SpaceX has a very easy path to profitability. They may even be profitable right now. And if they aren't, it's because they reinvest everything in R&D for starship, so if the shareholders decided that they just wanted to make cash on the short term they could just stop reinvestments in R&D and milk the satellite launch market, they are making a profit on every one of those launch and customers are queueing to be on a falcon rocket.
As for Tesla, their last quarter was profitable, sure they aren't profitable year over year yet, but saying that 'neither of his companies are remotely profitable' seems pretty far from the reality.
