I don't honestly think people care at this point. In addition, it's a very weak argument imo to say "we can't have this guy bringing forward all the evidence of ACTUAL fraud & corruption because he MIGHT be corrupt down the road later."
People don't care, the worst that can happen in their minds is 4 more years of grift, same old same old since the 90s.
Like the saying with sports coaches, "winning solves a lot of problems" - Trump was elected in large part due to his promises to cut the BS and to have Elon involved. It's not like any of this is fresh news. And so far they're doing exactly what Trump was elected to do.
I don't think that there is a "perfect" way to go about cutting government, and frankly a lot of people seem content to sit on their arse doing nothing but complain until a perfect solution comes a long

It's funny how the left ignored all the unconstitutional shite Barack and Biden did but suddenly these greedy twats care about the constitution.

Of course, and that's why they're losing. Some figured this out. Most didn't.
Republicans vs. Democrats is the greatest scam in history.

I don’t think ELON is competing with USAID NGO’s.
Always, When was this and what was it?

Terrible point then.

Nah. You just don't like it. I don't care about that.

Why would anyone like a terrible point?

Yawn.

Even assuming this is true and there is nothing standing in his way, what would be his incentive? He’s already the richest person in the world, and none of this would change his (or his heirs’ until the end of days) lifestyle or status to any measurable degree.
This is all a red herring cope fest: the delinquents lost, and the responsible adults are monitoring the halls.
