Summary
Elon Musk has amassed significant power in Trump’s White House, leading DOGE and embedding his tech team into federal systems.
Musk is using his X account like a personal White House pressroom podium to dominate the news cycle, pushing conspiracies and undermining Trump’s announcements.
Ironically, Trump now struggles to control Musk, who is doing to Trump what Trump did to the GOP—pushing limits and amassing a devoted fan base. Trump knows that Musk is willing to out-crazy him.
While Trump tolerates him for now, tensions may rise as Musk’s influence grows.
I’d say he should be because E has more money.
Musks money is honestly more of a house of cards than Trumps. It relies heavily on subsidies and stock market hype.
Tesla sales are tanking and they hardly make any cars. The stock is painfully obviously manipulated and pumped to an insane degree. It’s valuation is not based in reality.
SpaceX is deeply US government funded, and I’m almost positive Musk is going to dump the pretense of going to Mars and make it clear all his work is going to go towards new ICBMs.
As much as it is garbage, Trump actually has a real estate empire. Trumps is a house of cards to an extent as well, but Musk has the much bigger fall to make if reality catches up to his companies.
Can you talk more about or share some links related to the ICBM prediction?
Musk has a god complex. He probably does actually want to go to mars.
Trump was never a billionaire before the truth social stock IPO. On paper now he is, but if the stock tanks he’s fucked. Unable to sell for six months I think I read?
Well yeah, he’s not doing what he’s doing for no reason.
Indeed. I don’t think fElon understands media at all. It’s why he bought xitter - to push his posts by force. He doesn’t understand anything other than money can buy you a platform, which is rather obvious.
