Elon isn't capable of feeling empathy for anyone except himself, imo. His main complaint about this new budget is that it doesn't cut enough, so he wanted even more people to lose their jobs and welfare benefits, not less. He's just pissed because he went from being (at least in his own mind) the co-president to being yet another person used and dumped by Dear Leader, people now hate his guts for the most part and it's hurting his companies, especially Tesla, and (in a wonderful irony) the man who wanted to gut government programs is now having his own government goodies greatly reduced or even eliminated. Too damn bad, Elon, too damn bad.

There are only two types of people in Trump's world... people who bow down to him... and people who he makes pay for not bowing down to him. Elon thought he was exempt from this. Ooops. That Asperger's really gets in the way sometimes...
 
Sp Pres Trump is threatening to deport Elon? does that mean he sends EM to Alligator Alcataz first. I hear the gators held a boxing style weigh-in event and said "We want the manatee--Trump"
 
Best to assume their little spat is orchestrated, just like the Iranian nuclear site bombing was orchestrated with Putin and Iran.

It is fun to see them eat each other, but man, that is some serious mafia shit, and it is only the latest of many examples. "I don't like what you are saying, so I'll turn the government on you." Trump's attitude presupposes that the government is his, not ours. What a piece of shit. WTF is wrong with his cult?

Past times that statement alone would get a POTUS impeached.

Where do space x revenues come from?

Doesn't seem like there's a lot of demand for picking up astronauts and blowing up rockets.

Its a private company so they don't disclose. Industry analysts estimate half comes from starlink, 40% comes from other commercial customers and 10% from NASA.

Can't believe these rich jabrones do nothing but bitch and moan. I do like the idea that us pleasant peasants are having a much better life than them though.

The hatred, jealousy and backstabbing between the various Trump wings is intense. It is one of the reasons I think Trump could never be an effective dictator.

It's very much how the gauleiters behaved in Germany in WWII.

On the one hand, every dictator always is surrounded by such characters. Trump, in this second term specifically wanted those types. On the other hand, Trump doesn't like unity among the folks who surround him. So we may luck out because this bunch may not be able to unite for a coup or whatever.

You could, but it's like a 130/30 portfolio. On net, he's 100% bad.

I don't know what it says about me, but I dislike Bannon less than Elon.

Bannon has a core philosophy and he lives by it, no matter how repugnant I find it. Elon is just a wealthy asshole (and a hypocrite) who wants to show how much he can get away with because he's wealthy.

Somehow, i can deal with the former slightly better than the latter.

The Elon type is easier to manipulate
