Trump Says Elon Musk's Bizarre Behavior Is Okay Because "I Have Certain Hatreds of People Too"

President Trump's $500 billion AI infrastructure project, dubbed Stargate, rustled plenty of feathers when it was announced this week — including reigniting a bitter feud between OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and multi-hyphenate billionaire and Trump ally Elon Musk.

Earlier this week, Altman proudly voiced his support for the initiative at the announcement, while flanked by Trump in the Oval Office. OpenAI is committing $19 billion to fund it.

But Musk, who seemingly felt left out — and possibly jealous of Trump proudly and lovingly watching Altman stand behind the podium — lashed out at Altman, accusing OpenAI of not being able to come up with their share.

After being asked if he was bothered by Musk bashing the deal, he had a simple answer.

"No, it doesn’t," he said. "The people in the deal are very, very smart people," he continued. "But Elon, one of the people in the deal he happens to hate, but I have certain hatreds of people too."

1. All of Trump's relationships and transactions are based on hatred. He has no love for anybody.

[milestogo]

10. Exactly, he can't stand anyone.

Narcissists go through a cycle of overvaluation/devaluation. So enjoy being overvalued for a little while because you are about to be thoroughly trashed.

11. That describes it very well. You're in one minute next minute you're under the bus.

2. Imagine if that "Hatreds" comment had come from Biden or Harris.

The NY Times opinion goons wouldn't stop shitting blue flames for weeks. But as usual, trump will get away with it. The power of drastically-lowered expectations.....

5. the bar doesn't exist for white male repukes

[Walleye]

12. Really American politicians usually do not campaign using the word hate except when they're against it

[Mike 03]

3. So he has a certain love for people who hate, regardless of who

This is the foundational principle for a successful presidency!

4. Trump is based in hatred and loves the infighting and chaos he causes.

[Skittles]

6. the orange fascist POS talks like a fucking pre-teen

and isn't this is thing, having people fight each other for his enjoyment - only this time it is billionaires

[B.See]

7. Prince of Chaos, the

lawless one, the little horn.

[Lovie777]

8. And BiBi and fellow Jewish RWers are ok with that?.............

reminds me of RW trans and gay people, RW POC.

Sick.

13. Or right wing women

9. That behavior is within normal parameters--if you're younger than 10 years old

and weren’t raised by grownups who valued compassion and integrity. But even kids raised in less than ideal situations manage to rid themselves of childish temper tantrums as they get older. The only children who can afford to continue behaving that way into adulthood are those who grew up in an ultra-privileged environment.
