QUESTION: What’s your opinion on Elon Musk?
Talk about it.
The Water Cooler – What’s Your Opinion On Elon Musk?
An ambitious pioneer with lots of ideas. He started with a small business, partnered with his brother, and a friend. Later sold that business to Compaq, and made a few million. He took that money and co-founded another company. This is what he does, starts a business, builds it to success, sells it, and builds another business to success, now he is one of the richest men in the world…..not bad.
His mother is a model in her 70s. She still models bathing suits, and was on the cover of Sports Illustrated when she was 74.
Unique, rich guy. Different mindset than me. Of course, had I that kind of mind, I may have been in the billionaire club instead of crabbing about the crappy biden economy, or the cost of beef nowadays. Definitely appreciate his innovative mind.
Opinion on Elon Musk, … for me is insignificant. Interesting with all the directions he seems to go.
I wouldn’t buy a Tesla, and really don’t need solar, or want to go to space, … but I like my Hybrid.
Even though I never was on Twitter, I would say the changes to X are better, …. but still don’t want it.
He might be a nice guy, … He gave Trump a chance to come back.
He shows what is possible in America !
An from what I’ve read doesn’t go along with lifelong swamp creatures.
He might well be one of a few who will rescue this country from woke liberal democrats trying to permanently take over our country.
I think he’s neat!
Erratic. Lethargic. Overfortunate. Nefarious.
Misinformed. Unworthy. Self-absorbed. Keenless.
It’s OK. No matter how much they try, some people never quite master the nuances of sarcasm. But, really. Don’t stop trying.😉
‘Equity! Elon Challenges Kamala to Twitter/X Talk’

Will she accept or will cowardliness shine thru ? ? ?
Will she accept? I think the more pressing matter is can his platform handle the traffic?
I respect Elon Musk! Brilliant man!. He took a lot of unfair heat for pointing out the censorship that Twitter was engaging in against conservative viewpoints. They were totally slanted. An interesting thing is he was the darling of liberals because of his electric cars but now they hate him because he has -what’s nowadays considered -conservative views. He has common sense which liberals lack.
Love the guy! The smartest and wealthiest African American in the world.
I am enjoying the fact there is someone to challenge the status quo. I think he is a Kennedy Democrat and would have stayed there but the party went way left so he was left with a decision to follow blindly or pick his own path. I am glad he did the latter. I still kind of view him like Edison as standing on the backs of real genius and absorbing the spoils but I actually think he isn’t as narcissistic and he may be simply having fun. Kind of a weird wholesomeness to his current antics, maybe grown???? or maybe had enough and hit F@#K it. Either way I appreciate his contribution.
I think he’s a genius. Full of ideas. A little bit of an able oddball sometimes. The semi-truck he made is hideous, and the pickup truck not far behind. Do better next time. I’d love to meet him, shake his hand and just feel his energy.
The libbies loved him when he sold them a green car,then when he talked sense about the economy and voting republican it made their heads explode,they dont know which way to go with this.what a great mind *uck.
They’ve elected to go with censorship. They don’t agree with him, therefore everything he says is deemed to be mis/dis-information.
That goofball journalist begging KGP to stop the Musk/Trump interview is indicative of their fear. And that fear is based on their true understanding that it’s not mis/disinformation. However the hollow argument is all they’ve got.
Plus they gloat when his Space X rockets crash. Not especially a proper American sentiment.
I think that he has a brilliant mind and ability to enthuse others into pushing the paradigm. I think his admission that he is on the autism spectrum contributes to these abilities, but also limits his effectiveness at verbal communication. He can write, tweet, text very convincingly, but he’s often hard to listen to.
I also believe that he is genuinely concerned with the future of the world and wants to do what he can with what he has to try to make our lives and the future better. He’s a problem solver and has the intellect and means to propose viable solutions. Once the conversation is started, often real solutions emerge.
So ironic that the democrats hate the guy that made electric vehicles cool. Nothing but a bunch of haters. They only want to push EVs on us if we don’t like them.
One of the smartest there is, quirky, but has more ambition that a thousand Dems, willing to take risks …he should run for office.
A combination of Thomas Edison and P.T. Barnum, with a dash of Rainman to smooth out the edges.
What office?
You know he can’t be President, but if he was totally nuts and wanted to abandon his exciting mega productive business & invention world, what hum drum, boring government job would he be best suited for?
Musk got where he is today because of his daddy’s money. His factories are plagued with racism, and unsafe working conditions. He prevents employees from being unionized.
Elon Musk is the riches billionaire on earth, and a genius to boot, who cares about humanity, treats his workers fairly, a great father, loves his country and Trump. All and all a great human being…. don’t believe me just ask him.
What’s with his impregnating every thirty and under female?
Boys only get their smart gene from the mother.
Bumper sticker seen on a Tesla: “I bought mine before he went crazy”.
Like Michael Jackson…gifted, talented and weird as heck.
Without the deflated nose.
Conflicted. I admire his innovation, he certainly think outside the box, and is willing to take chances. However, some accounts how he treat his employee’s does not come off well, some other issues as well with X.
I don’t hate him, nor do I worship him.
Mooches off the government. Desperate for validation. Walking Dunning-Kruger poster boy. Good and fooling a bunch of troglodytes into thinking he’s done anything but take credit for other people’s inventions.
I don’t know the man.
