“What happened in this election campaign cannot go unchallenged,” Merz, the front-runner from the center-right conservative alliance, told the Wall Street Journal in an interview. “It can be a political response.

    The only result that would be truly satisfying is if they got Musk to step foot in the country for one reason or another and then arrested him, declared him a flight risk, and denied him bail. Let him rot while he goes through a trial.

      I’d like to see them fine and nationalize any company he’s formally associated with for as much as they can get inside of the EU. Please let us see some consequences, and make future companies afraid of getting involved with people that could bankrupt them by attempting to disrupt the democratic process.

    What are you going to do about the world’s richest man living far away in freedom land?

    Let the billionaires own all important social media platforms, ignore the monopolies for decades and then Pikachu face your way out of this.

    At least we all go down together ^^

      He’s got a giant factory in Berlin that can be closed/taken away/whatever. Although with the way Tesla sales are going in Europe that might be a plus for him.
