The Secret Service has launched a probe into an X post by Elon Musk in which he tweeted that “no one is even trying” to kill Kamala Harris or Joe Biden.
The tech billionaire deleted the post on his X platform and passed it off as a “joke.” However, the White House did not find it funny and instead called it “irresponsible.”
“Violence should only be condemned, never encouraged or joked about,” the White House said in a statement. Now the Secret Service is involved.
I hope it’s a rhetorical question and you didn’t just now realize it.
Haha nice of you to ask. I knew in some areas for sure but to think someone could stumble into success so effectively with actually nothing to contribute is too depressing to accept.
It helps when you start rich
Step one, inherit daddy’s South African emerald mine and child slaves.
Step two, use that blood emerald money to fund lots of insane projects.
Step three, wait until the engineers make some of them work. Be very vocal about successful projects, and silent about failures.
Alternative: infest a promising independent project (something cool and futuristic like electric cars), buy yourself the title of “founder”, and act like it was your idea all along.
Step four, offer a completely insane idea to rescue children inside rocket fuel tanks, then accuse your largest critic of pedophilia.
I don’t know if he’s had any good ideas, but he was an effective hype man before going off the deep end around 2019.
He also was willing to bet on some things at thought were hard to do (start a new car company, start a new aerospace company that focused on rocket science).
But yeah, his main deal is being both into wealth he could use with very little discrimination. (That irony is not lost on me, I mean he could bet and lose plenty and still be a racist tycoon).
I think he’s a bit(a lot) crazy, but I’m not sure whether he’s actually a “complete moron”?
