I'm looking forward to after all this mess is over, all of the felony charges that he's going to get hit with just for what he's been up to the past few weeks.

Who, the guy that posted on Reddit? Yeah, he's going to be in a lot of trouble, I agree.

I kid. I actually think that the one saving grace in all of this is that Trump is generally considered the boss, and famously thin-skinned and jealous, and Musk is like a hot poker to both of those attributes over the long term. I think it's halfway likely that Trump will turn on Musk, especially after they cause some kind of absolutely unmistakable visible national fuck-up, at which point his plot armor will go away and he'll suddenly be liable for all of his crimes.

It might be wishful thinking. But I think it's at least 50% likely.
