I'm not supporting the idea of government subsidies. I'm simply saying that the availability of such subsidies is not a ticket to being a multi-billionaire. If it was you, I, Trump, or anyone reading this thread could have taken advantage of those exact same subsidies and become the richest man in the world. Why didn't we?

Clearly must have some technological and business acumen most of us couldn't even dream of. To denigrate all of his success for pure spite, the way Trump did, makes Trump look small, not Musk.

On top of that, it's pretty stupid to needlessly make an enemy out of the richest man in the world, who could self fund a political action committee for one of Trump's opponents with the change in his pocket.

Valid points

Jen had, what, $100,000,000 in the bank and was ushered off the stage pretty quick.

I don’t think money means as much as it used to given the availability of information and how easy it is to get it.

Hell, it seems like they’re trying to make it harder to discern the differences.

I think it was Abrams that pulled something where party affiliation was removed, or something like that.

Nah. They both like to spar. He said Trump should hang it up. Trump called him a BS artist. They are having fun. Neither will lift a finger to hurt the other.
