"Elon Musk has "deep disdain" for Donald Trump, who he believes is a "con man" and "the world's champion of bull****," according to a sprawling new biography from Walter Isaacson.
The hotly-anticipated book from the famed biographer of Steve Jobs examines the life and career of Musk, the billionaire entrepreneur whose ventures include Tesla, SpaceX, and now X, formerly known as Twitter. Isaacson, who spent two years interviewing and shadowing Musk, delved into his complex views on U.S. politics which his biographer describes as hatred for Trump but also increasing hostility towards the left.
Musk's turn to the right has manifested publicly in an open embrace of far-right accounts on X. But despite his MAGA bedfellows, Musk has long held disdain for Trump.
In December 2016, Musk had a private meeting with Trump, during which he was "baffled" by the then-president-elect's comments about Tesla and NASA.
"He seems kind of nuts," Musk said after the meeting, according to Isaacson, "but he may turn out okay."
On the contrary: Musk "concluded that Trump as president was no different than he was as a candidate," Isaacson wrote. "The buffoonery was not just an act."
How Many Cabinet Members, Republicans and Successful People have to tell you Trump sucks
That's piss poor analysis.
It's from Walter Isaacson's new book which he has been promoting all over the media the last few days.
Still, it reflects that Musk has interacted with Trump and quickly realized he was not a serious person or leader.
