Why do people give that douche the time of day?

Because he owns a bunch of shit. That’s literally it. Nobody would give a single shit about him if he didn’t have money. I saw it put very eloquently like this:

Elon Musk is so poor that all he has is money.

his Twitter feed is full of things that would make you turn your head and act as it you don't hear anything if it came from a random person on the subway. the only difference between this guy and the "crazy people" you see outside is that this guy has money he doesn't deserve.

edit: i don't know why i said Twitter feed. this includes everything he says in interviews as well

Damn that’s a good line.

His money gives him influence and power. That's the real reason.
