This is the Way... To a New Political Party? Musk's 'American Party' Blasts Off!

Mando's Musings on Musk

Alright alright settle down. The kid's asleep and I got a report to file. Seems some fella named Elon Musk richer than a Hutt on spice has started his own political party. Calls it the 'American Party.' Now I've seen parties on Nar Shaddaa that were less chaotic than this sounds. This is the way... to create galactic gridlock?

Trump's Got Sand in His Craw

Apparently this Musk fellow had a 'falling out' with some other bigwig named Trump. Trump's slingin' mud sayin' Musk has 'gone off the rails.' Rails? What rails? Is he ridin' a Jawa sandcrawler now? I’ve seen better diplomacy in a Tusken Raider camp.

Senate Seats and House Districts: This is the Math?

Musk says he's focused on 'just 2 or 3 Senate seats and 8 to 10 House districts.' Sounds like my kind of bounty: specific achievable. Although with those numbers he'll need to hire a Mandalorian if he wants to secure all of those seats. Maybe I should send him my resume. 'I can bring you in warm...or I can bring you in cold.'

Tariffs? This is the Way... To Make Enemies

Seems like tariffs are back in the news. This Trump guy wants to slap 'em on everyone especially those folks in the BRICS thing. Slapping tariffs around like Pazaak cards I tell ya. It is as pointless as being caught in a Sarlac Pit. This galaxy is already a mess let's not add another layer of spice to it.

Oil Slick Shenanigans

OPEC+ is pumpin' out more oil than a busted Tibanna gas mine on Bespin. Stock futures slipped. Everyone's worried. Me? I'm worried about finding enough fuel for the Razor Crest's replacement. This much I have learned: Never trust a politician and always check the fuel lines.

Private Credit: A Hidden Contagion?

Now there's this whole business about 'private credit' being a potential financial contagion. Sounds like a nasty virus you'd pick up on some backwater space station. More credits more problems. This is the way...to a financial black hole apparently. Maybe Grogu can force choke the market back into shape.
