No, the two men could not be any more different. You are the victim of advertising hype. Musk has not come up with any revolutionary ideas that can compare with the three phase electric motor and power grid that will change the course of human history. And Tesla was not a successful business shyster.
I always seem to screw up my html when one finger typing on a self correcting phone. Maybe that is what happened with Musk’s Twitter outbursts.
