quote:

Musk, who also founded SpaceX, is on Trump's manufacturing jobs council, his strategic and policy forum and his infrastructure council. Musk has defended his role advising Trump in the face of some criticism from activists, arguing that they should want his voice in the discussions to offer views that differ from those of other Trump advisors.

Musk, among other CEOs of major American companies, urged Trump to uphold the agreement. He tweeted Wednesday that he has "done all [he] can to advise directly to [Trump]," through White House officials and advisory councils, to remain in the accord.

Musk being involved in this presidency was one of the few hopeful aspects of it. Hope he doesn't leave.

Considering his lack of experience in profitable enterprise, it's a great service he'd be doing by leaving.

Advising Trump is like advising a nematode. Maybe it goes in your direction every so often but that's just where it was gonna go anyway.

Musk is a great innovator but also a welfare receiving douche so I'm glad to see him leaving

Okay. Let's pretend that he's not one of the most impactful entrepreneurs of all time. He's going to be in the history books solely for his work at SpaceX. The government couldn't give him enough money for the future he's paved in space travel.

Great innovator do shite on their own dime.

Edison didn't need govt funding.

The guy he named his company after didn't suck the taxpayer tit.


Man up son and bring some game.
