The Rules
Posts must be:

- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

I read this as him attempting to stand up to Elon and regain some of the political relevance he had before he joined the Trump ticket. Of course, it's not gonna work. He's gonna get curb-stomped (potentially literally, at this point), and by 2028, the Democrats will be campaigning with him.
Shame it's too late for the Democrats to wheel out Henry Kissinger and Robert E Lee to campaign with.
Surely that'd win over Maga /s
IDK, the zombie of Robert E Lee is probably electable in at least 15 states.
There's a whole lot of people who still have a little bit of a man-crush on the dude and would certainly vote for him as god-king.
All of the southeast and pretty much any rural area in the entire US. He'd win in a landslide.
