As long as the “pro sensible” regulation is about subsidizing his companies.

No, he's been on the record admiring NASA and the FAA, even auto regulators, and has called for regulation of AI.

Regulation favors incumbents, and SpaceX and Tesla are the incumbents when it comes to private spaceflight and electric vehicles. Companies call for regulation on their own industries in order to influence the shapes of those regulations to their own advantage and put up barriers to future competition.

Of course he “admires NASA” that pours money into SpaceX.
