      Born outside the USA, so Elon can’t run for president.

        Not yet, but he’s already eyeing a role in government. Wouldn’t surprise me if he eventually manipulated Trump into creating a special class of immigrant citizens who receive naturalization because of “service to the nation” granted by the president or some such.

          Wasn’t he on some sort of advisory committee during Trump’s first term? My memory is that they disbanded basically because it was a waste of time, for obvious reasons. Let me search…

          Yes, he was.

          Alternate reality: Schwarzenegger wins 2016 election, by 2024 we have M4A and nationwide high-speed rail.

        Since when has a trivial thing like “the law” stopped him from trying to do something he wants?
