One of the greatest struggles a human being can know is the struggle to master their ego. If I may make a labored analogy, the human ego might be compared to the thyroid gland, and a swollen ego -- were it visible -- might appear very much like a grotesque distended goiter. Musk's ego has brought his empire to the edge ............ Trump's ego has brought America to the edge.

When two petty, rich people have personal tantrums, why do people care? This is playing out like a ridiculous soap opera;

Mr Bluster & the Ketamine Kid.

Put the devices down & ignore them. It's a stupid spat between two brats. Yeesh 🙄

I wish everyone had ignore TACO since the day he came down the escalator. I've always despised him as a grifter and con artist from the days of the Central Park Five debacle.

"I’m not sure why people think he’s a great business man."

. . . for the same reason so many people think Donald Trump is a great business man. Millions of people either don't think, or are dazzled by anyone whose names and activities are habitual tabloid fodder. Both of them live to be the focus of everyone's attention.

When it comes to Musk's technical skills, he's a legend in his own mind. He thinks he needs to reinvent everything and 9 times out of 10, it's worse. A true snake oil salesman. The classic example is the Cybertruck. It was supposed to be a submarine car he saw in the 1968 James Bond movie. And full self driving cars? Never will happen when using 9 cameras and no radar. It's akin to taking nine knives to a gun fight...Driving in lots of road spray when the driver can't see, neither can the cameras. I know. I've owned two Teslas.

Lol! Schmusk can try take to that one back but I have no doubt it’s true that Trump’s name is in those files.

Michael,

I think a fight with Trump would give him “Scandal prosperity!”

It would only need 3-4 years to be done, over with, then he’d have bragging rights for the rest of time, regardless of the outcome.
