I’m not surprised Elon made it on the cover of Time magazine. He’s making history with everything from helping President Trump to DOGE, X and his rockets, etc.!

He exposed the media’s biased to towards the left of the general public. If the media was more balanced and representative of the people, he wouldn’t have had any news to report or any impact on the election. pic.twitter.com/oOGRhgXIpb
