Is Elon Musk really pathetic enough to cheat in ‘Path of Exile 2?’ Yes, he’s admitted it
As if there weren’t enough reasons to hate Donald Trump sycophant Elon Musk, you can add gaming charlatan to the list. The billionaire has been accused of faking his so-called expertise in the game Path of Exile 2, and at last he’s now admitted it.
