Sad.
Maybe. Another way to look at this is that he sees the obvious — Trump walks into his second term a lame duck and after whatever honeymoon period he gets the first 100 days or so, the real battle will begin to seize control of MAGA. Musk has embedded himself in the new administration but is also looking ahead at trying to exert more control in Congress (the U.S. House in particular where he already is growing his own caucus among GOO House Representatives) to continue to drive policy when Trump succumbs to lame duck status.He's insane.
I don't disagree, but he's also the world's wealthiest man and owner of what is still the world's most popular social media site and thus has enormous influence, and with Trump's election he's really feeling his oats. And thanks to Citizens United, he really can just buy members of Congress and nothing can stop him except the voters - the same voters who just handed control of Congress to Musk's party and to his new buddy Trump. Paying millions of dollars to defeat members of Congress he doesn't like is nothing to him, and he'll no doubt do it. He's clearly already cowed many Republicans in Congress, and so now he's going after the Democrats with his megaphone called Twitter and threatening to spend loads of money to beat them in the future if they don't vote his way. In the Gilded Age plutocrats like Rockefeller and Carnegie just bought Senators and whole state legislatures via bribes and other benefits, and it appears that we have perhaps come full circle. Anyone who doesn't find all this deeply disturbing is just whistling past the graveyard at this point, imo.He's insane.
Yet another evil brought to you by our Supreme(ly Corrupt) Court. When a country has its two worst presidents (W. & Trump) and its worst Supreme Court (Roberts/Thomas/Alito) at the same time, it's no wonder we're in such deep shit. It'll take decades to dig out.I don't disagree, but he's also the world's wealthiest man and owner of what is still the world's most popular social media site and thus has enormous influence, and with Trump's election he's really feeling his oats.

You're not giving Mitch McConnell enough credit.Yet another evil brought to you by our Supreme(ly Corrupt) Court.

Yes, Moscow Mitch's nearly 40-year quest to destroy the Court and break this country has almost reached fruition. He gets bonus points for letting Trump get off after January 6th.You're not giving Mitch McConnell enough credit.
These posts alternate with posts claiming the UK government is covering up Pakistani rape gangs, that Grok is the future of AI, please be more positive on Xitter and we’re going to Mars, baby! (The last one I suspect may be at the core of his attempt to seize control of the U.S. government - to get funding for his dream of going to Mars at the expense of pretty much everything else).
