Elon Musk's words that have left the United States speechless

Elon Musk's public image has shifted from being admired to being surrounded by constant controversies. His reputation as a visionary leader in the technology and electric car industries has taken a serious hit in recent times. While Tesla faces an economic crisis and a loss of trust, Musk has starred in a new controversial episode, this time directed at Laurene Powell Jobs, widow of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs.

Tesla at a Low Point and Musk Under Pressure

Musk's company, Tesla, is experiencing one of its worst moments in the United States: sales have dropped significantly and investors are showing distrust. Some Tesla car owners have even reacted by putting stickers on their vehicles apologizing for having bought the car "before Elon went crazy." The stock value has fallen, and the company is facing serious problems, with government contracts that could be lost.

Meanwhile, Musk seems more focused on his personal and political controversies than on saving his company. This decline has been accompanied by a drop in Musk's public image. What was once seen as brilliance and innovation is now criticized as erratic and confrontational, earning the dislike of many sectors of society.

The Confrontation with Steve Jobs's Widow

The most recent episode involving Musk came after the publication of an article in The Atlantic, owned by Laurene Powell Jobs, Steve Jobs's widow. Powell described Musk's time at the White House as a disaster. In response, Musk harshly attacked Laurene, stating that "Steve would be very disappointed."

But it didn't stop there. He used his new name on the social network X, "Kekius Maximus," and an AI-caused image emulating a Roman centurion, launching a digital war full of sarcasm and mocking emojis. The situation became even more surreal when Elon Musk joked with users that Steve Jobs's ghost should "haunt" his widow from the grave.

All this happened on a platform that, since Elon Musk acquired it in 2022, has lost one fifth of its daily active users in the United States. By contrast, The Atlantic, led by Powell, increased subscribers, surpassing 1M last year.

A Fall from Grace and the Loss of Allies

The article that irritated Musk portrays his time at the White House as a failure, where he ended up isolated and at odds with key figures in the current U.S. government. It recounts a scene in which the Treasury Secretary shouted "Fuck you!" several times in the presence of former President Trump. This anecdote reflects the difficult political and personal situation of the magnate.

To make matters worse, Musk showed controversial behavior in a recent interview with Bloomberg, where he called journalist Mishal Husain an "NPC" for questions he considered standard. "NPC" refers to a non-playable character that appears in video games and is not controlled by a player, but by the game's system itself. These actions reflect a lack of self-criticism that has caused confusion and rejection among the public and the media.
