    I think Elon will run his commission, deliver his report and that's the end of his heavy partisan involvement.

      My guess is somewhere between one and two years. Certainly before midterms.

      Agree. Musk is smart and a very good innovator and being able to think outside the box. But like so many, he has found that he loves being famous.

      It will be difficult for him to be a subordinate and that will eventually cause problems between him and President Trump.

        I think we're honestly going to see SpaceX send a manned craft to Mars in 2028/2029. I'm not sure how much "Government Efficiency" will be accomplished. That will be interesting...

                        I think they’re a bunch of cunts. Is that controversial?

                        I was only joking

                          Seems to be posting anti-tariff stuff that doesn’t explicitly use the phrase ‘tariffs are bad’.

                                          This is enjoyable. Musk hints at it, but I wonder if he'll post the math about how much cash $$$ he can provide for each member of congress based on his net worth. I guess the math is he could give $780 million per member of congress, if you divided his $420 (heh) billion by the 535 members.
