Anyone else see this as more of Trump's usual "flooding the zone" tactic of generating enough stupid headlines that people don't notice he's continuing to increase the wealth gap?
Elon knew as well as anyone who Trump associates with and that didn't stop him from backing him. The guy is a deadbeat dad, doge was a complete failure run by college dropouts, he's so high all the time that he talks like a retired boxer with an 0-15 record now. If someone told me Elon and Trump were working together to distract people from the ongoing issues I'd probably say "no shit"
I don't think he's bothering to do a "tactic". Why would he care? he's just surrounded himself with sycophants and morons because anyone else wouldn't work with him, and so there's a lot of bizarre drama.
Humans want there to be order and control in their world, so we look for the plan behind the discord.
They're not hiding anything because they don't need to. The people in power who could stop them have no interest in doing so.
The man with a long history of fucking over and alienating everyone who works with him teamed up with the fragile billionaire who finds success when his employees tiptoe around him and manage him to avoid his shitty temper, immature attitude and tendency to call people pedophiles the moment they offend him.
Shockingly, with their powers combined and no one to effectively manage them....
Unfortunately it's confirmed that he is told to make a bunch of noise

That's both unrelated to this, and a different tactic entirely.
Making policy changes so quickly that it's difficult to make press releases about or legally challenge is very different from "get someone to publicly accuse you of pedophilia".
They don't need to distract you, because you don't matter. They do need to make it difficult to address the issues by people with the power to stop him.
So no, that article doesn't confirm that he's been told to make a lot of noise in the least.
