Is he like Medvedev of the US? You know, the crazy guy so the boss looks more normal?

No, Elon's got the real power this time. Trump's demented and checked out, so long as he's getting money and enough attention he doesn't care. Most of congress doesn't appear to care if they're still getting their checks and investment returns. Elon truly believes in the supremacist checklist he's getting done. And no one with the power is doing anything about it.

He is the boss, as are the other technocrats he represents.
