sure, but why would trump, now that he has the same access being the head of the federal government, use that access altruistically to help someone who is no longer useful to him? that's not really his character.

if it were as simple as writing a check using the access, why wouldn't trump write checks for himself instead?

It’s not altruism. It’s quid pro quo.

explain the value of quid pro quo when the quoer no longer has anything of value to offer?

Twitter, which was financed using tesla stock as collateral. He won't have it for much longer if things keep going as they are.

For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.

No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.

Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.

Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.

Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.
