Unless there is a constitutional ammendment, that wouldn't happen since he is not a natural born citizen.
Edit: Had no idea that one of his companies merged with another to form PayPal.

Playing games counts as work if he gets useful ideas/thoughts out of it. Same thing goes doubly for psychedelic experiences and getting high.
Creative work isn't the same thing as mopping floors or cobalt mining - a visionary is at work whenever they're conscious and occasionally when they're not.
Edison and Dalí both exploited dreaming as a means of coming up with new ideas.
This is why employees don't generally own any IP they come up with at any point while working at a corporation, regardless of where or when the idea comes to them.

Right forgot that he is actually South African.
Yeah, he could've retired after the PayPal deal

I support billionaires playing video games, what it tells me is there's work and also break time. We know how smart Elon is, and likes working, so it's interesting that he plays video games.

Since we are the same age, I'm not surprised he is a gamer as we seem to be at that age when the fledgling console makers started to expand their audience to eventually become more mainstream.

Based on his performance in Path of Exile 2, which is a game that needs a lot more strategy, time investment, and skill level compared to Diablo 4, I think it's likely he's account sharing.

I cried laughing....thats so good!
He is absolutely clueless about any game mechanics, but running around with god gear in hardcore endgame and naming his map tab "Elon's map".

The top comment is gold "Is this how the tesla and spaceX engineers feel when he talks about their technology?"

Yeah, Elon made the useless thing with tech that didn't work that merged with PayPal.

Until today, I didn't know Musk was also a fan of Ass Cream: Unity.

D4 campaign is great and I liked the DLC too. The seasonal stuff just felt a little thin to me.

Oof, that is actually pretty funny. Then again, Elon's whole modus operandi is taking credit for things other people have done, so it tracks. As a D4 player myself, it was already fairly clear that he absolutely got boosted there too.

i love it, i thought the D4 players we a bitter bunch when Elon started dusting them at their own profession (jobless at home playing D4 all day is considered a profession these days...right?) But boy oh boy, are the POE2 sweats a whole different breed. Really can't stand that Elon is now curb stomping them at their game as well lol. Love it, so many tears, so much bitter. Makes for great TV

Or he is socially engineering stupid people into believing him. Makes for great reality.

or he's trolling the sweats in D4 and POE2 to stir up their rage...

Given that he was using the broken Spiritborn build that completely trivializes anything in the game, which also doesn't even really take that much effort to put together I gave him the benefit of the doubt that he could do that, but you're probably right.
Anyone familiar with how PoE2 works will recognize immediately that Elon has no idea what he's talking about when he's describing his gear and how "low level" it is because the level requirement of gear has nothing to do with how good it is, unlike in Diablo 4. He also plays very slowly, even for someone talking while streaming, and at that rate of play, it's mathematically impossible to be as high level as he is.

To be fair, I used Spiritborn myself in S6 as well, but it still takes a silly amount of time to grind the gear to actually be competitive in the leaderboard. To get the build to a point where you already clear and trivialize all content, yeah, not so much... but to push the leaderboard? You're gonna need the good shit to compete.
And for that, you're either sinking content creator hours into the game and doing nothing else (well, it's not like Musk is doing anything anyway, am I right), or you're swiping your credit card and buying boosts and gold/4GAs. Even now a 4GA Kepeleke is in tens of billions of gold, which you will not have unless you grind your face off or RMT.

He wants to be loved so bad and doesn't realize that just playing the game and streaming would have been enough. It's like when you play a sport or have a hobby and the new person with money to burn buys the best equipment and tries to seem cool for having it.

I don't even dislike Musk but there's just no way he can be ranked that high with the sheer number of players out there with no lives that just play this game all day.

It's actually sad what's happened to Musk. I used to quite admire him, before it started to become very apparent what kind of man he is. How pathetic do you have to be as the richest man in the world to want to fake being good at a fucking video game?
The idea that he's successful just because of the people behind him feels more and more believable all the time.

Despite a nominal degree, Musk is not an actual inventor, an engineer, or a scientist behind any of the achievements, and has never been more than a shopping channel salesman, convincing people he's got the product and investors that they should pour money into his ventures. That is a very important talent too of course, one that is certainly useful for helming corporations, but his problem is that he doesn't stay in his lane and do what he's good at, because he's convinced that he is a genius - and that's because everyone keeps saying he is a genius. High on his own supply, you could say.
There are a lot of smart people in Tesla/Spacex/Neuralink - lots of them - and with them the companies are doing some really amazing things. However, it's more about the smart people doing their best in spite of Musk. His ideas/demands are the ones that get in the way of the actual smart people doing their thing, like Cyberstuck, or destroying any promise of FSD actually being good ever (but he'll still sell it to you like it's the best thing, even though it's already way behind in autonomous driving tech).
Murrican corporate space and mindset is just infatuated with the idea of a strongman superhero, and corporations and their achievements usually coalesce into their CEO. Microsoft is Bill Gates, Apple is Steve Jobs, Amazon is Jeff Bezos, Tesla is Elon Musk, Nvidia is Jensen Huang, Meta is Mark Zuckerberg. It doesn't matter if those people had anything to do with the products or their development, it's still going to be their achievement. Kind of like political populism in a way, simple answers and heuristics to reduce the complexity of a topic or an issue are more digestible than thinking about the whole.

Correction: he pays others to make him money and to play Diablo 4 for him, so he can troll and impress Elon simps.
