  • These are emerging dictatorial powers replacing the lawful order that has served Americans well for nearly 250 years.

The article by Brian Howey discusses the potential implications of Elon Musk's influence on American politics, particularly in relation to former President Donald Trump. It explores how Musk's actions, like his tweet about making a "Doge" statue in Washington D.C., could be seen as part of a broader trend of "constitutional disorder." This disorder is characterized by the erosion of traditional political norms and the rise of unconventional political figures and actions, which could further destabilize the political landscape. Howey suggests that Musk's involvement, whether intentional or not, might contribute to a scenario where the boundaries of political behavior and governance are increasingly blurred, potentially leading to a new form of political engagement or disruption. The piece also touches on the broader context of how social media and influential figures like Musk can impact public discourse and policy, especially in an era where traditional checks and balances are perceived to be weakening.
