... it was probably the shareholders of Tesla who pushed him to step back. Upsetting Tesla's key demographic of lefty eco-narcissists has probably not been a good business move. Tesla sales have fallen as their vehicles have become targets of political violence and there's no way they'd let that stand.

"Trump really does not like people who get more press then he does. (media whore)"

I doubt that was a factor. While there had previously been perfectly reasonable predictions that Musk and Trump had egos that were bound to clash and have a falling out at some point or another, the way things look right now makes that seem unlikely to have been the case. Wasn't it just a couple of weeks ago that Trump bought a new Tesla in solidarity with Musk? And unlike his first administration, the current Trump administration includes a team of people who'll stroke his ego which is why he's now less obsessed with press covfefe than he was before.
