Right. I do think people wanna believe he only is where he is because of buying existing companies but that's very illogical. Some people are successful by founding but others by growing and building on a good idea. Musk is no dummy. Many discount his success due to the government subsidies but few of his peers are without state benefits to their endeavors. At best he is guilty of using the system to his advantage. I'm no fan and you can say a lot about him with merits but he's far from incompetent. What we are witnessing now is another piece of evidence in his high competence in running circles around the opposition to Trump.

Its clear that the anti Trump establishment is trying to pit the two against each other. All the calls to him as co-president are clearly designed to anoy Trump. It's all very fascinating to watch.
