Discussion I am almost done...': Elon Musk reveals date quit Washington DC

https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/international/global-trends/us-news-elon-musk-doge-1-trillion-cost-cutting-may-end-i-am-almost-done-elon-musk-reveals-date-hell-ditch-trum

Elon Musk plans to step down from his cost-cutting role in the Trump administration at the end of May after reducing the US deficit by $1 trillion, the tech billionaire said on Thursday, according to The Fox News. Musk, 54, expressed confidence in getting close to that goal, which would halve the annual federal deficit, in just 130 days — saying his team was averaging “$4 billion a day, every day, seven days a week.”

He’s not smart. He just can’t work more than 130 days as a special government employee

He’s already broken the conflict of interest section of the United States Code, why stop there

he doesnt want to run "the american federal government"... he would be happier with his own state or 3ish, and if he cant get that, he is going to get MORE contracts out of the federal government. the man is flat out winning the technolibertarian lottery right now.

"can't"???? That's a really funny word. I don't know what that means anymore.

"he's not smart"

Remember what Elon has accomplished while you sat on reddit for the last 5 years of your life.

Oh, of course, but my dad didn’t own a diamond mine. I wasn’t driven around in a Rolls Royce my entire life. He was very fortunate to be in a position to buy his place in some great companies and pass the work off as his own without having to start from humble beginnings. I’m glad he’s making the most of his privilege, just wish there were less nazi salutes; zero would have been a good number.

In this case, I should have qualified that sentence more. I was trying to say he’s not playing chess with the 130 day thing. It’s a number that is forced on him, not some intelligent, grand plan that he had for his position in government. It’s pretty clear that they don’t know what they are doing beyond flailing around with a chainsaw.

If you honestly believe the autistic man who is known for being socially awkward did a Nazi salute like he's in some underground racist cult, I don't know what to tell you bud 😂 it's comical how some people think

I've seen the video. Many times. It's not a Nazi salute.

Try and spin it into him doing a Nazi salute but anyone with 2 eyes sees a socially awkward autistic man doing socially awkward autistic man things.

And an idiot or a liar? You're both.

Let me know when you untwist from that pretzel you’ve found yourself in and then we can talk.

Yeah, but I’m happy sitting here posting on Reddit while it’s raining outside on a Sunday morning. Elon is a miserable sack of shit that has to constantly lie to feed whatever is broken inside his head.
