They just paid fucking 60 billion dollars to him to keep him from quitting. Maybe a smidge of sunk cost fallacy.

If trump had lost the election, he would be in jail and Elon would have been destroyed. Instead, we got… this.

I think Elon would have been better off if Trump lost. I dunno though. He bought Twitter for 44 billion, and that seems to have let him buy the presidency for a mere 200 million. So maybe it’s money well spent.

Good. Let them drown with their sinking ship. They enabled his power grab in the first place and decided something as perverted and absurd as granting a single man $60 billion. Let this be a lesson in history books.

Did that actually get paid out? Last I heard the judge said no, multiple times.

No. As of 7 days ago, he has not been paid the $50 billion. The judge’s order is holding for now.
