  • People don’t understand, they both speak the same language. They’re both natural grifters… What’s more Musk is probably better at it than Trump was. Trump needed lessons from Roy Cohn, who was a ruthless, damaged, low empathy, closet homosexual and self-hater.

    Musk didn’t need that kind of mentor, he’s a natural grifter, and my bet is that Trump is fascinated by him. They do similar things in different ways.

    Only in certain scenarios would this blow up, and Musk has already bent the knee to Trump, so those scenarios are unlikely.

    Musk is a friendly fellow grifter Trump can use, and has power over, which is what Trump likes.

    At best we’ll see Musk become a fall guy for Trump’s shortcomings. But seeing as Trump may later die in office, Musk might also avoid such a fate. Only time will tell.
