    I am sure that in the final hours, he will unleash a bot army to make sure he wins. He is a megalomaniac brat who will flip the chessboard.

    Yet there are still the Fanboys for whom he can do no wrong as he is a 'genius'. Very Trump-like.

    I think he is losing a lot of them. I was one , and the more I learn about the man the less impressed I am.
    Have any of you ever watch one of his interviews? If I had to use only ine word to describe him, I would say " Inarticulate "

    At the end of the day, Elon has become just another wealthy douchebag who thinks his financial status makes him a smart guy that people should listen too. Reality is Tesla is tanking and he knows it and why he has been selling boat loads of the stock. Tesla car line is a boring old design that most have grown tired off. There are far too many car makers now that have not only equal performing vehicles, but look nicer. He has become nothing but a social media drama queen and this is a ploy to remain relevant like that ball sack Trump.

    Elon Musk has said he will resign as CEO of Twitter "as soon as I find someone foolish enough to take the job".
    The Twitter boss said following that he would "just run the software and servers teams".

    This is exactly what he is fucking up. He knows jack shit about either, and the people that work in those fields consider him a clown.

    Nor does he know jack shit about manufacturing electric cars. His investment and promotion did bring Tesla into selling a fair amount of vehicles but his ignorance about what it takes to create dealership network and life cycle support is already beginning to show.

    No, he absolutely does not. He basically stole the company from the men that did all the engineering work and actually founded the company. The fact that more people do not know that fact is utterly appalling.

    He took over a floundering startup with a few flawed prototypes and a huge problem with batteries burning. He turned around the startup, formed it into what Tesla is, inluding basic research on how to make the batteries reliable, as they are now. He designed the first production cars, that made the growth possible. Not alone of course but as the driving force.

    There are reasons why the big investors still stand firmly behind him.

    He made a lot of money from contracts which nobody believed he could deliver on. If not delivered he would get nothing. No regular 6-7 digit salary payments like other CEOs. Just bonuses based on long term success, not quarterly successes.

    Paper losses. He is still in the group of the richest people on Earth. Besides, Tesla was and still is insanely high valued. Still valued higher than VW, BMW and Mercedes combined.

    I wish Elon would not have gone into Twitter. But he may still turn Twitter around. Twitter as it was, was not sustainable, with insane losses. The previous management knew that at least half of the staff has to go. They did not do it because it was easier to leave the task to Elon Musk.

    Mainly by big commercial investors who use the present valuation to buy more stocks.

    Would you want that mental case sticking chips in your brain?

    The first human patient received an implant from brain-chip startup Neuralink on Sunday and is recovering well, the company's billionaire founder Elon Musk said.

    Musk is a liar and a fraudster, a narcissistic out of control maniac.

    He is doing untold damage to the planet and society.

    He's smart and understands consumerism hence idiotic vehicles like the cybertruck and tesla cars that use huge amounts of power on heavy vehicles to produce huge speeds for bitcoin and dot.com millionaire's (and low-life wannabe's) egos - light functional electric cars using far less minerals/resources would be a massively superior answer to the planet's resource problems (but, your average idiot consumer wouldn't be interested).

    Going to Mars? How about cleaning up this beautiful planet first? He's on a par with trump.

    He loves money and power - nothing else motivates him.
