29. Not mutually exclusive

Musk has created a special place in hell for himself in the minds of most Americans. And Americans are quite righteously in an "Eat The Billionaires" frame of mind. It is smart to go directly after Musk. And even if Trump claims to separate from him, make Trump carry that baggage for the next 4 years.

There are millions of Americans who will not respond well to attacks on Trump, but Musk is absolutely loathsome in every respect. So we can get to Trump through Musk -- or the ghost of Musk as the case may be.

And regarding the scenario where Trump tries to throw Musk under the bus. just ignore that and keep on hammering Musk + Trump. Look at the mileage the Republicans are still getting out of Soros, who has been a relatively small player the past decade.
