Elon Musk Declares George H. W. Bush a "Globalist Traitor": Says Liberating Kuwait Was “Unpatriotic, Low-Yield Content”

March 27, 2025 — Mars Prep HQ, aka Elon’s Basement Tunnel No. 3

In his ongoing effort to rewrite history with the accuracy of a cracked Magic 8-ball, Elon Musk took to X (formerly Twitter, formerly a bird, now mostly a troll farm) to denounce President George H. W. Bush as a “traitor to America” for his role in liberating Kuwait during the Gulf War.

“Bush 41: Fought in WWII, but betrayed his country as President,” Musk posted at 2:12 a.m., sandwiched between retweets of cat memes and a thread about why traffic lights are part of a globalist psy-op.
“Using AMERICAN blood and treasure to save Kuwait? Pure treason. We didn’t vote for Kuwait. #AmericaFirst #BushDidKuwait”

The post received 1.2 million likes in under an hour, mostly from anonymous accounts with profile pics of muscle-bound eagles holding assault rifles, and bios that say things like “Jesus. Gasoline. Freedom.”

Hero or Globalist Tool?

Though George H. W. Bush was a decorated WWII pilot, having been shot down over the Pacific and awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross, Musk dismissed his military valor as “mid-tier combat engagement” and “irrelevant to the algorithm of true patriotism.”

“We shouldn’t be fighting wars for oil-rich monarchies. That’s what Tesla charging stations are for,” Musk added in a follow-up post.
“America should’ve stayed home, built a few giga-factories, and let Kuwait figure it out. What happened to minding our own GDP?”

When someone pointed out that the Gulf War had near-universal international support and was considered a swift, successful military operation, Musk replied:

“Yeah, and BlackBerry had international support too. Didn’t stop it from being obsolete. Wars should be crowd-funded and livestreamed.”

The “Bush Betrayal Index™”

Musk also announced the launch of a new algorithm-driven platform called the Bush Betrayal Index™, which scores past presidents on how much of their term was “wasted helping foreigners instead of monetizing American exceptionalism.”

According to the algorithm:

  • George H. W. Bush: 9.3/10 on the traitor scale

  • George W. Bush: 7.1 (but “he did invent oil-based democracy,” so bonus points)

  • Donald J. Trump: 0.1 (“for loving America so much he tried to stay president forever”)

The rating system is currently being offered as an NFT on the blockchain, in case you're both confused and too rich.

Political Fallout: "Did He Just Call Bush a... What?"

The response from conservatives was mixed.

Some longtime Republicans were stunned.

“We might have disagreements about policy,” said former Bush advisor Marlin Fitzwater, “but calling a WWII hero and former CIA director a ‘traitor’ for stopping Saddam Hussein from annexing Kuwait? That’s a hell of a hot take. Even for a guy who launched a car into space instead of reading a history book.”

Others, however, embraced the narrative.

Fox’s 3 a.m. show “UltraPatriot After Dark” ran a segment titled:
“Was Operation Desert Storm Just Biden’s First Draft?”

Kuwait Responds: “Thanks, We Guess?”

The Kuwaiti Ministry of Defense issued a statement reading simply:

“We thank the United States for its support in 1991. As for Mr. Musk, we hope he finds peace in whatever dimension of the internet he’s currently living in.”

They also added a subtle jab, tweeting, “Our Teslas here still cost too much, btw.”

Musk: “I Stand By My Take—Bush Helped the Wrong Sandbox”

In a final late-night post, Musk doubled down:

“Imagine how many flamethrowers we could have built with the money spent on Kuwait. Instead, we spilled American oil on foreign sand. Not smart. Not meme-worthy. Very low engagement presidency.”

He then signed off with a meme of Bush photoshopped into a camel, captioned: "Desert Traitor. 🐫🇺🇸"

Final Thought: The Future Is Elon, The Past Is Cancelled

As Musk continues his campaign to reprogram history like it’s buggy Tesla firmware, experts warn that facts may soon be replaced entirely with vibes and quote-tweets.

But at least now we know: if you serve your country in war, lead it through international crisis, and build a global coalition to stop tyranny—you’re probably just a low-tier patriot who failed to launch a rocket, build an app, or rename Twitter twice.

Thanks for your service, George. But next time, please check with the algorithm.

Trump Says Ukraine War Caused by Stolen 2020 Election; Ends Conflict Instantly with Confidence

At a joint press conference this week with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy , U.S. President Donald Trump unveiled a sweeping new theory of international relations, asserting that the Russian invasion of Ukraine would never have occurred if the 2020 U.S. presidential election had not been “stolen from him personally.” “This war,” Trump said, gesturing broadly toward Eastern Europe, “is really about me. Everybody knows it. If I were president, this would not have happened. Putin would have been too scared. Tremendously scared.” Standing beside him, Zelensky maintained a diplomatic expression usually reserved for situations involving translation errors or mild food poisoning. Trump continued, explaining that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was not the result of decades of post-Cold War tension, NATO expansion debates, or Russian imperial ambition, but rather a direct consequence of Trump not being in the White House at the time. “Putin respects strength,” Trump said. “And by streng...

Trump’s Prime-Time Address Assures Americans the Economy Is Perfect—Suggests They’re Just Too Stupid to Notice

In an unexpected return to prime-time television, President Donald J. Trump delivered a 28-minute national address Wednesday night designed, according to his staff, to “clear up confusion about the economy.” The resulting speech instead raised questions about whether he had accidentally wandered onto the soundstage during a pharmaceutical infomercial. “Ladies and gentlemen, the American economy is the strongest, the bigliest, the most incredible it has ever been,” Trump announced, gripping the lectern as if it had personally wronged him. “If you can’t see that, well… maybe you’re just not very smart. Not everyone can be smart. I’m very smart. But most of you, frankly? Not so much.” Economic experts, who had spent the previous week offering cautious optimism mixed with concern about rising costs, were surprised to learn that the entire issue was simply a matter of insufficient national intelligence. “Normally we talk about inflation, interest rates, employment trends,” said economist Da...

Trump Unveils Bold New Healthcare Vision: Trumpcare, Which Is Totally Different From Obamacare Except for the Parts That Are the Same

In a dazzling Rose Garden announcement complete with golden bunting, a fog machine, and a choir humming “Hail to the Chief” in a minor key, President Donald J. Trump unveiled what he called “the most spectacular, most terrific, most everybody-is-saying-so healthcare plan in American history.” He dubbed it Trumpcare™ —a revolutionary system in which the federal government will give money directly to people so that they can better afford their own healthcare. “Folks, it’s simple,” Trump proclaimed, flanked by several cardboard cutouts of himself in a lab coat. “Under Trumpcare, instead of the government being involved—terrible idea, horrible—we’re going to give people money so they can pay for their healthcare. Total freedom. The best freedom.” The audience applauded, though several appeared to be staffers who had been instructed to clap every time Trump paused to breathe.
