Is Elon Musk going to turn into the same sort of joke that Trump has become? | Arwa Mahdawi

Musk's cult-like fans haven't entirely lost faith in their leader yet, but it's getting a lot harder for him to keep up his image

I hate it when I have to do this but here goes: I was wrong. I was very, very wrong. Back in October, when Elon Musk's $44bn acquisition of Twitter was finalized, I predicted that the social network would become a lot nastier but ultimately keep chugging along. I assumed Musk had a couple of brain cells and a little self-restraint; I assumed he wasn't going to drive away Twitter's advertisers by making erratic business decisions; I assumed he was going to be at least somewhat sensible. After all, he did have $44bn on the line.
