That phrase never made any sense to me. If you truly trust someone then there is no reason to verify. Like saying I trust you honey but let me see your phone what’s the code?😂
Since humans are failed and fallen and govts simply can’t be trusted. Present US govt is exhibit A

Maybe better version is I will believe you, but I expect you will break your promise, agreement…. So I will be keeping an eye one you.

lol maybe saying the same thing😎

Musk seems to be on the up and up, but as I said we are all failed and fallen. A benevolent leader, person… often changes for the worse.

As the saying goes power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely or the road to hell is paved in good intentions.

King David is a good example of this.

So I have hopes and prayers for Elon and Trump, but I am prepared to be disappointed

WTS, I believe the turning point in the stranglehold on information and narrative was musk buying twitter, and this may very well be a case of people so rich that they will do the right thing.

We will see
