He’ll have more influence over the President than the Vice-President of the United States.

"He commented more than once that, 'You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'" Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.

Did you ever watch Game of Thrones? “Chaos is a ladder.” Musk understands this. That’s why he wants misinformation to go unchecked.

A lot of people are stupid and use popular terms incorrectly so I’m confident a google search would confirm that

Haven’t looked up the word in a while myself, but “lying to someone to create confusion and doubt in an effort to control and manipulate them” I’m thinking is pretty close.

As Littlefinger said, “Chaos is a ladder.”

https://www.the-independent.com/news/world/americas/us-politics/elon-musk-trump-maga-x-twitter-b2643399.html

The question is what does Musk really want? 

Access to world leaders, seed NASA and DoD with SpaceX executives, acquire more government contracts, FCC  changes to bandwidth rules to help Starlink, access to sensitive military/intelligence data or deportation of immigrants so they can be replaced with bots?

Probably all of the above and more.  This is how oligarchy works.  Ethics and conflict of interest rules are for the little people.

He wants MORE. Billionaires usually want MORE. More money, more power, more influence.
