There used to be a polite way to call this out, the "Steve Jobs's reality distortion field".
Musk is probably closest, but he’s become so involved in partisan politics it makes his field far less effective at distorting reality.
He can do and say a lot of shit because he will still be viewed as real-life Iron Man, because in some ways he kind of is.
He doesn't have a RDF but has Kardashev Scale Intent (KSI).
The lobbyists in the political fray are out to steal his value for money lunch despite his demonstrated effectiveness, over and over again.
Jobs couldn't even engage the politicians to give away or at discount the Apple ][ to education.
(It didn't help that they couldn't point to a single user facing feature.)
Or that the App Store lock in is for our safety. When anyone who wanted that particular safety, could choose to continue using there store exclusively.
Etc.
He just does not have it. No field. No spiraling eyes. Perhaps he should grow a beard and wave around a tobacco pipe. Works for some.
