No offence but that is one of the dumbest questions I ever heard. “Why does a narcissist want all this power?”
It is and isn’t. I suspect it was a meant to be mostly rhetorical. Obviously the power is attractive, but the dude has enough “fuck you” money to live his life as he pleases without being on a government task force. He’s clearly bored and disoriented with his vast wealth.

Elon would be the next GOP US president if he wasnt born in SA.
If being a convicted felon, sexual abuser, and Russian asset didn't disqualify Donnie Boy what makes you think that being born in another country would disqualify Elon? The Constitution/law/cultural norms only apply when it's Democrats.

Someone could be hard at work figuring out how to couch the argument for a loophole that would specify which foreign born people can occupy the Oval Office.

On a recent Sam Harris podcast he asked - what could Trump provide as motivation for the richest man in the world to get so closely involved in this political situation the way he has? I think we’re gonna find out.
apartheid elon has a string of open federal investigations from various agencies for his various "businesses" that he'd like to go away.

also (personal speculation) this is the closest he can get to the oval office since he is not a natural born citizen

Going full super villain in the process. Why not just fund the puppet in secrecy like everyone else does? Nooo. Gotta make sure everyone knows he’s involved and pulling the strings.

Was just reading a piece about the possibility of a US government shutdown and it included this hilarious hypocrisy:

“Democrats accused Johnson of caving to pressure from an unelected billionaire.”

I mean. They did, but, like, c’mon guys.

In the cleavage of the Tetons
I was thinking that a solution to this could be to have Musk, Trump, Bezos/etc ( + Repubs who vote for the shutdown) become personal guarantors to the shutdown costs. If the experiment ‘works’ (whatever the fuck that means, I can’t see an upside), they keep their money. (With no other fiscal/power gains whatsover). And if not, they pay for the whole debacle.

Merry X Musk Brian.

Brother,it is early on as we know before History is made. One can not really act stupid with comments before The President actually comes into Power. As such,I would like to say I am Very confused as to who is the Boss? I thought Trump is now the Boss,come January that is. Yet Musk is all in the puddin. It does not look like he cares what so ever? Just tellin mother fuckers what todo?

Trump put Musk in charge of trying to curb our outrageous spending. They went from a 1500 page spending bill down to a 118 page bill. The left is pushing the Musk president thing because that's all they have now. Trump has become more popular than ever and that doesn't sit well with the far left & elites. Just look at all the whiny peeps on this site. They're still reeling in their safe spaces right now. LOL!

If the Biden administration did such a bang up job, why did they just get kicked far from the curb in November? The question should be, who has really been running the country for the last 4 years, because they sure did manage to fuck it up. Definitely wasn't Biden, his mind has been shot since campaigning from his basement in 2020. My guess it was Obama, Pelosi & Schumer.
