Summary
At a Wisconsin rally, Elon Musk complained about personal attacks and financial losses tied to his role as head of the DOGE.
He insisted he’s not stealing from Social Security, saying it’s actually costing him money—citing Tesla stock’s sharp drop.
Musk whined about Governor Tim Walz mocking the stock’s decline, calling him “a big jerk.”
Despite the criticism, Musk is pouring millions into Wisconsin’s Supreme Court race, while lamenting the pressure he faces for pushing controversial reforms.
I’m not certain that’s true. Even if he knew it was bullshit at some point. If you surround yourself with bullshit you stop being able to smell it.
You can come to believe a lie you tell yourself long enough and hard enough. He is surrounded by enablers who are also lying to themselves.
It doesn’t matter what he believes. He does need consequences.
