Vivek Ramaswamy Calls Out Elon Musk, American CEOs Pandering to Communist China
2023-06-01
[Breitbart] Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy called out Elon Musk and other American CEOs for catering to communist-controlled China for economic gain.
Shocking Isn't It ?
In a statement, Ramaswamy took issue with Musk’s recent meeting with China’s Foreign Minister, Qin Gang, who released a statement praising the CEO for his support of Chinese business relations. In response, Tesla Vice President Grace Tao relayed Gang’s statement on the CCP-controlled social media platform Weibo. Ramaswamy said that Elon Musk allowed himself to become a geopolitical pawn of the CCP along with other CEOs.
Smart young fellow has identified the obvious sell-out.
"Elon Musk’s recent comments are part of a broader pattern of U.S. CEOs pandering to the Chinese Communist Party in return for favorable access to the Chinese market," Ramaswamy said. "This is how the CCP turns American companies and executives into geopolitical pawns: the CCP dangles business benefits in return for prominent corporate executives speaking out and behaving in a manner that advances CCP objectives globally."

Ramaswamy then cited Musk’s call for a "peaceful reunification" of Taiwan and China as an example of his dangerous praise of China. His comments were followed by the CCP awarding "Musk and Tesla with a favorable tax exemption in Shanghai."
The proverbial 'pay-to-play.'

I believe the point there is to launder that infrastructure bill money.

#2  GOP is a disgusting lot, just--maybe--a less disgusting lot than the Dems.

BTW, I hear they are all meeting at their favorite pub in Georgetown Friday after work for drinks and some back-slapping.

#1  Ramaswamy appears to be following the money. I suppose the box store graphic would be redundant at this point.
