Ted Cruz Asked The Internet For Elon Musk Questions. You Know What Happened.

Sen. Ted Cruz may not want to pose some of these questions to Elon Musk.

On Wednesday, the President Donald Trump-devoted Texas Republican sought advice from his 6.9 million followers on the Musk-owned platform X, formerly Twitter, when he asked:

“If you were having a beer with @elonmusk and you could ask him ANYTHING, what question(s) would you ask him?”

If you were having a beer with @elonmusk and you could ask him ANYTHING, what question(s) would you ask him?

The majority of commenters heaped fawning praise on the tech billionaire, who Trump has tasked with gutting public spending and jobs through the nonofficial Department of Government Efficiency.

Some X users said they would just “profusely thank” Musk and kick back and enjoy their beer with him, while others pitched new company ideas and a few proposed marriage.

There was plenty of snark, though, with critics asking the world’s richest person to explain that salute, mocking him over his relationship with Trump and one even suggesting he was “revered by society’s cringest social strata.”

Where did his morals go?

I would ask him why he hasn’t scrutinized his government contracts.

But we know that you would never ask that question. You don’t represent the people of Texas. Just yourself. https://t.co/1DSjAZLe55

What’s it like being revered by society’s cringest social strata?
