I assure you that even if this government falls there will somehow be no evidence that he did anything, let alone anything illegal. There will be no paperwork with his name or signature. Regardless of the pile of human garbage that is this administration, the US is completely unable to hold billionaires accountable for literally anything.
Americans are still too comfortable to revolt.
Reminds me of that guy who deliberately books vacations to places that have just suffered terrorist attacks. Cheap as fuck and super safe since there are security forces everywhere. Not sure I agree with the practice, but can’t really fault the logic.
Forget Biden. Bernie Fucking Sanders could have been elected to 2 consecutive terms starting in 2016 and the US would still , right now, be a highly capitalist society with fabulously wealthy corporations, and basically the same number of billionaires. Americans just might have more affordable healthcare and education, that’s all.
Even if it does, I am certain that Musk himself will have zero legal liability here. His position is unofficial, all his authority is “because Trump says so”, and I strongly doubt he signing his name or signature on anything. That itself should scare people (even those who agree with what he’s doing), but most Americans are just sleepwalking.
