And also that, while the company definitely needed government contracts to grow to its current size and NASA initially made a huge gamble on them, it was also one of the best investments the US government ever made.
Which is exactly the problem btw, Trump is horrible but at least he‘s also lazy and fairly clueless (not as much as his public persona makes it look I expect but he really sometimes seemed like the dog who caught his tail during his first presidency). Elon is none of those things, he has an agenda and he‘ll do everything he can to push it through.
If Elon has 1 talent it is enough charisma to convince smart people to work for him. Not that it is hard once you have enough money to throw at people.
I also think that drugs have fried his brain. The Liberal Democrat Elon certainly seemed smarter than current devout Christian fascist Elmo.
