Sure, he borrowed tons of money from the US government, but he also paid it all back with interest.

He also privatized space flight, and saved NASA an absolute ton of money already, and immeasurable amounts going into the future, I'm sure.

Yep. This dude is doing things that literally all of the “experts” said couldn’t be done. Just like my President.

Even NASA cucked out on explaining why the Boeing craft failed to reach the ISS. They had hardware and software problems IN ADDITION TO not setting a fucking clock in the spacecraft to the right time.

NASA's investigation blamed themselves because they devoted too much of their personnel auditing and micromanaging SpaceX. Because Boeing was the "trusted" company, they were given 4X the money and free reign to operate as they saw fit, thus their craft failed...

Liberal logic: You didn't handhold me. You gave me too much money and freedom, so you didn't catch my mistakes. If's your fault I failed.

Look at the R&D his other ventures are doing with advanced neural interfaces (early applications will be prosthetics, try cybernetic ones) and even the Boring Company.

The guy has a bit of a midas touch when it comes to choosing where to apply his efforts. I find him very inspiring and entertaining, and thats a rare combo to pull off.

Which is a lot more than those who got a useless degree in liberal sharts can say.
