Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, SpaceX, and X Corp, has become a notable figure in U.S. political discussions, ahead of the 2024 election. Musk, who once identified as politically moderate and has supported both Democrats and Republicans in past elections, has recently shown a shift towards conservative views.
Musk publicly endorsed Donald Trump and has been campaigning for the Republican presidential nominee. He has also donated $132million to elect Trump and he has been promised a cabinet position by Trump if he comes to power.
Known for his controversial stances, he has been critical of Biden government;s stand on immigration, carbon taxes, and voices concerns over topics like AI, climate change, and population decline. His political impact has extended internationally, with high-profile opinions on issues like the Russia-Ukraine conflict and U.S.-China relations.
SpaceX and its investors have agreed to purchase as much as $1.25 billion of insider shares in a transaction valuing Elon Musk’s company at about $350 billion.
Elon Musk is possibly taking his Donald Trump bromance to the next level as he's rumoured to be eyeing a Palm Beach penthouse minutes away from Mar-a-Lago.
