#Biographer
This has been my mantra as a Trump biographer.

And now as a Musk biographer, too.

Let the sunlight in.

pretty much everything that has come out about Elon Musk makes Walter Isaacson look like a really shitty biographer.

Actually I know at least one Trump biographer who has been saying this for some time and been ignored
Journalists are trying to understand Trump’s irrational behavior, and are generally unwilling to consider the possibility that it's not some grand strategy, but a madman with increasingly diminished mental faculties.
There Is No Method to Trump’s Madness. He’s Simply Insane.
His defenders try to apply reason to his erratic, nonsensical decisions. That’s a fool’s errand—but fools abound in this administration.

Elon Musk is—I say this advisedly, as a biographer of his life—the absolute worst.

Doesn’t everyone love a biographer?

I think it's weird we are calling Seth Abramson a musk biographer just because he says he's a musk biographer?

I’m a Trump biographer and a Musk biographer.

And I’m telling you...the latter is harder.

Elon does more abominable things daily than Trump. By a lot. He’s a firehose of horror, and I’m finding it extremely hard to keep up with his malevolence.

He’s truly the worst person I’ve ever written about.

Interesting that his biographer Michael Wolf is giving him PR advice.

Had to fire my bad-tempered biographer. Irritable Boswell Syndrome.

I looked up “Elon Musk biographer” on Urban Dictionary and to my surprise it did not mean anything gross

September 1, 2026 at 12:00 AM
I still think it's funny Seth Abramson just decided to start calling himself "musk's biographer" and the press was happy to parrot it

And there it is.

(I listened to the audio and watched the video myself, and yes, that is *exactly* what the biographer said in this University of Cambridge address.)

This isn't about Musk lying to his biographer, nor is it about his biographer credulously believing his lies, and not checking (though there have been stories about that, too). It's about his biographer lying to the reader.
