megyn Kelly has confused Einstein with Frankenstein /nt

[Irish_Dem]

32. More like Jack the Ripper.

[Basso8vb]

34. Bobblehead says what?
