And the trump administration doesn't believe at least three of those bullet points.
We're in for a wild ride.
Critics warn Musk’s advisory role could benefit his businesses while undermining public programs.
I mean, that’s the entire point of the role, with a bit of a flex on top of it. so… duh?
Just came to this scene in my rewatch. So good...
"Shorty was a cop..."
You don’t fucking say.
In other news: grass is green, and (for now) the sky is blue sometimes.

No shit. I'm sure he won't use his first report to try to move all space launches over to exclusively the company he owns, he'll probably at least wait till the second or third.

I keep reminding people, Elon Musk did not become co-President by listening to experts....
He'll "advise" trump to follow his orders like a good little puppy, and he'll do it because he's a bitch.
Duh.
That's the definition of a conflict of interest...

Musk: he is trying to influence world towards extreme right with his toddler’s level of understanding of politics and shitloads of money.
Trump: he is trying to influence world towards extreme right with his toddler’s level of understanding of politics and shitloads of imaginary money.
Sparked? Editors should have changed that to ignited or even exploded, but I guess ChatGPT can't understand the scope of the subject, and "sparked" is a more probable used word in context.
