He's an innovator / dreamer / entrepreneur at best. I doubt he's an engineer, scientist or any of that ... he is a visionary, but he sure as hell didn't figure out all the Tesla and or rocketry shit on his own, ppl/professionals helped him mostly. Albert Einstein and Nikola Tesla figured out /and build shit on their own (essentially)... them folks are geniuses.

Even that is generous. He is good at buying others innovation and tying them to his brand. 2 years ago I would’ve said he was also good at his own PR (I was wrong lol).

True. I won't argue with that. 👍
