Tit-for-tat, justifiable maybe in terms of a simple understanding of game theory, but not justifiable in terms of looking like you're cooperating with authorities.

Another red flag that Musk considers himself a ruler, and not merely a leader, which is after all, just a citizen.

We the europeans voted a group of MEPs, who voted to approve such regulation. Or do you also vote every single law your country passes?

With senile grandpa you are referring to trump falling asleep in meetings or not remembering which deals he signed?
