    The sad thing is that shit like this is more likely to get Elon Musk out than Congress, because all anyone seems to care about is Trump’s ego.

      That is unironically the best possible strategy. This admin isn’t exactly monolithic. The main thing they all have in common is that they’re filthy rich and want to be even richer, but apart from that many of them have massive egos and god complexes all of their own. Driving a wedge between them is logically the best way forward.

      Same way Bannon got ousted last time. Trump’s easy to hit. Hurt or stroke his ego in specific ways. He HATED ‘president Bannon.’
