Elon Musk is a total fraud

A few here, including myself, have pointed out that we are financing this fraud to the tune of billions of dollars. Why? Because he's a "visionary"? A "time-traveler"?

Please. Stop. He's a slick huckster.

One disastrous tweet has finally revealed Elon Musk for what he is: a fraud.

Enraged that a British cave diver called his idea to rescue the Thai soccer team for what it was — “a p.r. stunt [with] absolutely no chance of working” — Musk took to Twitter and called him a “pedo.”

Just like that, Tesla’s market value plummeted by $2 billion.

Musk infamously does not take criticism well and refuses to be questioned or challenged — three lethal traits in a leader. On a conference call with analysts in May, Musk dismissed questions about Tesla’s diminishing capital and other dubious claims with name-calling.

“Excuse me,” Musk said. “Next. Boring boneheaded questions are not cool.”

Tesla’s stock plummeted 5.6 percent after that performance. They also dropped 5 percent after an April Fool’s Day tweet in which Musk announced Tesla had gone bankrupt.

The guy is a disaster. When he's done, there will be a long trail of bankruptcies, ruined careers and politicians left scratching their heads wondering, "where did it all go wrong?"
