Cynthia Lummis & Thom Tillis You Can't Be a Capitalist and Be Against Elon Musk!!!
Published June 18, 2026 1:00 AM PDT
You cannot be a capitalist if you go after Elon Musk just 'cause he's a trillionaire ... so say 2 U.S. Senators.
Jacob snagged Senators Cynthia Lummis and Thom Tillis, who both agree, you can't set a dollar limit on capitalism.
Jacob pressed Lummis ... for cryin' out loud, Musk is worth more than the GDP of many countries, but she stood firm. As for whether it's too much for one person to have, she wasn't buying what Jacob was selling.
The way Senator Lummis sees it, Elon shouldn't be penalized for his undeniably impressive achievements.
Senator Tillis sees it as black-and-white ... you're a capitalist if you give Elon a pat on the back, but if you go after him you're a socialist or communist. Well, maybe that's black and grey and white.
Jacob pressed the point ... what if Elon becomes a quintillionaire ... Thom wasn't into the hypothetical, and the elevator door closes.
And scene!
