After all, how do you make nice with a guy, if you’re Musk, after you’ve mercilessly ridiculed his baby (Trump’s “big beautiful bill”), suggested Trump will cause a recession, and that he should be impeached, while stating outright that Trump’s Justice Department hasn’t released the Jeffrey Epstein files because Trump is in them? This, of course, has caused lots of MAGAbot confusion (as in the case of Fox’s Will Cain practically crying that his two dads were breaking up), while Elon unfollowed Trump’s henchman Stephen Miller (whose wife recently went to work for Elon — a dangerous thing to do, if you don’t want to end up pregnant). Which is why despite all the punditry’s chin-tugging about how this fight could be bad on all kinds of fronts — from our space program (which is now largely outsourced to Elon’s Space X), to help for Ukraine, to just generally advertising American dysfunction — I can’t fight the delight that comes from watching this death match, so I won’t.
