And might be non-existent if he defies Trump.

Musk going down in a spending spree of flames sounds good, though.

Trump doesn't give a sh*t. He isn't running for anything in 2028, anyway. Musk wants to continue control of the former Republican Party. All he needs are the MAGA folks and he will continue to lead the Fascists Party.
