    Think about it this way.

    He trashed the reputation he gained amongst well educated millenials to look good in the eyes of the same people who voted for Trump.

    What’s more important as a billionaire narcissist? Constantly having to navigate your support base, a support base you inherently disagree with, or developing one that will support you no matter what you do?

    Idk, food for thought.

      Yes, but his business model’s primary target is well educated millennials. I know I’m not the only one who went from thinking of getting a Tesla as my next car to looking at what competitors have.

        No reason he couldn’t be both stupid and malicious.
