I have never in my life seen an interviewer try to get someone to save face like this. Elon has zero self awareness, and he’s basically behaving like a petulant child. Who the fuck sees this man as a genius?
He needs to stop hitting the ke–actually, no. He needs to hit more of that shit. At least until the road dead ends.
sure we were, you forget #45? half of us voted to elect one. I’m not saying that was a good idea, but clearly, some of us were more than ready for this.
He never actually wanted it as a company, he only wanted to open it up because he had a misguided belief it was some evil corporation controlling what people can say and he wanted that control instead.
Why wouldn’t he have to pay? He already had to pay when he bought it. He put in cash and took on debt. The only real benefit to this thing tanking is he can take a massive capital loss and probably never pay income tax again.
The downside is he would owe a lot of money to people you don’t want to owe and he looks like a bigger moron by the day. Sooner or later, Tesla investors are going to get spooked by his deranged behavior and then he’s in a world of hurt. All his wealth is tied up in Tesla and he uses his position as CEO to pump the stock with all his bullshit lies. It’s like a giant Ponzi scheme. As soon as the value comes back down to Earth and the stock is priced like a normal company he’s in big trouble.
Yes, that’s correct but a year or two back he did liquidate some of that money and to pay taxes. I thing he’s the record holder for having to pay the must taxes at once by a single individual.

Well he’s rich, so he’s a genius. And we should worship him.

This is why I’m fine with all the news stories about him. He’s actively debunking this every single time.
Yeah I don’t think American society was quite ready to handle a publicly moronic billionaire.

Trump never got the popular vote.
I’m sorry about your head injury.

At this point it starts to really look he wants X to bankrupt so he doesn’t have to pay

His backers include the Saudis. If he doesn’t pay, they’ll whip out ol’ bonesaw on him

He doesn’t pay income tax now. He has no taxable income. The guy isn’t drawing a salary, his money comes from capital gains and he’s taxed on that.

He’s definitely trying to destroy Twitter on purpose.

I would be willing to forgive a lot if he could give us all cat girls. Not all, but a lot.

No, his more of a Steve Jobs, in that he knows how to get the right people in a room and get investors to invest in his companies.
We can’t rule out the Mars thing. I’m still looking forward to it.
Although I imagine if SpaceX does get to Mars, it’ll be in spite of Elon, not because of him
