Joy Reid: “You’ve been spending a decade insisting Elon Musk is genius. When you hear him talk you realize he’s actually an idiot. You keep telling them, ‘But he invented Tesla,’ when he didn’t, he just bought it. Two other white dudes invented Tesla, they’re geniuses. Elon just bought it and now people think he’s a genius.
