If we took a vote, I think it would be 10:1 you don't see those you hate rationally. Perhaps it is because you gamble too much on options, lost a lot of money and these guys caused you to react personally due to the losses. I did NOT vote for Trump (or Biden) but I wish whoever is in the office great success because that is good for the country. I do NOT own any individual stock in Musk's companies because anyone who gets on TV and smokes a joint that is illegal at the time, isn't a good caretaker of my funds. Since he IS working for the good of the US and the planet, I hope he is very successful. BTW, if I could have bought individual stock in SpaceX, I would have after he first landed a first stage rocket to use again. That alone is one of the greatest achievements of the century.

Not that facts will matter to you it seems, but Martin Luther King, Jr. famously said, “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.” ("I Have a Dream," 1963) Trump and Musk are only trying their best to live up to MLK's ideas. Jobs at the FAA, vice presidency, chief of staff, head of major agencies, cities and states, should be based on MERIT only. Biden's transportation secretary was a gay man who was a mayor before endorsing Biden in exchange for a post in the administration. What were his qualifications besides being a gay, low level politician? Donald Trump's chief of staff denies Elon Musk West Wing access Of course, racists skin heads are all for this as it takes back a lot of gains those they hate got who may or may not have earned it. Biden, Newsom, voters for mayor in SF, Oakland and Los Angeles, clearly voted for skin color and gender rather than merit or character. The just recalled mayor of Oakland has been charged by the FBI of accepting "pay to play" bribes.
