If he's being real, Musk needs to start sharing what he saw go down in the White House

He's been with Trump 24/7 for many months, even before the inauguration, at Mar-a-lago and the White House and other places. He surely has some first hand dirt on Trump and the other people in this Administration and Congress and can report on what they actually say and do behind the scenes.

Sharing is caring, Elon.

Why else bring up the Epstein files. Hard to come back from that one.

But yes, Musk is certainly doing this for his own reasons. Doesn't mean it's coordinated with Trump's interests.

Liberals aren't suddenly going to start buying Tesla's again, no matter what he says.

Musk likes revenge, but he also likes money.

This might serve both. Might not.

Musk is just playing the same game Trump plays. Bully, bluff, extort.
