Spacecraft are one thing, Mars another. By the evidence, he is satisfied with where SpaceX and Tesla have got to. And, renewable energy generation and storage development and deployment.

Or maybe he wants to turn Twitter into a bully pulpit, and drive government spending where he thinks it should go... That's the 4D chess argument.

The significant ramping up of SpaceX production and work to add launch locations is a strong indicator that he’s not satisfied.

I don't think Elon needs or even could have any more of a bully pulpit than he already has.

He has a pulpit, but it is not bully.
