Money enables him, but if you have an army of mindless idiots behind you (enough to be a significant political/financial influence) money comes easy.
The rich already rig the stock market and hated the GameStop debacle, now imagine them having a stock market ddos attack of Musk-Fans by just orchestrated tweeting and fucking around with robin hood (or whatever X will add into their mega app for this market manipulation).
He is a alt right brand now. As long as he has the president on his side he only has to steer the public. He does whatever brings him control over people, if that means to act like a 23yo wannabe streamer to spew his propaganda directly to the children of Maga Voters ..... everything is going to plan.
Edit: If it would be the next big viral thing for men to become a porn star or race driver or whatever it is.... Musk would 100% Tap into it. He is only focused on clout not even money any more.

China has shown it jails Billionaires, so their Justice system works better than the one in the US.

Idk... Sounds like loose loose...
Some of my customers would skin me alive knowing that I upload their Data to some online CAD Service.... sorry.
If you get the rights to lower the ground water level even more during a drought, selling the water to the thirsty population in plastic bottles?
