Sure he did, but you're correct that a lot of non-insane people and advertisers pulled up stakes because they got tired of all the Nazis and right wing slop.

OMG, Black Dummy, Twitter was 1,000x worse before Musk took over, you're just seeing what you want to see. 

You could go see people marching in Ottawa chanting "from the river to the sea" and proclaiming that Oct 7th was glorious, you don't need to go on social media to see real-live nazis and their ilk.

Sure, but we're talking about musk and none of that's really true.

He built his own company and made his own money. And he keeps doing it it's not like it's a one-off. Tesla is absolutely his own invention and his own company has been wildly successful. SpaceX and his chopstick rocket retrieval system is his own doing his own business and successful. Guys worth more money than god, he's not just a multi-millionaire he's a multi multi multi-billionaire worth almost 500 billion dollars

You don't make $500 billion dollars by gaining the system

.Everything touches succeeds in the end. Even X is still making profit at this point and will likely grow into something as big or bigger than it was but whenever you make a major change you're going to have a time of growth.

Meanwhile you're stuck in your parents' basement all jelly belly  

The guy is wildly successful and not just once but again and again

And it would be absolutely fantastic for the Americans he can find a way to lower the value of the US government by 80% as well that's for sure

This is hiarious, if only since it is comically false. Elon has driven Twitter/X into the ground. It is losing boatloads of money, and subscribers. Once something better is developed, X will go the way of Truth Social.

That's nice but it was musk that made it work:

In 2004, Musk was an early investor in electric-vehicle manufacturer Tesla Motors, Inc. (later Tesla, Inc.), providing most of the initial financing and assuming the position of the company's chairman. He later became the product architect and, in 2008, the CEO. In 2006, Musk helped create SolarCity, a solar energy company that was acquired by Tesla in 2016 and became Tesla Energy.

Elon Musk - Wikipedia

So the company is going nowhere, musk walks in with money heat earned selling a previous startup venture, also became chief architect of the product and turn the company into a success, then happened to build a side business which was acquired by Tesla and also was a success

 

So no. Not true at all. Tesla is a thing because of musk and the money he earned from his own startup ventures.

Wow. He's still winning and look, you just failed again   

Musk is an incredible inventor and an incredible business person and is wild success record proves it

Trying to suggest that somehow he's not qualified he's about as childish as it gets. Surely to god you guys can find something legitimate to criticize the trump government about instead of relying on absolute nonsense like this, that elon musk somehow doesn't know anything about business

This used to be called a spoils government and was typical of America in the 1800’s.

The term was used particularly in politics of the United States, where the federal government operated on a spoils system until the Pendleton Act was passed in 1883 due to a civil service reform movement. Thereafter the spoils system was largely replaced by nonpartisan merit at the federal level of the United States.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spoils_system

Republicans want more than just loyalty to Trump they want a right wing civil service that will be loyal to the Republican Party and conservative values for years to come beyond Trump.

Are you suggesting it's only ever been the Republicans that have done this and that the Democrats are as pure as the driven snow?

He invented the product. Which if you go back and look is what I said. I said he invented Tesla. You claimed that he stole the product from someone else.

So I was right and you were wrong.

Here: this is what i said:

 Tesla is absolutely his own invention and his own company has been wildly successful.

It's absolutely pathetic how you try and stand on bizarre twists of words and technicalities rather than cope. I didn't say he started Tesla I said he invented it. And he did, he was the product architect. 

 

You're being completely pathetic. It's bad enough that you talk before you think or before you learn anything the doubling down on your stupid is just cringe-worthy. You had to know how stupid it sounded claiming that musk is a failure is a business person, and now you're trying to dodge that by claiming some sort of weird technicality that turned out not to even be true.

Get it together man. You're looking worse than usual

He did not invent Tesla. Two years after the company was invented, Musk decided to bankroll the company, and pushed other investors out.

Since you seem to have trouble with the word "invented," I will give you the definition:

 

in·vent

/inˈvent/

verb

past tense: invented; past participle: invented

1. create or design (something that has not existed before); be the originator of.

   "he invented an improved form of the steam engine"

[CdnFox]

And as I posted already became the architect of the products. Sorry, he Did invent it, that's his car and his design. And nothing there suggests pushing other investors aside, HE WAS the main investor.  

So he showed up, invested, invented the product, took it to market and made everyone in the company rich....  and this means he's a failure in your mind. 

 

I want you to think about how desperate you sound right now. How pathetic you're bizarre little attempt at word games is as you desperately try to argue weird and bogus semantics  while continue to try and argue that elon musk one of the most successful businessmen and inventors in history is incompetent

You sound like Megadouche, king of all douches

Tesla, spaceX, starlink,  a dozen other companies and inventions - he has been OUTRAGEOUSLY successful and in incredible inventor and creator. 

And you're big mad because he's been tasked by trump to turn his extensive expertise towards making the gov't run better. 

Find something real to complain about and stop embarrassing yourself.

1) the mythical “hidden efficiencies” conservatives promise never materialize, instead they end up gutting and defunding services, many of which people need whether they are aware of it or not  

2) the tax cuts mostly go to corporations and the ultra rich, the small amount of money if any that working class people save from task cuts is immaterial- the extra $10 per paycheque isn’t changing anyone’s lives 

3) EVERY Republican administration, including Trump’s first term, massively drove up public debt because their cuts to spending are always outpaced by tax cuts. This is because many if not most recipients of government spending are in fact corporations whom government tries to placate by offering tax cuts that exceed the lost revenue.  Corporate welfare and crony capitalism are endemic to United States system of government amd that’s not going to change 
 

4) One of the biggest efficiencies would be cutting off all the  Republican Red States that suckle at the federal tit because they refuse to have adequate state taxes  The worst state mooches of federal funds are almost all historically Republican states. Meanwhile of the states that contribute more federal tax dollars than they receive, allmost all are historically Democrat  

Letting drug companies approve their own drugs and polluters monitor their own pollution or whatever mad max no regulation no government craziness they have in store is not going to make America a paradise in earth.  What has made America such a polarized dysfunctional country is decades of extreme wealth inequality where an increasingly wealthy and powerful billionaire class has ruled over an ever-shrinking middle class and ever-growing population of serfs.

1) Federal government employees shouldn’t be making federal government regulations? That doesn’t even make sense 

2) Most federal employees are not in Washington DC, Feds have offices all over the country. 
 

3) Running a business and running a government are 2 different things. Musk and Vivek might know how to make themselves rich running a business you don’t want them to make themselves rich running government.   These men are used to being dictators of their own enterprises. They probably don’t have the slightest interest or knowledge when it comes to providing public services for no other purpose than serving the public good or being accountable to the public.
