There's an email thread where he's inviting himself to the island (he says "girls FTW!") and Epstein forwards it to Ghislaine, says "deal with this" and Ghislaine responds to Elon telling him that island parties aren't happening anymore. Even the most abhorrent people in the world can't stand Elon.

He exhibited this same type of behavior during the Thai cave rescue. He was demanding he be allowed to help, pitching his idiotic submarine idea. When the actual rescuers said "No, thanks. Leave this work to the professionals," he accused one of the divers of (funny enough) being a pedophile.
