    He’s a successful scammer, for sure, but at the end of the day still a scammer who got fired for incompetence and then got lucky.

        A scammer who used his money he made through scamming to become CEO, and then to scam even more:

        • Scams his employees by paying too little or not at all

        • Scams his money lenders by breaking their investment

        • Scams his customers by asking premium prices for underperforming products

        • Scams governments out of funding

        • Scams new tech startups by suing them in order to be called a founder

        • Scams every person in every country his companies operate in by not paying the taxes he is owed

          I wasn’t talking about Twitter.

          SpaceX launched 60% of three global space launch market, I would say that’s pretty damn important. Also, Starlink.

          In any case, it’s obviously the people who work at these companies that are doing the work, not Mr muskrat.
