For me he's even more interesting because he's in the tech industry and the tech industry as a whole tends to swing on the left most of the time, so seeing him as a techie and as a geek go against the grain is very interesting and fun to watch.
It's the whole concept of "return on investment".
Both parties are susceptible to thinly veiled bribery...Republicans and Democrats alike. AKA "donors"

Now currently, with options trading votes can be had for stock options and/or stocks themselves....a few trades with insider information (which congress is not prosecuted for) can make them literally millionaires from pennies of investment.
Which brings up what has happened with Twitter....
Content creators get a larger portion of the revenue sharing than any other social media platform. X pays more for clicks and views than YouTube or Facebook or TicTok or Reddit. 97% is impossible for them.
And with now the rather loose rules of moderation....just about anything can come across your feed. Anything from ads for porn looking like an ordinary post to some of the most gruesome war scenes or fight scenes available. Nevermind the prejudice and conspiracy theorists being allowed free reign. Sure there are "community notes" but they are slow and don't work that well.
Then there's bootleg movies shown in full lenth...anything you want. (That the owners aren't savvy on protecting)
Usually they are coming from Telegram....
News sites are faster and more accurate and visual without the filtering that legacy news media. You can get reports almost in real-time as the events unfold. The legacy News can't compete...even though they are 24/7.
It's a filthy world put there....unrestricted social media is the filthiest which is what X truly is.
