In the wake of the catty social media meltdown between President Donald Trump and former “First Buddy” and possibly drug-addled Elon Musk last week, some Democrats are seeing an opportunity to bring the world’s richest and most deranged man back into their tent.

On Friday night’s episode of Real Time With Bill Maher, for instance, Maher argued that Democrats should aim to “win [Musk] back.” He claimed that, though Musk had previously supported Barack Obama and backed Joe Biden’s campaign in 2020, Musk had been “driven into the other camp by bad attitudes and bad ideas.” Now, Maher suggested, was a moment to persuade the “gettable voter” Musk to return to Team Blue.

In a similar vein, influential Democratic commentator Matt Yglesias tweeted on Thursday, “I feel like Jeffies [sic] and Schumer should give Elon Musk a call and tell him about the Democratic Party’s longstanding interest in electric cars, solar panels, space exploration, and balanced deficit reduction.”
