    got chewed up by Trump

    What chewing did Trump do? The tariffs will fuck Elon over, but that hits everyone. Musk has his AI data on all citizens, secured Space X funding and crippled any investigations into his companies.

    He’s leaving to try and save his Tesla fortune, not because he is being pushed.

    I’d like to hear opinions of anyone who disagrees with this PoV.

    EDIT: I spoke too soon. Just seen some definite face chewing

      Well chewed up - besides the financial losses - the lack of people who “like” Elon Musk. Musk is as much as an narcissist as Trump, so those irrational motivations might have pushed him to support Trump in the first place after he lost his prestige with the liberals as a “captain of industry”. But now both sides hate him, he’s disgraced. Now he’s the one who raided the citizens data and smashed up everything with his “crazy” doge (Trump’s words in the future).
