    Put a moron in charge, get the outcome you deserve. It’s everyday at this point I’m glad I’m not American. What a dangerous place to live.

    The narcissistic moron did exactly the same when he took over twitter. He fired a bunch of people whom he later found out were necessary, and attempted to hire them back. Of course the narcissistic moron never learnt from that experience.

    Imagine how unfathomably stupid you have to be to start messing with strategic deterrent. It’s just such an ubelievably stupid thing to do.

    Well, could be malice too but that’d meant that Musk was really deep in Russia’s and/or China’s pocket
