Or was probably recruited by Russia's intelligence when (in)famously trying to purchase Russian ICBMs to create a greenhouse photo-op on Mars.

I'm sure they (and many others) have tried recruiting him at multiple points, but if the Russians had wanted to recruit him back then, they'd have sold him a launch rather than laughing in his face, and consequently SpaceX likely wouldn't have happened at all.

As a previously huge Musk fanboy, I must admit that I was trying to grasp at straws at the point of TFA, and many other points prior.
At one time, I thought maybe Musk's brain was a victim of some microwave brain->mush weapon or something. Then, I thought it was all about when he went from not realizing his gains to getting the biggest single pay day in history, and having to write a multi-billion dollar tax check that fried his brain.
In the most recent years, I thought that he flipped personalities, and somehow became an easily influenced person for some reason [0], who might believe things that a person like Sacks tells him.
When he gave a Nazi salute to the world, twice... well, it doesn't matter what my theories were anymore. There is no denying exactly who he is now.
I still wonder, was he always this person? If so, top .0001% acting skills.

Regardless, Reuters cannot be trusted with reporting in Musk, they’ve demonstrated that too many times. Kinda shame since otherwise they’ve been good.
