    His mind is on the verge of becoming complete mush due to drug abuse isn’t it?

    He looks and sounds like a druggie that will soon become homeless due to complete disassociation with reality, how can this even happen with personal doctors and clinics, and diets, and cosmetologists and whatever else?

      Micheal Jackson had all those things and still OD’d on tranquilizers.

      Drugs can be a helluva drug. Also billionaires don’t think that anyone else has the right to tell them “no”.

        Also billionaires don’t think that anyone else has the right to tell them “no”.

        Also, billionaires have enough money to find a doctor who will tell them, “yes.”

        Also, Musk is notoriously overconfident that he can learn anything better than experts. No doubt in my mind he’s decided how much ketamine and other drugs he “needs,” and has pliant doctors to agree.

      • And, billions of dollars to have lackeys find you drugs. And private fucking jets to fly to countries with drugs, and bring you back drugs. And a bestie you bought a Presidency for, to keep the DEA from seeing your plane.

        Motive, means, and opportunity.

      Worse? I think he looks great with a black eye. He’d look even better with another black eye.

      He’d look absolutely gorgeous with a bullet hole in between them.

      I’d encourage him to explore this new fashion.

    Oh don’t worry, he just tripped and fell into a doorknob from a door that someone was swinging into his stupid face.

    Edit: fixed typo

    Hitler enjoyed when his inner circle fought with each other. Elon Musk is going out on good terms. The rich have solidarity in their class. Instead of focusing on Elon Musk, maybe you should focus on the dystopic security state that is being built by Palantir. Peter thiel is the anti social Angry gay man who runs that shit.

    I LOVE that he thinks his leaving government to refocus on Tesla will solve the sales issue Tesla has been experiencing.

    He just does not get it.

      The sad thing is if he steps away from politics, I think the outrage will subside in a couple of months. The public doesn’t have that strong a memory in the best of times, with the pace of news nowadays, very few people will remember how much of problem he was being.

      So yes, just locking him out of the spotlight would be enough. His leadership is not great, but distracting him could really save Tesla’s image.

        Unfortunately, you’re probably right.

        Wasn’t Tesla the company that had a person (or group of people) dedicated to distracting him, thereby letting the rest of the company actually do work?

        The problems with tesla are not really about his involvement with the government, but that he’s being outcompeted by BYD and other Chinese EV manufacturers.

        I am hopeful that the pain continues for him. Tesla was the only option for a few years for an EV with >100mile range and a nation wide system for charging. Those things are not true anymore. I mean I got chargers near my visitor center tourist area with a population of ~40k ffs. He had a monopoly and a comically inflated stock valuation. The stock is currently seeing a proper rebalance now that there is competition. Dude had a defacto monopoly, and pissed it away to do two Nazi salutes. He likely will never be actually broke, and Tesla isn’t going away completely anytime soon. But any economic pain he endures is a slight glimmer of hope.

          I agree that Tesla does and should be considered to have deeper problems, as more new players crowd out Tesla as well as “legacy” automakers in many ways also competing.

          I feel like TSLA is still way out of wack. You put GM, Ford, Toyota, and Honda together and still you are less than half the market cap of Tesla. This is utterly absurd, even the “not up to snuff today, but they’ll outgrow everyone” argument I don’t see happening.

          But as to his adventures in “Dark MAGA”, he gets some people distracting him with shiny toys and telling him how smart he is and the world will largely forget that particular “contribution” in fairly short order. So long as it’s not letting him declare that all Tesla products henceforth will adopt the cybertruck design language and quality, Tesla can benefit from him just stepping the hell out of the spotlight again.

            I agree with you that if you put ford, gm & stellantis in the same room as any japanese car manufacturer will out compete them.

              Well, at least Nissan and Mitsubishi aren’t doing exactly great.

              I find Stellantis utterly confounding how they still exist as they are. So much mismanagement and yet somehow still alive.

                Brand recognition is a big thing unfortunately. And Jeep & ram used to carry weight.

                Edit to add: Mitsubishi is doing fine with electronic sales.

      That picture doesn’t look like the picture of a guy who will finally deliver self driving cars after promising they were less than one year away for the last 20 years.
