I'll believe any negative Elon news when it starts to actually hurt his pocketbook or well-being or life.
Until then I am apt to just consider it clickbait.
I dream of the day he's held accountable for something in a major way, but like my desire for that for Trump, I just have my doubts.
I figured it was more a ploy to knock him down a rung or two after his successful election by his assistant president.
