What is going on with Musk right now reminds me somewhat of Donald Trump in the eighties and nineties. At the time, I concluded Trump was a horrible, lawless person. When he ran for president, I knew even before his infamous elevator ride that there was no way I would vote for him.

Really couldn't agree with you more!! Trump...Musk...others of their ilk...though differing by degree and often individual motives, all seem cut from the same ugly bolt of cloth.
At one time, I think it was a common perception among us little people that rich people could simply 'buy' their justice, and as much of it and the exact kind that they needed or wanted. More and more it seems that they don't have to reach too far into their wallets, if at all (with the possible exception of Trump), since 'justice' amounts to whatever they want it to be for themselves in real time, any time, and the law and the rest of us who respect and live by it be damned.

Musk is a horrible, lawless person as well.
For me it isn't their wealth that offends me. It is their VULGARITY.
