Too many hundreds of billions to be made.

Trump can help musk become a trillionaire and the most influential person in history thanks to social media. Musk can make trump Time's person of the year and a hero to billions.

How? By destroying the economy? Trumps stated policies will destroy the economy on his own, but if he lets Musk get involved, it will be doubly worse. Hint: Musk is not a popular person, and the more people know about him, the more disliked he becomes.

"Hint": musk is a very popular person on social media. He has 200 million followers on twitter alone. He has tons of fanboys all around the world and his techno buddies cast a very deep and wide net of influence and money.

He's a total piece of shit to us normals, but there's hundreds of millions of right wing nuts all around the world who admire him. You really have no idea how dangerous Leon Musk is. And the richer he gets, the more dangerous he becomes.

tiny dick now, are totally different than the Scaramucci’s of the world. They have zero principles. They will do what ever he says to stay on his “good” side.

As for Margie Three Toes as Homeland Security Director, lord help us all if that happens.

However once in power the fascist leader demands a cut of the oligarchs' money, and puts them
in their place. He reminds them that he has the power, they don't.

In Russia, many of the oligarchs tend to stand too close to windows as a reminder who
has power and who doesn't.

But I doubt he will. Mysks followers are nearly -if not more insane and unmovable as Trumps.
