American history exam for Musk
Will he pass?
I've had it with Elon Musk and his cruel, chainsaw approach to ruining the lives of federal workers and slashing department budgets. I know he was appointed to his DOGE position by Donald Trump, but enough is enough.
Musk may be rich, but he really is no better than anyone else. How can that be? First, he puts his pants on just like we all do; and second, I'm not sure he can pass the following American history test. What do you think?
Q. Who was the first person to sign the Declaration of Independence?
A John Q. Adams
B John Hancock
C Thomas Jefferson
Q. Where were the first Civil War shots fired?
A Appomattox
B Fort Hood
C Fort Sumter
Q. Who said, "Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president."
A Woodrow Wilson
B Teddy Roosevelt
C Ronald Reagan
Q. What happened on August 4, 1964
A LBJ's Gulf of Tonkin speech
B The Civil Rights march on Washington
C Willie Mays hit his 400th homerun
Q. When did the war in Vietnam end?
A August 8, 1974
B July 20, 1969
C April 30, 1975
Q. Which president said, 'The era of big government is over."
A George H. W. Bush
B Bill Clinton
C Richard Nixon
Q. And for bonus points, who wrote 'We Shall Overcome?"
A Woody Guthrie
B Joan Baez
C Louise Shropshire
If he doesn't get 100% on this test, then let me be the first to say, "Elon, you don't know enough American history to tie anyone's shoes so adios. Your illegal reign of terror is over."

P.S. What question/s would you ask Musk?
IDES OF MARCH, March 15, 2025
On March 15th, many people will mail Donald Trump a postcard publicly expressing our opposition to him. And we, in vast numbers from all corners of the world, will overwhelm the man with his unpopularity and failure. We will show the media and the politicians what standing with him — and against us — means. And most importantly, we will bury the White House post office in pink slips, all informing Donnie that he’s fired.
Each of us — every protester from every march, each congress calling citizen, every boycotter, volunteer, donor, and petition signer — if each of us writes even a single postcard and we put them all in the mail on the same day, March 15th, well: you do the math.
No alternative fact or Russian translation will explain away our record-breaking, officially verifiable, warehouse-filling flood of fury. Hank Aaron currently holds the record for fan mail, having received 900,000 pieces in a year. We’re setting a new record: over a million pieces in a day, with not a single nice thing to say.
So sharpen your wit, unsheathe your writing implements, and see if your sincerest ill wishes can pierce Donald’s famously thin skin.
Prepare for March 15th, 2025, a day hereafter to be known as #TheIdesOfTrump
Write one postcard. Write a dozen! Take a picture and post it on social media tagged with #TheIdesOfTrump ! Spread the word! Everyone on Earth should let Donnie know how he’s doing. They can’t build a wall high enough to stop the mail.
Then, on March 15th, mail your messages to:
President (for now) Donald J. Trump
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20500
It might just be enough to make him crack or at least stress him out.
Not my original post but someone else's great idea!
Musk grew up with a heavily abusive father, regularly witnessing his mother being beaten, all while being driven to school in one of the most expensive Rolls-Royces. Few things are worse than having immense wealth combined with cruelty - it often breeds people who believe that success can only be achieved through ruthless means.
A person’s core attitude is shaped first by their parents and then by their understanding of history.
