What if Musk ran for president? - Lemmy.world

This occurred to me the other day and I feel like it’s so crazy that it maybe could happen. Is it too late for him to run in the upcoming election?

“Natural born” is key. You have to have been born there or at least have been born to American parents.

So there are three basic choices in governance. All governances boil down to some form of rule of law, anarchism, or tyranny. If it is possible that the person with the most money simply gets to do whatever they want, that is tyranny.

Do what you will with that info.
