12. They may actually succeed in causing the Trump Administration to crash and burn prior to Trump's inauguration.

That'd be a first.

Trump needs to break with Musk before Musk breaks Trump.
I suggest Trump's day one activities include arresting Musk for seditious activities. It's more important for him to neuter Musk than anything else on his agenda right now, and Musk has had a lot of meetings with foreign leaders that could be used to charge him with conveying defense information to them.
It might be a railroad job, but that's what Trump is all about. False charges, shame trial, and long prison sentence is just what Trump needs to do to block Musk's takeover of the US government.
Anyone who thinks that Musk is a serious threat just needs to listen to what Musk is saying. He's talking like he already runs the show.
