    I mean he has been called a real world Tony Stark for the last decade. Maybe that went straight to his mushy brain and he is still on that high. Back in the day he listened to experts, now whenever he’s at SpaceX they employ “Elon handlers” who just nod to every suggestion and then try to get rid of him.

    He got too much positive press and lost it.

      God knows how a wannabe Steve Jobs who bought into all of his companies ever got compared to Tony Stark.

      He looked like a real world Tony Stark when he was surrounded by teams of smart people doing all the hard parts and PR for him.

      What we’re seeing now is pure unfiltered Musk. He was probably always like this, but now he’s off the leash.
