That's a non-sequitur.
> Elon is clearly capable but I get it, people disagree with his politics so they pretend he not credible at all?
Exactly wrong, and I'd turn that around and say that people tolerate his nonsense because they agree with his politics, and defend him beyond reason.
All I'm saying is people should be judged on what they say and do and the relationship between the two. They shouldn't be excused from lying, abuse and dissembling just because they're successful in business.
