    Need more of this. Get Trump so butt-hurt that he kicks Elon to the curb. Then Elon can throw a tantrum and they can split their base.

      Unfortunately this won’t work, unlike the other people who he kicked, Phony Stark has money.

      You now see muskov next to resolution desk almost all the time.

        Trump is unhinged and completely self-absorbed. He probably means to keep Elon at his side for the next 4 [plus] years but he does speak off the cuff nearly all the time. Get him really annoyed and pissed off and I bet Trump will “forget his place” and either talk down to Elon or fire him outright. Make a crack and watch it grow.

        Given their rampant disregard for the law as-is, what’s stopping Trump from kicking Musk out and just taking his money/assets? Is that somehow too flagrant?

          If he starts touching rich people’s assets he’s gonna piss off every powerful person in the country, ideology be damned.

          I imagine he would have no mechanism for doing that as Musk’s wealth is mostly tied up in investments and shit, and what isn’t, is probably in off shore accounts.
