"Decades of malnutrition and no sun have carved them into Slavic adonises."

This is actually cool as hell.

Shock of the century: businessman president notorious for not honoring deals as businessman refuses to honor deals as president.

It was a funny joke and Barron Trump is only technically a kid.

You're describing maybe a few dozen people here.

I sincerely doubt there are enough of that sort of nihilist failson to actually make a difference, much less be "a driving force."

Not sure appealing to the decency of the person shameless enough to write that drivel is going to work out so great.

Bracket the financial gain off to one side for a minute. Say someone convinces Trump that federal investment in AI research is a good idea for some reason and research grants that will last beyond the end of Trump's presidency are eventually awarded. Someone like Musk could benefit immensely from something like that…

Already being rich generally doesn't stop rich folks from trying to get even richer. Even if you put that off to the side, Musk probably wants to be around when futuristic shit goes down so he can claim he had some kind of a role in it. He'd be doing the same shit if Hillary won, only she'd probably be more…

What doesn't benefit Musk? Having the president's ear is basically a license to print money at a certain point.

If Trump follows through on his plan to store toxic waste in elementary schools, I'm going to have to razz him the next time we're playing a round of golf.

I urge you to reconsider.

Spent half an hour offering increasingly huge sums of money to get his nose back, wouldn't accept the explanation that no one really took his nose.

Love to be a techno-solipsist who is hailed by the media as a genius for his groundbreaking work in Matrix studies.

There is basically no way he isn't that stupid.

Barron Trump got upset during The Fugitive because he thought Harrison Ford actually pulled someone's arm off.

Well, treating the people whose life essence you're draining to forestall your own body's aging process with anything but icy detachment really complicates matters.

Trump also had a role as Gurning Windbag in Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. He's an institution.

As far as we know Trump thinks Elon Musk is an aftershave brand.

Wow, Elon Musk coming through with the principled stance. I guess I thought Trump's proposal to blow up the sun or asserting his right to have sex with any US citizen's wife might be the final straw, but as long as you draw the line somewhere.
