Q: Why is it so bad for Bernie to say, "Elon was right about cutting government spending?" The government does spend too much sometimes. Isn't it always good to acknowledge when your opponent makes a valid point?
A:
Saying "Musk is right about..."
Or "Trump was right about..."
Or "Hitler was right about..."
Is a silly rhetorical device designed to curry favor with people that hate you, but irredeemably loses you trust with people that used to like you. You never need to say it.

@mekkaokereke Why is Bernie or any other Senator even acknowledging Musk's musings regarding how taxpayer money is spent? Musk is being written about and media covered as if he won the popular vote in the presidential election.
@GuyDudeman@beige.party@venitamathias @mekkaokereke Bernie is joking at Musk’s expense. How is nobody understanding this?
*White person says something foolish that harms Black people*
Guys guys, it's a joke! Don't you get it? A joke! It's called satire! Why is no one understanding satire! 
Stop pretending that capitol hill staffers aren't talking publicly about changing their strategy of approaching Musk and Musk supporters, to be more friendly with him.

There's a clear difference in the strategy that different senators are taking. Bernie's is bad.
@mekkaokereke @GuyDudeman I know who is laughing...
