    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.

      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.
