Elon Musk's financial interests put him in a position of having his own personal foreign policy, but new reporting shows that whether it's manufacturing in China or the Starlink network being used in Ukraine, Musk’s decisions can run counter to stated US policy.

Remember folks, the rich only care about one thing and one thing only, getting richer. A bunch of these shit heads got together and started actively planning on overthrowing the US government because the election of FDR was going to affect their interests.

    I'd argue Musk cared more about being able to bloviate on Twitter than he did about getting richer from that transaction.

    Of course there's the very real possibility that he was foolish enough to believe he could make money on the deal.
