Musk has done good/great things with SpaceX and X, however, Tesla is and will remain a dumpster fire.

Let’s not forget as well that SpaceX is funded directly by the Federal government for the most part, and Tesla couldn’t sell its EVs without huge government subsidies.

Also, X was a declining property when Musk overpaid $40B for it, and it continues to operate in the red. That said, Musk struck a blow for the 1st Amendment and free speech when he took over.

A mixed bag certainly, but a net positive for the USA and liberty.

IIRC-—MUSK GOT LOANS, which he PAID back early—with interest.
