Now, just as love expands so that a parent can love a second and third child as much as the first, apparently political hatred can expand, too.

While the hatred for President Trump has not abated, and in fact has grown because of many of his executive orders, the hate in the hearts of many liberals has expanded to cover Elon Musk, too.

I mentioned in a column a couple of years ago that I am in a men's book club. We have just finished reading a lengthy but easy-to-read biography of Musk by Walter Isaacson.

I have never read a book that made me feel so unsuccessful. I have felt good about being able to help thousands of people during my career as a teacher, lawyer, judge and congressman, usually in small ways, but still very important to those people.

But everything Musk did (and is doing) was HUGE, and almost everything has seemingly turned to gold. Forbes Magazine estimated his net worth by 2025 as $397 billion and said he is the world's richest man.
