He looks like a parody of a sleazy used car salesman you’d see in a bad comedy movie.

Just my opinion

That's the exact word I said to my wife when we saw his tv spot. That guy is creepy looking. And his $4747 gimmick is stupid. Plus, a whistleblower says Johnson filed falsified petitions.

He looks and sounds like that kind of a person. Great for a business that is in trouble.

Not good for a head of government. Government is a kind of utility, not a risky manufacturing opportunity.

Elon Musk does not run a utility. He can cut out people in his industry and lose maybe some government contracts. But when he cut out government employees, he opened us up to viruses like ebola. Trump in his first term cut out our people in China a few months before covid came out.

He is also a bit creepy looking.

Government should use the money from people for people not make a profit. Business has to make a profit.
