"Let's Build Another Tunnel!"
Third Drabble about Musk Wanting to Go Home
“Hello, Elon?”
“Yes, Mr.President.”
“Let’s scrap our plans for the Russian tunnel. Let’s build one from the White House new ballroom and bunker to Mar-a-Lago instead.”
“What?? Why?”
“I want to escape the media. If I move underground they’ll never know where I go. They’ll just never know.”
“Ah, I see. No can do, Mr.President.”
“But why, Elon, why?”
“First, it’s too long, running through the entire country. Will take me decades to complete even with my advanced boring machines. Second, I need to explore space. I wanna go home!”
“Me too, Elon! How about a tunnel to Bedminster then?”
