I feel like we’re going to look back in a couple years and mark this as the beginning of the collapse of Tesla. Musk is already spread thin, now he’s so unfocused and undisciplined that he’s unable to stop himself from buying an irrelevant social media company as an expensive hobby. It’s the height of hubris.

Imagine Tim Cook were to take a loan on his Apple stock to take over Whole Foods because he doesn't like their avocados.

How could you possibly know the personal limits of another person? How do you know he's unfocused and undisciplined?

So are you admitting that Elon musk is solely responsible for Tesla’s success?

Because whenever Tesla has a huge accomplishment, people always come out of the woodwork and claim Elon is Not the founder and all he does is take credit for everyone else’s work.

Was The Washington Post the tipping point where Amazon started to collapse?

I think we're approaching a point in the lifespan of Tesla where is can stand on its own merit and no longer requires Musk to continue making a ridiculous amount of money. However, Musk is integral to the continued innovation and success, the same as Steve Jobs was to Apple. Under Tim Cook, Apple continued to thrive, albeit in a different way.

Regardless, no way will Musk run Twitter on a day-to-day basis, he'll remove the board, replace the CEO with someone he trusts, likely get Jack involved again, and a lot of developers will leave, leaving the company in a better position financially. Musk will likely just guide functionality and policy decisions from afar.
