About Elon's Spies
Elon Musk is one of the most powerful men in the world. He's a billionaire, the founder of SpaceX, Tesla and more. To his followers, he's a hero; to his critics, a far-right rabble rouser.

[…] I think when it comes to his own political experiment, Musk sees things in a similar way. Both Trump and Musk see themselves as builders, as businessmen bringing efficiency to America. I think he's finding the returns are good and he didn't realize how easy it was. Go on, explain. He's made an investment to him that probably doesn't seem like that much of his wealth and the return is the White House. American politics are cheap for billionaires.
