That would imply that he understands that Trump and co is an outlier on the right.

You misunderstand.
Trump is no longer useful or MAGA enough for MAGA.
Elon wants to become THE MAGA. Or maybe just the grand daddy of MAGA.

Point being, Republicans are doing what they always do. Cut taxes for the rich and spend money like drunks.
MAGA wanted to gut and destroy the government. AKA, not spend money. Congress didn't get the memo.
So if Trump stands with the Republicans on spending money, Trump is no longer MAGA enough for MAGA. Thus the split.

Yea yea, I got all that. The cards at their face value.

Though Elmo doesnt want to ban immigration and he wants globalism. Not really MAGA.

It could be they just disagreed on the loot distribution and they're going heads up with Trump having the cable magas and Elmo the Twitter magas. Fight.

What could turn out to be real interesting in that scenario is who Thiel decides to back, the King with Palantir or the Joker of the paypal mafia (again, probably with Palantir).

I expect most of the response will be "we always knew Elon was a RINO!"

Elon's crimes are electing this President, and trying to fulfill Project 2025's campaign promises.
It's actually the Republican Congress that is failing to be MAGA enough.
And for some reason Trump is listening to them, which is hilarious.
 
By definition, Donald Trump IS MAGA. It's nonsense to argue Donny isn't sufficiently MAGA compared to Elon.
Trump isn't listening to Congressional GOP; they are following his lead with the big, beautiful bill.

So will the board members make a move on Elon?

they're all his friends and family, so I think it's still too early for that.

Most of Wall Street believes in an Elon RDF, that the stock price is pumped up so long as he's CEO. If he quits or is dismissed, you're likely to see a massive drop in the share price.
