Concerns supporter would struggle to make it through security clearance for top role.

Lol, that was quick. Effectively, “Thanks for your supporters but we’ll be fine without you”.

    If you think RFK’s whiplash is bad, wait until Musk finds out Trump has no more need for him either.

        Musk doesn’t want to give money to Trump.

        Must wanted Trump elected so he could make his self driving systems road legal for robotaxis. He’s hoping to get all that money back and then some. If he gets what he wants, he’ll be most of the way towards being a trillionaire.

        But Trump is not a man who pays his debts and I’m here for the inevitable betrayal.

      Didn’t Musk find that out the first time too? He was advising Trump in 2016 and had a falling out after Trump left the Paris climate agreement.

      I’m kind of surprised because Tesla and Trumpnis pro coal and gas. Is Elon eating his own face? Or is he willing to cannibalize Tesla because he has government contracts and Trump will probably hand him any government contract he wants?

        Musk has most of his wealth in Tesla stock. That will skyrocket if his substandard self-driving tech is allowed to be used in unattended autonomous taxis.

        Instead of selling cars, he’ll sell a service. Instead of selling a car costing $40,000, each car will make that in a few months.
