"Trump says he'd create a government efficiency commission led by Elon Musk"

[BPPLEE]

Mmhm...



I'm not talking about his politics. Objectively speaking, Twitter is doing poorly since he took over, and Tesla has been losing market share pretty rapidly - both, in large part, due to business decisions that he made.

Should I expect you to refrain from criticizing our political leadership in the future then? Armchair quarterbacking is all that anyone ever does here.

Politics is a little different
And if you want to argue that the richest man in the world is a poor businessman go right ahead.
You're entitled to your opinion.

A couple of people on a forum critiquing the richest man in the world. Y'all should really get over yourselves

How does “being rich” impact on how you perceive a person, are they to be listened to and valued more simply for their immense wealth?

This level of wealth inequality cannot be maintained for long, eventually the plebes wise up.

If he was backing Harris and planning to do the same thing for her, y'all would be loving the idea

Like our wild defense in “Soros” threads?

I, myself, say “who am I to tell him how to spend his money?”; but this implicit “rich people know better” is borderline monarchist.

You're free to criticize anyone but it's a bit like armchair quarterbacking

Musk team ‘convinces Trump to scrap space council’​

Donald Trump is planning to scrap the White House’s National Space Council following pressure from an Elon Musk lobbyist, according to reports.

It signals that Musk, the billionaire owner of rocket company SpaceX and a close ally of Mr Trump, has already started to flex his muscles in the new administration and may seek to take personal control of space policy.

'It's much more efficient if we just do what I say!'

Wow, it’s great that there can be no “conflict-of-interest” since the advisor to the Decider is an expert on (or) about the topic!

It is streamlining the process.
