Elon Musk, according to Stephen Colbert, “is destroying the state like a Tesla in self-driving method.”

Skilfully describing the chaotic and disturbing position in Washington, D. C.— the wrecking ball allies of Donald Trump are improperly taking to the U. S. government — is difficult. But Stephen Colbert had a brilliant comparison on Tuesday’s” The Late Show”, likening the condition, which is of course being spearheaded by Elon Musk, to Musk’s personal faulty goods.

Colbert addressed that first by describing Musk as” a very sad, very lonely little boy who had all the money in the world yet could not buy a single drop of cool.” Musk is not in a government position but has been illegally given access to lots of critical federal databases and companies.

Elon, Colbert continued,” But he was able to buy his method into our state, and he’s now blowing it up like a Tesla and using self-driving style in just the past few weeks.”

” In just the past couple of weeks, Musk and his henchmen have commandeered, among other things, the Office of Personnel Management, the federal government’s human resources department”, Colbert explained. “You’re the richest man on earth. Do you want to get over HR? Why didn’t you become a fun businessman like Richard Branson”?

At this, Colbert brought up a picture of Branson. ” Here he is kite surfing, wearing a naked girl on his back like a Jansport handbag. Or the Dyson gentleman. He invented a vacuum and grows delicious fruits. Then, Elon, you could be the next Dyson. You never quit sucking”, Colbert joked.

Colbert continued to criticize the Tesla owner, noting that Musk “brought along a crack team of new children, a group of engineers between the ages of 19 and 24” who are carrying out his orders to effectively destroy the U.S. state. As long as their mission doesn’t involve renting a car with unrestricted access to the government servers, they should be “unstoppable.”

Colbert mocked Musk’s plan to use AI to make spending cut determinations, joking,” ah yes, famously accurate AI, the cutting edge technology that told Google users to eat at least one small rock per day. A rock is the only way to get rid of the scissors, which AI instructed you to use first, though I know that sounds stupid on the surface. So, so delicious”.

Then Colbert made a joke about long-running rumors and the bombshell Wall Street Journal report that claimed Musk used several hard drugs, including Ketamine. ( Musk is strictly by prescription. )

How is Musk even permitted to do any of this, then?” Colbert asked, noting that Musk’s” Department of Government Efficiency” isn’t actually part of the government. ” He’s not an elected official. He’s just some guy who gave Trump$ 288 million. Well, to smear a thin coat of legitimacy on Musk’s rampage, the White House gave him the title of special government employee. Yeah, special government employee. It’s superficial and super important. It even comes with a plastic badge from Hasbro and a kit that reads “my first vile of ketamine.”

” If all of this, if all of this, feels weird and unconstitutional”, Colbert added, “yeah”.

There’s more of course. Watch the entire monologue right below.
