In an Age of Rage, Musk is now eclipsing Donald Trump as Public Enemy No.
Here is the column: This week, Elton John publicly renounced the Rocket Man — no, not the 1972 song, but Elon Musk, whom he called an “a**hole” in an awards ceremony.
Therefore, all progress is made by unreasonable people.” With all of his idiosyncrasies and eccentricities, Elon Musk just might be that brilliantly unreasonable person.
Below is my column in The Hill on the Musk mania now sweeping over the media with pundits and politicians unleashing unhinged attacks on the billionaire.
This week, the California Coastal Commission rejected a request from the Air Force for additional launches from Vandenberg Air Force Base.
Sir Elton, 77, is only the latest among celebrities and pundits to denounce Musk for his support of former president Donald Trump and his opposition to censorship.
Yet neither the national security value nor the demands for SpaceX services appear to hold much interest for officials like Commissioner Gretchen Newsom (no relation to California’s governor, Gavin Newsom): “Elon Musk is hopping about the country, spewing and tweeting political falsehoods and attacking FEMA while claiming his desire to help the hurricane victims with free Starlink access to the internet.” Newsom is the former political director for the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 569.
