Musk needed Trump and DOGE to gut the regulators who were holding his companies accountable to the law. Notice he hasn’t cut a single Tesla or SpaceX government contract, but he had no issue slashing cancer research for kids.

He's also cancelled internal projects that compete with his companies, fired people on those projects so he can hire them cut-rate, "cancelled" contracts with his competitors, and reassigned a competitor's contract to SpaceX, telling DOGE to find the money without a paper trail.
While Musk is of course making sure his money is safe what he's doing is way more than just corruption (its also that) its a nightmare vision of the most on-line poisoned mind, a kind of Anarcho-Nazism, where Musk honestly believes if he kills everything the government does,
from Social Security to cancer research, people who he's sure are either brainwashed or payed off to be liberal will just stop it and agree with his "common sense" views on race and gender (ie be racist, antisemitic, sexist, queer phobic) and we can enter an Objectivist+Nazi race Science utopia
where his tech companies will replace the functions of government and he'll be the God King most special boy the way Ayn Rand promised (but she'd hate him because he's a Nazi and idiot)
