It was all for show anyway. He got to be the first trillionaire, and his friends got to sell at the high while leaving pension managers and rubes holding the bag. Hell he probably sold a good bit himself to reinvest in some other scheme. It was a pump and dump scam facilitated by the market.

Invest in a Fail Upwards billionaire, lose value in your investment.

Remove Elon Musk from SpaceX, watch your investment grow.

Keep up the good work. Bankrupt this damn Nazi.
