    How long before Trump turns on Musk? I’m guessing within 6 months Trump will be feeling threatened by Musk and have kicked him out of his inner circle.

    The funny thing is that it’s so easy to push Trump into being at odds with his lackeys. You just get enough if a critical mass of chatter on social media saying that the other person is the power behind the throne. And that is guaranteed to get back to Trump and make him feel threatened enough to cast that person out.

      Well, Elon is clearly smarter, more handsome and a better father than Donald.

      At least that’s what I am hearing. ;)

      Or maybe Musk will turn on Trump? He and Vance can… uh… make something happen.

      He needs Musk to be a scapegoat who he can pardon after he gets prosecuted for stealing money from the government for Trump. Just like Bannon.

        Like that’s going to fucking matter.

        Conservatives love forcing others to obey the rules. Especially the poor.

        For a billionaire like Musk, SCOTUS will invent some “historical and traditional” evidence that will magically allow Musk to be President.

        Doesn’t matter. They’ll believe anything.

    Chuck Feeney is unique on this list of billionaires who went broke because his substantial net worth loss was intentional. Feeney founded Duty Free Shoppers, the airport retailer, then launched private equity firm General Atlantic, accumulating a net worth of around $8 billion. He decided to give virtually all his money away to various domestic and international charities and philanthropic efforts over his last 40 years or so. In September 2020, Feeney closed down his philanthropy company, having given away his wealth, minus retirement savings for him and his wife.

    The only “good one” on the list. Also:

    Some serious crazy eyes going on there.
