Whether Elon Musk is the real “president,” merely the “prime minister” or just Donald Trump’s multibillionaire enforcer, he’s carving out an unprecedented role that could raise conflicts of interest for the new administration.

    Biden should invite Musk to the White House for a transition meeting and not Trump. Musk’s ego won’t be able to say no and Trump’s will blue up.

      he’s a pioneer because he bought Tesla and pays people at SpaceX to do engineering that’s well beyond his capabilities.

        He did buy Tesla before someone else. So… I guess he pioneered doing that.

        Musk would like you to know he could totally do physics but he chose to exploit people for profit instead.

      Remember, CNN is part of that liberal media.

    Trump is too weak minded to be president. His reactions are so predictable

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
