i really don't believe that elon has seen the light of adolf hitler. tactical dogwhiste, maybe. he's attached himself to trump because dei has hurt him personally through his family and because government subsidies are the lifeblood of his companies. maybe he also believes his own hype about mars and sees trump as an actual leader whom he can influence to feed him useful resources and people for his projects. that doesn't mean he's down with pro-american protectionism (without exemptions for his companies), or stopping india monopolizing h1bs. i'll say that he does at least seem to be genuinely pro-trump and pro-america, unlike prism/in-q-tel vampires like zuckerberg, ellison, altman or andreesson. they'd be in martha's vineyard right now begging obama for forgiveness if kamala won.
