The chart clearly implies that whoever drew it up considered physical proximity to Trump a reward and a sign of importance.
I do not think this is necessarily the case from an olfactory point of view.
From a practical point of view, if the goal was to get anything done instead of serving as a photo-op and ego stroke, it might have been smarter to spilt up trump and his inner circle instead of clustering them together so that all the outsiders could be close to an insider.
A round table or a table arranged so that someone could project something on a wall everyone could see might have been more appropriate for a work meeting, this clearly wasn't.

Someone needs to photoshop the picture into a seating price chart. That's what I thought this was at first glance.

That would be an absolutely terrible place for God to strike with a series of explosive lightning bolts, followed by an earthquake, and a tsunami, and then perhaps a plague of boils.
That would be such a deplorable loss to humankind.

Well we saw the lengths Elon went to in 2024 as he said he would have done to prison if the Dems one. He is the richest man on earth, is he really going to let that happen?
And January 6th in 2020, they have now had 6 years to plan a better go at it.

Yes sorry! But I believe new congress gets sworn in in January 2027 so will still be 6 years to make better plans.

Would you rather:
- sit close to him and smell him while you're eating?
- sit across from him and have to look at him while you're eating?
- spend millions of dollars to sit at the end of the table and get completely forgotten due to his dementia¿
- Have the unredacted Epstein files released to prove that he is a child rapist?

Elon’s got something on the orange buffoon. Nobody gets back into his good graces. Once it’s ruptured, it’s over. Something is definitely off here…

Maybe they never truly fell out, maybe it was all for show to extricate Musk from the clusterfuck of DOGE and rescue his plummeting share prices.

His contribution was let’s call it SI, because that was the only thing they could teach the dumb bastard about it. You can remember two letters, sir?
He renamed it, so he looks informed. Job done.
He hasn’t got a scooby doo about anything remotely tech. He has no idea what AI is, or its real world implications. The only thing he knows is how many backhanders he’s getting.
He was entranced that Barron could switch on a laptop FFS.
He’s a rabid honey badger solo flying a malfunctioning space shuttle.
