A clown? He has the money to speak his mind about whatever he wants and commercial aptitude to ensure it never bites him on the ass. Got his prefered candidate in to the white house and has even bagged a gig to go after the spineless goverment agencies that tried to fuck him and his companies over for years. If that's your definition of a clown, it's a very strange analogy.

He's been very successful in his life. I just think he's also an insufferable weirdo who talks a load of shit. Sorry.

Which is completely fair (as your opinion) and he's defintely on the eccentric side. Just found clown an odd choice when he's clearly a visionary (something I think we severly lack in world run by a see-saw political class).

Very true, being rich absolutely doesn't make you a good person. But again 'a parasite' doesn't build anything of their own or risk their fortune to realise a vision, or provide careers to countless people in doing that. Your description better suits the political class then it does Elon Musk.

He was born into privilege and wealth family made a fortune during the parties years in South Africa. He's just now part of the political donor class and establishment. Biden & Trump ( or shall we say President Musk )two sides of the same arse cheek just like in most countries

Again, just for the sake of fairness (meritocracy), it seems the Musk family background is more nuanced then that. His dad was an engineer but his mum still had to work multiple jobs when they first arrived in Canada. Regardless though, there's no denying his acheivements even if meritocracy doesn't work for you. Personally hate politics as it's all showroom bullshit backed by the real power (hidden money) we usually never get to see. At least with Musk it's not hidden, I appreciate that.

I guess when you get to the level where party politics can fuck you over, you have more incentive to get involved. It's been the same the world over forever.

Of course it has.
