Whoop, new Nate Silver notion dropped. Don’t take the bait.

"I think he's gone a little too far with Musk. I don't trust the guy." I'm telling you I'm hearing these murmurs from family members who are Trumpers. It may not matter, but I think we're going to start to see his core base fracrure

I was reading "All the Worst Humans" (libro.fm/audiobooks/9...) The author makes an offhand comment that Elon Musk's wealth, and, it follows, power, has been propped up by some deep pocketed people and groups (he name checks the Saudis) and this is such a salient point in our present time.
