Elon Musk’s pro-Trump group does not choose the winners of its $1 million-a-day giveaway to registered voters at random, but instead picks people who would be good spokespeople for its agenda, a lawyer for the billionaire said on Monday.

      This isn’t Trump. This is an Elon Musk situation. The law can, and will, fuck Elon over. The doofus isn’t anywhere as slippery as Trump.
