Elon Musk lies.
That is, like Trump he deliberately and wittingly deceives. Compare Cybertruck will be much safer per mile than other trucks, both for occupants and pedestrians. with I am the most transparent president in history.
Those lies extend to his outrageous space and industry goals like mars colonies and space-based data centers. Or the hyperloop.
He probably sees it as salesmanship the way Trump sees his own lies as the art of the deal.
And when Musk denies the death toll of DOGE ending USAID, he's lying to himself.
