It seems inevitable that he's going to have a big falling out with Trump at some point and he might not be in a good position when that happens.
He's burnt so many bridges to get into MAGA, once he's out he'll maybe be a bit stranded, especially risky given his companies apprently rely on subsidies so much.

I thought Electric Car Guy was a weird fit for the Trumpkin set, but come to think of it the red hats are an even weirder fit for Tesla's brand identity.
Hopefully the Tesla name has lost a lot of its shine for a lot of folks.

I think Trump will continue to use Elon as a chaos agent, floating balloons to see how much further right they can shift the Overton window, and administering the occasional slap down, all while bleeding him financially. He’s following the Putin model, and he only started defenestrating Billionaires when they crossed him politically (see Khordokovsky et al.)
No doubt he is ruthless enough to jettison Musk, but he won’t do it until he has solidified his grip on power and extracted a lot more dough from him. ETTD….

if i were tesla and space ex share holders i'd be pissed he's spending so much time on non ceo activity and tweeting 100 times a day. i wonder if the boards of those companies could oust him in the coming months for dereliction of duty. i'm sure many ceo's could do a better job running those companies and probably without the need for a $56,000,000,000 renumeration package.
musk out ! let him concentrate on running his shitty little social media company into the ground.
