    Musk does so much shit. He’s the CEO of 3 companies, he’s apparently a gaming streamer now, he’s a presidential advisor and will have an office at the White House, he constantly tweets bullshit. When does he sleep or take time to be a father to all his kids from 2 or 3 different mothers?

      The catch is that he doesn’t put in a lot of time for any of those things. His parenting, for example. He acts like a father just long enough to wear his kid like a bulletproof vest, then fucks off again. In his role as CEO, he’ll dip into a meeting where he’s had all the people who actually do something waiting, he’ll fart out some terrible ideas, make demands, and set deadlines based on nothing at all, and then fuck off again before anyone can point out that he’s not actually useful.

      He almost inevitably puts MOST of his time into either obsessing over Twitter or manipulating politics for personal gain. He’s either shitting out more tweets nobody wanted or obsessing over how many people liked whatever shit he forced them to see, or he’s waiving a novelty sized check over President Elect Dump and making demands like making real billionaires just pay negative taxes.

      He is a alt right brand now. As long as he has the president on his side he only has to steer the public. He does whatever brings him control over people, if that means to act like a 23yo wannabe streamer to spew his propaganda directly to the children of Maga Voters … everything is going to plan.

      Edit: If it would be the next big viral thing for men to become a porn star or race driver or whatever it is… Musk would 100% Tap into it. He is only focused on clout not even money any more.

        The money is definitely still a priority though. The man has more wealth than is imaginable and is trying to extract a bonus from Tesla that is bigger than their all-time profits.

          Money enables him, but if you have an army of mindless idiots behind you (enough to be a significant political/financial influence) money comes easy.

          The rich already rig the stock market and hated the GameStop debacle, now imagine them having a stock market ddos attack of Musk-Fans by just orchestrated tweeting and fucking around with robin hood (or whatever X will add into their mega app for this market manipulation).
