Imagine wasting your life by worshiping the rich.

Everybody who has worked with Musk says that he has to be distracted when he goes to Tesla, SpaceX, or whatever, because otherwise, he'll just cause problems for the adults who are actually working. He has no idea how to run a business, and basically just publicly lies to inflate the value of his businesses, and relies on the fact that there are no consequences for rich people lying.

Every semi-intelligent person who has worked with Trump says that he's one of the dumbest people they've ever met.

One key to massive financial success in the United States is being too stupid to worry about the consequences of fraud and having enough money that you can likely avoid those consequences. Trump and Musk are just the luckiest two of a large group of rich idiots.
