Elon was essentially praising Vivek on his "originality" but there's nothing original, new or refreshing about what Vivek is saying. He's following a carefully formatted strategy of key talking points, buzz words and ideals that stupid people eat up. He's betting that he can get by on his ability to learn the lingo of the Trump cult and turn it around in his favor. He doesn't even fully believe what he says, but he studied what people want to hear. Unfortunately, he missed a few points.
