Correct. Instead of running his businesses, he's posting online that Mark Kelly is a traitor for supporting Ukraine. Doodley Mar 2025 #4

I feel sick. As much as I try to distance myself from all this shit, it’s getting harder, and it’s really starting to weigh on me. My retirement, Social Security, Medicare, rent, food….getting older sucks, but sucks harder in these times.

Trump destroys everything he touches. Including people’s sense of security and well-being.

How can an individual LOSE $180B + IN TWO MONTHS and STILL be considered a business leader of ANY kind???
The only thing he is in such a case is Wile E. Coyote running off a cliff...

Then there is the hideous fact that despite LOSING that much wealth, the same charlatan in also still the richest man in America by whatever the fuck metrics they use to come up with that stat.

No one, EVER, should be in control of that much wealth built entirely on speculation and manipulations.
His businesses are a total mess.
His "plans" are essentially a complete joke - basement rate Steve Jobs rip off without the capability or vision.
His mannerisms are offensive and ridiculous.
His behavior is abhorrent.
He is a walking poster for someone in desperate need of an intervention.

Honestly, I wake up every morning hoping like hell to read that Donald Trump died of a heart attack overnight, but lately I am thinking I might be just as happy for a day to read that Moron South African Himmler OD'd on Ketamine instead.

What a fucking joke, only not funny and hurting real people who deserve more dignity.

Musk seems to have moved on from his businesses to become king of the world.
