In what way would that benefit trump? Also the president can’t unilaterally authorize bailout checks through executive order, that would have to go through congress which is unlikely.
elon is valuable at the moment because he’s rich, when that’s no longer the case, trump will have no use in tolerating him any longer. elon will be discarded. trump isn’t exactly loyal to those around him.
sure, but why would trump, now that he has the same access being the head of the federal government, use that access altruistically to help someone who is no longer useful to him? that’s not really his character.
if it were as simple as writing a check using the access, why wouldn’t trump write checks for himself instead?
Love how reasonable your arguments are and yet lemmy downvotes anything that even smells like Musk approval.
Yeah, once Musk isn’t the richest man in the world, Trump drops him like a hot potato. Notice how Zuckerberg and Bezos paid their dues and then shut the fuck up? Our boy Elon ain’t that smart, he’s going for the brass ring.
It’s like he never took a European history class, saw what happened to the losers in the Soviet Union. LOL, when he falls far enough Trump will literally use AI to wipe him from photographs.

Under normal administrations I would agree with you. But we are in end-times fascism bullshit.
Elon literally has his hands on the very department that prints government checks. He can, without any approval, write a check to himself.

It’s not altruism. It’s quid pro quo.
explain the value of quid pro quo when the quoer no longer has anything of value to offer?
He does, though: Twitter.
Twitter, which was financed using tesla stock as collateral. He won’t have it for much longer if things keep going as they are.
