This is so weird, did he miscalculate how intense the backlash would be? or he truly doesn't care?

To me, it's pretty funny. It's like we're being told "hey, don't worry, this is the world's smartest guy, and he's going to, in a heartbeat, examine every dollar of spending and tell us what to cut. And oh yeah, he didn't anticipate that Tesla might be hurt by his actions."

Never meet your heroes indeed.

I have a feeling that if Einstein, Newton, Leonardo da Vinci, Churchill or really any of the great historical figures had access to Twitter, there legacies (or lack thereof) would be very different today.

"Never meet your heroes indeed."

they have different values on life because they literally built different, thrown people at hard times and that would change people see life
