    Because Elon Musk is just Donald Trump with business sense. I get roasted every time I say this, but I’ve never been more sure of anything in my life.

      Lol, Musk has had his bad ideas shot down since he tried to rename PayPal to “X”. He was just lucky enough to buy valuable companies and have capable people stop him from ruining them with his terrible ideas.

      I honestly think if you gave a random person a billion dollars and told them to buy a company to run they could do just as well as Musk

      Not roasting, but don’t really agree. I mean, look at what’s left of twitter. He was never directly controlling Tesla and certainly not SpaceX, just had the money, practiced bullshit artistry, and made specific orders if it suited him.

      I can almost certainly thank him for the ability to make my car fart from my phone, but that’s about it.*

      *Disclaimer: Comment author (hereby “jerkface”) fully acknowledges jerkface has no insider experience in the Tesla product pipeline, and jerkface carries hopeful bias in that Musk has very little to do with the success of Tesla in order to assuage jerkface’s emotional guilt for loving the absolute shit out of jerkface’s Model 3 Performance because it’s awesome.

      Edit-crap, no superscript with ^ I guess.
