This week Elon Musk sat down for an interview with Zanny Minton Beddoes, editor-in-chief of The Economist.
During the interview, Musk had a self-awareness check for the journo after she started pushing the "everybody hates Elon Musk" talking points that have been going around on the left. Musk reminded her that more people loathe the media than dislike him.
Musk also brought up another issue, which is "common sense" border and immigration policies. He also pointed out that many Democrats who now defend criminal illegal aliens and are pro-open borders weren't always this crazy.

For video confirmation, @mazemoore went back to a time not really all that long ago, starting with Barack Obama:

How far the Dems have fallen on even common sense matters.
The border was completely opened during the Biden years, but almost 20 years ago he had this to say.

Everybody knows that Joe Biden wasn't making the decisions during the four years he was in the White House and the totally open southern border was even more proof of that.

At some point along the way, the Democrats realized that they were going to lose massive amounts of power if they didn't start attempting to import voters by the millions, and we've seen the result of that.
The takeaway is that Democrats are bold faced liars who will do and say anything for power.

It was rare but that did happen on occasion.
